GHANAIAN SOCIAL MEDIA TREND: A look at the viral video tactics of "Solidgist" and the engagement strategies employed to achieve rapid growth on social media platforms.

This suggests a deliberate attempt to game the algorithm and highlights the challenges faced by content creators in gaining visibility. The video's success, however, points to the effectiveness of certain strategies and the power of short-form video content in capturing attention. Further research could explore the broader trends in social media engagement and the techniques used to achieve virality in Ghana.
