TikTok Shop's Mystery: Zero Comments, 30,000 Views!

TikTok Shop's Algorithm Baffles Creator: 'Zero Comments, 30,000 Views!' A recent TikTok video has highlighted the perplexing nature of the platform's shopping feature. Jordyn Slack, a content creator with a following on TikTok, shared her experience with a video that unexpectedly went viral despite having zero comments. "It's just really weird," Slack said in her video, describing how a video about small rocket balloons from two weeks ago suddenly garnered tens of thousands of views and sales. This unpredictable behavior contrasts sharply with other videos she's posted that received a lot of comments but far fewer views and sales. Slack's experience raises questions about TikTok's algorithm and its impact on creators trying to use the platform for business. The lack of transparency in how the algorithm functions makes it difficult for creators to predict which videos will perform well, creating uncertainty and frustration. While some suggest consistent posting and engagement are key, Slack's experience shows that even these strategies don't guarantee success on TikTok Shop. The story underscores the challenges faced by creators who rely on social media for income, highlighting the need for more transparency and predictability in the platform's algorithms.
