Shadow Ban, Zero Views, and Bypassing
Shadow Ban
What it is: A hidden restriction on TikTok where your videos don’t appear in recommendations, get 0–10 views, and fail to gain reach, even if the post has passed moderation.
You can check if your account is shadowbanned using this bot: https://t.me/freettcheckbot
Signs of a Shadow Ban:
0 views within 10–30 minutes after posting
Instant publishing without review
Complete lack of traffic even on a high-quality creative
Reasons:
Repetitive or spammy content
Use of "overused" tags
Poor or blocked IP/VPN
Violations in BIO, username, or avatar
Mismatch between language/geo
How to get out of a shadow ban:
Uniquify the video
Reconnect the VPN, change the IP/Proxy.
Change the upload GEO (countries are randomly blocked).
Change the phone language to the target geo's language.
Upload the first video on a "clean" geo, and the rest on the target geo.
Change the Wi-Fi SSID.
Change the creative’s design (font, text, color, effects).
Bypassing "Zero Views" and Bans:
Upload the video without a description.
Without tags / with different tags.
Without text / with new text.
Without sound.
With a new avatar and BIO.
Check the IP on whoer.com and scamalytics.com — the risk should be below 15%.
