I swear, every time I scroll through TikTok, I see the most random, low-effort clips with thousands of likes and comments. Someone films their dog staring at a wall? Viral. Someone says “POV: you’re eating cereal”? Boom—500k views. Meanwhile, I’m over here, editing, syncing sounds, following every trend, and… nothing. 200 views if I’m lucky. 😂

What’s the secret? Do I need to drop my quality and just post whatever random thought pops into my head? Is it all about timing, the right hashtags, or is there some kind of TikTok algorithm god I need to pray to?

Seriously though, if you’ve had a TikTok randomly blow up, how did it happen? Is there some trick I’m missing? Or are we just at the mercy of the algorithm gods? 😅

Drop your tips, stories, or just tell me I’m not alone in this struggle.
