The Shadow Ban Myth Buster

One of the most frequent questions I encounter daily from creators is, "Am I shadow banned?" The answer is... No. 🤷‍♂️

The infamous shadow ban concept implies that creators believe their views have significantly reduced, feeling like their content isn't being pushed despite their loyal following. However, the truth is, this simply does not exist. 👀

What does exist is NR (Not Recommended) content. When the algorithm perceives content as low quality, in violation of guidelines, or part of an oversaturated trend on the app, it won't prioritise it for the For You Page (FYP) or even to your followers. 😢

There are several steps to assist in avoiding NR status, such as ensuring good lighting, favorable angles, quality audio, and adhering to community guidelines. Essentially, it boils down to creating high-quality content! 📈

The algorithm is an unpredictable entity that operates beyond our control. Its primary function is to boost content that engages viewers at a particular moment, which may not always align with your content style or niche. 👨‍🏫

The key here is persistence. Don't give up; keep creating! Your content will resurface, as it always does. This is especially crucial with TikTok Shop content, which is a new territory, viewed and engaged with differently. Some followings may take time to adapt, but by consistently sharing your authentic self, success will follow. 🔥

Don't be disheartened by the temporary setbacks. Keep pushing out your content, stay true to yourself, and the rewards will come. Stay strong! 💪
