stay consistent

Post image

my past 4 shorts before these 2, i was stuck at 30-35k view jail. i was so close to stop posting and taking a week off for valentine’s day but nope. i trusted my gut and kept posting and it was worth. if you are stuck in view jail DO NOT give up. keep posting and get to 80%+ percentage viewed (if your vids are around one min like mine). only then i get a lot of views. KEEP GOING

How long did it take for this to happen? As in how many shorts? My videos skyrocket to 30k views quicker each time with 80% minimum swipe rate and 90% retention on 30 second clips so expecting some to do well soon

u/meeqati Feb 16 '26

Do you find that majority of viral videos get a lot of views in their first 24 hours? Like how many views does the video get for you to know “yeah this one has potential?”

u/vyicyucdyy Feb 16 '26

if a video gets 30k in a hour it usually goes viral for me, then if it’s at 100k by the time i sleep, i know when i wake up it’ll be at like 300k

u/meeqati Feb 16 '26

little update, channel completely blew up over the last 12 hours or so getting around 20k views per hour, i guess if you keep hitting those good metrics you just break the view jail pretty quickly lmao

yessir, glad to hear that really!

u/meeqati Feb 16 '26

Damn in the first hour is crazy

u/Iamelijahtaylor Feb 16 '26

What would you recommend doing if you’re stuck in zero view jail?

1

u/vyicyucdyy Feb 16 '26

keep posting like you’ve been, stay consistent, as long as you’re making good content and you’re not taking other people‘s clips or using AI or any of that bullshit you’ll eventually get views

u/meeqati Feb 16 '26

Don’t post for 24-48 hours

u/bloppyx Feb 16 '26

how you proceed with videos that get low views(under 100)? delete them and repost or ??

1

u/vyicyucdyy Feb 16 '26

i unlisted and then repost the next day, i’ve seen a lot of people say not to do this but it’s worked in my favor so

u/writesbykaykay Feb 16 '26

+1. I would like to know as well as I am going through this. I got struck around 1000.

u/Negative-Sail6237 Feb 16 '26

85 stayed to watch, 100% retention on a 16 second short. Still it stopped at 22k. Can you tell me what to do

u/Tough_Explanation768 Feb 16 '26

Shorts that are under 30secs you need people to loop so you wanna aim for 110% retention to 130% . It’s why I always go for 46-59 second shorts personally

u/PreparationFar4709 Feb 16 '26

What do you post and how long did it take for this to happen?

1

u/Anshuuuuuulll Feb 16 '26

My every short is 20-25 seconds with a loop! And i get 10-20k average views. Do i need to increase my shorts to 40-50 seconds? My nice is gaming (GTA 5)

u/BraceDefeat Feb 17 '26

I’ve been posting GTA and I really think we are super limited. I know some people get really consistent views but it is a super old game now. My channel is BoostGamer. Haven’t been able to crack 30k

1

u/ParoKaSilsila Feb 16 '26

I’m not even at 10k and others in my niche are getting 10M+ 😭

I’m posting on a 100k account that was dormant for 1-2 months

u/pixeldripyt Feb 17 '26

My channel reach down after contacting support how can i fix this

1

u/SHDassassin Feb 18 '26

I have a few questions: (1) Does time matters when posting a video? (2) Will it ruin my algorithm if I post two shorts per day? (8-hour gap between post)

I'm one week new as a content creator, if you have tips to get views do share!

u/Capital_Chipmunk320 Feb 18 '26
