It wasn't even pushed to the algorithm.

And it was just a 3 page slideshow with the first slide being from google but with text on it.

Could this be the reason?

However, earlier I was banned from one of my TikTok accounts.

Yeah that’s probably the issue, TikTok doesn’t push reused or low effort slideshow content, especially if it’s just images from Google, it flags it as unoriginal and can give you 0 views. If you were banned before, your new account might be slightly flagged too, so reach is worse at the start, best move is to post original content even if it’s simple, use your own clips, add some movement, keep it short with a strong hook in the first second and test a few posts to see if you start getting that initial 100 to 300 view push.
 
Reused content from Google is a major red flag for TikTok's algorithm, and adding text overlays is not enough to make it original. I've seen accounts with similar issues, and the key to recovery is creating short, engaging clips with a strong hook in the first second, using at least 50% original footage. One of my tests showed that accounts posting 3-4 times a day with original 15-second clips gained 25% more followers in 2 weeks compared to those posting low-effort slideshows.
 
Hello, that's more common than you think, and it doesn't mean your content is bad, almost everyone has been there at the beginning, and the key is not to get discouraged, the first thing to check is that there isn't a technical problem, sometimes youtube takes a while to process the video, and the views don't appear until several hours later, or the video gets stuck in processing without warning, it will also check that you didn't accidentally upload it as unlisted instead of public, which is a classic mistake. if everything is technically fine, the problem is that the algorithm doesn't yet know who to show your content to.

In that case, you have to give the algorithm a hand, share the video manually in facebook groups, forums in your niche, or on your personal profile, the idea is to get the first views and some interaction so that youtube understands what the video is about and who might be interested, you don't need hundreds of views, a few dozen well targeted views are enough for the algorithm to start testing your content with similar audiences.
 
Try posting content during specific time frames, such as peak online times. For example, 10 a.m., 2 p.m., and 6 p.m.
You definitely shouldn't have zero reach.

try a video and see what happens. in the organic dropshipping space, ive been seeing people complain about delayed views. they've been seeing views after a few hours.

stop using google images and start using unique, high quality footage on a fresh proxy or a different phone to bypass the detection

It is likely related to TikTok detecting your device; after all, your previous account was banned. Logging into different accounts from the same device can also result in restrictions.
 
try another 5 videos
and if it still 0 view, change the account
because that account has been marked
 
It could be because it is a new account, sometimes platforms like TikTok do not push the first few posts right away. Also, using images from Google can sometimes limit reach, especially if the content looks reused. Try posting a few more original videos and see if views start picking up.
 
Nah, 0 views on a first video happens, especially if it's a basic slideshow with google images, that content usually doesn't vibe with the algorithm. Honestly though, getting banned on another account earlier is probably why your new stuff is getting suppressed
 
It can happen on new accounts especially if the content looks reused or low value first video might not get pushed much using google images can also limit reach try posting original content with better hooks and keep uploading consistently it usually picks up after a few posts
 
If your earlier account has been banned before, you should probably clean up your device first by resetting all the data in the device before you download TikTok again and set up your new account.

Then the registering part is one of the most important part that will decide whether your videos will get views or not. You should not make a post immediately right after register, but you should watch videos for at least 15-30 minutes a day for about 3-4 days. Then you can start to make a post and gain views almost immediately after that.
 
Slideshows using unedited images from Google are often flagged by TikTok's "Originality" filters, which can prevent the video from being pushed to the For You Page entirely. To avoid being treated as low-quality or reused content, it is crucial to use unique metadata and significant edits for every upload
 
Yeah, using Google images in a basic slideshow likely got flagged as unoriginal by TikTok, especially combined with a previously banned account which can reduce initial reach.
 
Zero views means shadowban or flagged content reused google images trigger tiktok filters delete that video post fresh original content from your phone directly
 
A 3 page slide show is absolute garbage of the highest order.

No wonder you didn't get pushed.

Turn the 3 pager into a quick video and you will get at least 200ish views.

You'll get pushed to more than 200 if your video has high engagement and it keeps people watching.

But let's be real here it's unlikely you'll get a one hit wonder from one video unless you already have mastered Tiktok.

So your goal is to make more videos until you master it.
