You landed the perfect flip, filmed it clean, and posted it with a decent caption — so why did it get 47 views? Turns out, going viral on TikTok isn't just about the flip itself. We dug into the algorithm, talked to creators who've cracked the code, and broke down exactly what separates a forgettable clip from a 100-million-view moment.
