Part of the algorithm is that every new video created are sent to a small sample size of 1,000 random people, regardless of tags. That's why you will occasionally get videos from random people and very little views.

If the video gains some traction, it is shown to 5K-10K more people and it builds from there (internal categorizations, regional, languages, etc.).
Unlike YouTube, where titles, video length, thumbnails, metadata, subscriber count, and frequency of uploads matter the most, every video on TikTok has a chance of going viral and you don't even need to add hashtags or captions.
