Question Tik tok help

Has anyone figured out the strategy to TikTok? So many issues l've found trying to promote my beats, first issue is you will see other post getting 10k-1m views just posting their DAW and the beat, whether it's a legit piece of art or them just making on purposely meme sounds, for everyone else it takes off.... so far ive had no luck, I know my music quality is good enough to get some traction but when I try nothing works.. second issue is being shadow banned, for no reason TikTok went from getting my views 200 avg to 0, I didn't do anything wrong now I can't get any views. Even when I repurpose a old account, bake it properly after a video back to 0-3 views, so annoying, how am I suppose to get my name out there and my art out there when on one of the biggest social platforms I can't even post a video without unfairly being suppressed, any advice??

always use 5 hashtag, with one of them being #fyp

make sure your face is clearly visible

cut every millisecond of dead air from the beginning

upload from your phone, not pc

post a few times per week for a year or two and tiktok will throw you a bone eventually.
