// Q13 / 14
Why did my views suddenly drop to zero?
Check the ordinary causes first: posting time, a smaller audience, or a slow counter. A visibility limit is one possibility, not the default.
A view counter that has not refreshed, a post published at a quiet hour, or a topic your audience ignored will look like suppression for a day. Compare several posts over a week, not a single number.
If the drop is sustained, run a scan and the manual logged-out checks. A clean result with falling reach usually means content-market fit, not punishment — the value of the scan is ruling out the invisible wall so you can focus on the real work.
