The videos always have many reshares and a huge response. Khaby believes it is precisely videos without any words and only with gestures which are the key to his success. As he said for The New York Times, this is how he communicates using a "global language" which everyone understands. 

The popular hashtag #KhabyToNumberOne which advertised his content also helped him to get to number one on TikTok. It was probably started by fans, who were successful with their goal.
