What About the TikTok Algorithm?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The TikTok algorithm will favor the use of already trending hashtags, music, and content, increasing your chances of landing on the coveted For You Page.

Post a Lot of Videos, Often<\/span><\/h2>\n

Content is king (or queen) on TikTok. Now that you have a bit of inspiration as to what you should be posting, it\u2019s time to start filling your account with videos. One of the keys to going viral on TikTok is to post a lot<\/em>. Did you shoot a few takes on a trend but aren’t sure which one to post? Try a few. TikTok rewards accounts that post often.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To increase your video post volume, consider posting a variety of video types. Did you just learn the latest trending dance? Post it. Did you spend a couple of hours making a hilarious video with special effects? Post it. Did you simply record yourself telling a story about something that happened during your day? Post it. They\u2019re all<\/span> good TikTok ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The thing about TikTok is that anyone can <\/span>go viral<\/span>, but you never know which of your videos is going to be the one to bring you TikTok fame. The more videos you post, the better your chances of going viral become.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep up To Date with News and Current Events<\/span><\/h2>\n

We probably don\u2019t have to tell you this, but there is a lot going on in the world right now. If you want to go viral on TikTok, it\u2019s important that you stay up-to-date with news and current events. A lot of the time, trending hashtags will be in response to stories around current events. Adding trending hashtags (where relevant) to your videos can help them show up in more For You pages since they\u2019re already getting an increase in views and engagements. Make sure your videos are relevant though, otherwise they\u2019ll quickly get skipped over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Discover Page is your best friend. If you\u2019re looking for <\/span>good TikTok ideas<\/span> that align with news and current events, try incorporating some other <\/span>TikTok<\/span> trends you’re already familiar with. For example, if there is a <\/span>trending<\/span> song or audio clip that is already popular, you can use that along with a reaction video to create a trendy video. You could hit the jackpot on <\/span>trending hashtags<\/span> twice and you\u2019ll be able to show off how in tune with the world and current events you are.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Just make sure that you aren\u2019t being tone deaf. You don\u2019t want to go viral for the wrong<\/em> reasons. Make sure what you are doing in your TikTok video won\u2019t come off as insensitive to the news story or current event. Good vibes only, please.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make an Impression in the First 3 Seconds<\/span><\/h2>\n

Let\u2019s be real. When you are scrolling through TikTok, there is a short time frame for a video to catch your attention. That\u2019s because TikTok thrives off of the FYP scroll and short videos. The app itself is designed for casual viewing, so videos have to immediately catch a user\u2019s attention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The average TikTok user will wait 1 to 3 seconds to make an initial judgment of a video and determine whether or not to keep scrolling or to stay and watch it to completion. That means you have just a few seconds to grab TikTok users\u2019 attention. If you can grab their attention within the first 3 seconds of your video, the user will be more likely to stay on and watch your video to completion. And the more time that is spent on your video, the more likely TikTok is to feature it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wondering <\/span>how to get a lot of views on TikTok<\/span>? Keep your videos short, with something eye-catching in the first few seconds. This can mean something like giving them a preview of what\u2019s to come in a tutorial video or teasing a prank with text overlay on your video.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
