TikTok is maze, let’s be honest. It’s not fun to grow your channel in the early days because you may get 100 or 1,000 views. It’s not even close to being at a level where you can get paid. And that hurts a little bit. Luckily, we have compiled a really interesting SEO-driven guide that looks at those majestic things that make TikTok a reality for your future business or career.
Thinking of Hashtags
Hashtags still live happily within the TikTok landscape. Yes, we said it. Whilst many people are dying and don’t help with search or feed appearance, they let the algorithm understand what your videos and channel are about.
If you constantly post about Nike Shoes, for example, then using hashtags relating to Nike shoes will gradually push your videos to those viewing videos about Nike shoes. This will help you gain influence; it’s that simple. This also applies if you’re creating content about culture, lifestyle, or technology.

SubscribePick Your Niche
Let’s be honest; we all feared being put in a corner. If you’re a creator, you don’t want to lose money opportunities if you only create videos on trains or only if you focus on motorbikes, but you also want to make videos about cars and makeup. Well, generalising is your worst enemy. It sucks because it doesn’t help your chances with the algorithm. It’s essentially the quickest way to kill your Tik account.
Track Your Analytics
Understanding your viewership is just as important as creating content. If you know what gains traction, you can make a plan, and that plan can take you places. With the help of TikTok projection tools and search insights within TikTok, you can master the art of content creation. Here are a few things look at:
- Search: See what hashtags and terms people are finding your videos through
- Comments: Are you creating enough discussion within your remarks? Do your hooks need improvement?
- Shares: Yep, finding out how many people share your content is important. Word of mouth is how you go viral.
Lastly, Review Your Hooks
A big important part of what gets people hooked are hooks. The first six seconds of your video is important. Review how you introduce your videos. From chatting to showing, audio and visual elements are both super important to create engaging content. Think of ways to improve, test, and keep building content.
