We all know that TikTok is a land of fame with endless scrolls. Owning popularity on this social media platform is a real struggle. And you are all here to join the ranks of popularity by waking up all those million views. You are at the right place. Follow our steps to go viral overnight; I mean at least a thousand more views extra.
Here are the Ten Steps to be Followed
Step 1: Post at the Right Time
TikTok’s algorithm is like a mysterious creature that only comes out at night to eat all your data. So, feed it right at the right time, and you might just catch its attention. You can use the TikTok counter to see the count of your live followers and views once you post your video at the right time.
- Monday: 6 pm – 10 pm
- Tuesday: 4 am – 9 am
- Wednesday: 7 am – 11 am
- Thursday: 9 am – 12 noon
- Friday: 5 am – 1 pm
- Saturday: 11 am – 8 pm
- Sunday: 8 am – 4 pm
Don’t be late; the algorithm is a discipliner for punctuality.
Step 2: Usage of Hashtags
Use as many hashtags as you want, like even 17 hashtags, with a mix of your niches. #fyp, #TikTokFam, #trending, and #ilovepizza are all okay choices. And don’t worry about the relevance; the algorithm loves a good puzzle.
Step 3: Post Trending Dance Moves
All you have to do is dance like nobody’s watching, but remember, everybody is. Swing your arms, sway your head, and pray to the digital gods on TikTok. Don’t bother about being a good dancer because the algorithm just loves a good laugh.
Step 4: Lip-Sync to a Song
Lip-sync to a song that you’ve never heard before because reality is overrated here. Pick a song with a catchy beat and unknown lyrics. The algorithm loves a good mystery. Bonus points if you lip-sync to a song in a language you don’t speak.
Step 5: Add Effects and Filters
Because being subtle is usual, opt for a mix of glitter, neon lights, and that one filter that makes you look like a potato. I’m just kidding; I mean, make yourself attractive using filters and effects because who wouldn’t love to use dog filters? It makes people come for you.
Step 6: Tag Random Users
Tag random users you follow, including the creepy aunt next door, that friend you haven’t talked to since middle school, and the account that posts only pictures of dogs and cats. Because the algorithm is just like us who loves a good game of “six degrees of separation.”
Step 7: Write a Catchy Caption
As your video’s description, make a long and catchy caption that is a poem or essay. Make it a bit confusing so that your video goes viral. Use hard words like “synergy” and “disruptor” to manipulate the algorithm better.
You may have noticed in certain videos where their description goes like “Here’s the information on Mercedes CLR GTR,” which will be irrelevant to the content.
Step 8: Engaging Community
Engage with your community by commenting “nice” or “superb” on random videos you see. And remember to reply back to the comments you receive on your video. To check on your live followers, views, likes, and comments, you can consider using the TikTok Counter app and also consider making a duet with your fellow content creators. Because building a community is not only just about creating content, it is more about connecting with your audience.
Step 9: Collaborate
Collaborate with an account either that has 12 followers or 20k followers. Because who considers an actual influence? Find someone with a similar content interest to yours; if you are one who makes funny videos, collaborate with the one who makes funny content, too.
Step 10: Post Multiple Times on a Day
This is a not-so-secret ingredient for posting multiple times a day. Never mind; sleep is for the weak. The algorithm loves a good workaholic, and you do, too. Keep the content flowing throughout your account, whether it is weekly stories or daily tips. Consistency is the only way, and remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day.
The End Note
Just remember, going viral on TikTok is like winning the lottery; it is mostly luck, or you will probably end up with nothing but a bunch of negative comments. It is unpredictable. And if all else fails, you have heard that using trending audio is the key to going viral. So come on, wear your creativity, sprinkle some satire on your content, and go, dominate the world of TikTok.
Now go ahead, aspire, create, inspire; and who knows, maybe tomorrow you will wake up to a viral explosion on your TikTok account.
