Tiktok has become the most popular app at the moment. You can go viral in a more easy and faster way rather than on other platforms if you use the right strategy. So if you want to see success on TikTok, you need to learn how to get more eyes on your content. In this article we are going to teach you how you should focus on building a following, but the most important part should emphasize how to get more views on TikTok.
Why views matter on TikTok?
Views are an important TikTok metric. The more views you get, the more your videos are shown, suggested and shared.
Also the more views you get on TikTok, the more likely you are to receive other types of engagement, comments, follows and shares. While your follow count is the most likely way to measure an account’s size, your view count (the people actually seeing your videos) shows how much engagement or like is your content.
In the following article we are going to give you tips to create more engagement and views on your videos to succeed on TikTok .
1. Add hashtags to your content
Hashtags are present in almost all social media platforms as a way to categorize, tag and search for content. In this case TikTok hashtags are used to categorize but also it can be used for trends and challenges. Using hashtags can help you to reach new audiences and more TikTok users will discover your content and boost your view count.
However, you need to be strategic about the hashtags you used .Make sure you’re using hashtags that are both relevant to your content and are popular, ensuring you can generate some reach from your hashtags.
Here are a few ways to find the best hashtags:
- Which hashtags are your competitors using?
- Start typing hashtags into the caption and let TikTok autopopulate options
- Check popular hashtags from popular sounds or trends.
- Don´t use more than three hashtags
2. Include popular music
A great way to get more views on your videos is to use popular music and sound clips to create your content. If someone likes the music clip, they can click on the spinning album in the bottom right corner to view more videos that use it, potentially leading them to discover your content.
Also the Tiktok algorithm works in a way that when you see or interact with a popular sound it is more likely that Tiktok is going to give you content that uses that sound. For that reason using trending sound can still be a great way to get more views.

One of the best ways to understand viral trends on TikTok is to spend a good bit of time actually consuming content on the platform. Take a look at similar accounts and check what they are doing and posting. Make sure you stay up-to-date on new TikTok content ideas.

Posting at the right times can also ensure higher chances of people watching your videos. According to our data, the best times to post on TikTok include:
- Tuesdays from 2 to 6 p.m.
- Wednesdays from 2 to 5 p.m.
- Thursdays from 3 to 5 p.m.
However, they can change by target, brands or country. Make sure to check your TikTok analytics to make sure you are posting based on your audience at the best time.
5. Create a lot of content
TikTok recommends posting between 1-4 times/day. It’s a good idea to share as much content as often as you can to really grow your account. Also the content you create will determine how possible this can be. If you are a streamer posting your best clips of Tiktok and creating daily content is easy but if your videos need more editing or preparation you can adapt your content to post as often as possible.
In this case it may be worth creating a social media content calendar to help plan your TikTok content in advance.
Using all of these tips can help you to not only get more viewers, but to reach new audiences, be more seeing and grow your account to a high new level.
