A few years ago, there wasn’t even a term called TikTok star, but now, it’s all the rage! While some of these TikTokers blew up with their excellent dancing skills, others gained fame by showcasing their expertise in makeup. But with the number of users increasing every minute, it’s not a cakewalk to earn that fame. And that’s why we’re here with the ultimate TikTok hacks to help you become the next TikTok star. 

Simply creating a video and posting it on TikTok won’t necessarily get you the number of views or followers you desire. For that, you can either pray for lady luck to be on your side or you could just follow our TikTok hacks to ace the game. Look at some of the easiest TikTok hacks that will show you how to become a TikTok star:   

1. Post At Peak Hours

Every TikToker wants an impressive number of views and likes on their TikTok video. However, dreaming of it and achieving it are two vastly different things. Sometimes, you could post one of the most fun, interesting videos and yet not get that many views. Despite using trending audio and all the relevant hashtags, your video can still lack views if your audience isn’t active during that time. 

Hence, you must figure out the time when your followers or target audience are most active and post then. This will give your post the necessary boost it needs, facilitating a large amount of engagement. Better engagement in the first few hours of the post also means higher chances of your video reaching other users.  

2. Remember Your Video Completion Rate

The easiest way for a video to blow up on TikTok is if it reaches the ‘For You’ page and eventually the ‘Discover’ page. But reaching there isn’t as easy as it sounds. 

The TikTok algorithm makes sure that only videos that are interesting and worth the audience’s attention reach that page. So, how can you reach the ‘For You’ page? Simple, by ensuring that the audience watches your video right till the end. 

Video completion rate is a major factor in determining whether your video is worth being pushed to TikTok’s ‘For You’ page or not. So, start making videos that not only grab the attention of the viewer from the start but also keep them engrossed till the very end. 

P.S. Create short and crisp videos to increase your chances of reaching the ‘For You’ page. 

3. Engage With TikTokers

This might come as a surprise to you, but the more you interact with other TikTokers, the higher the chances of you earning genuine followers. After all, social media is all about networking!

So start liking and commenting on other TikTokers’ videos and they’ll probably return the favour. And when you receive likes, comments and shares, that’s when your video will get picked up to be featured on the ‘For You’ page. 

However, please make sure that you like and comment on the content you genuinely like. If you aren’t genuine with your engagement, it can easily backfire and hurt your chances of going big. You can even lose followers if you try to put up an act and get caught. 

Also, do not forget to like the comments on your own TikTok videos to show appreciation. 

4. Use TikCode

TikCode is a great way to lead your followers or even potential followers to your profile. TikCode is a unique QR code assigned specifically to your TikTok account. This will help any TikTok user to easily visit your profile by simply scanning your TikCode. 

Here’s how you access your TikCode: 

• Click on the ‘Me’ on your app. 
• Once your profile opens, click on the three dots on the top right corner and select ‘Manage my account’ 
• Now tap on ‘My TikCode’. 
• Your TikCode will be displayed on the screen. Now click on save and save it to your device. 

You can use this TikCode to drive your friends and followers from other social media platforms to TikTok. This in turn will increase your followers while introducing your friends to the TikTok community.
