Looking for help and guidance on TikTok ? I’m burnt out.
Posted by on March 24, 2021 at 10:28 amHey! I hope this is the correct place to post this.
I’m wondering if anyone has some advice or guidance for me when it comes to TikTok. I’ve been making content as a hobby over the last 5 weeks, hoping to grow my tiktok channel in order to grow my other social channels that I use.
I’ve been making videos all focused on ‘Gaming’ particularly Warzone and a couple Minecraft. These vary from Gaming clips, to comedy sketches, to viral trends.
Over the past 5 weeks I’ve uploaded about 43 videos, but deleted 3 as I thought they were terrible in the end.
It takes me at least an hour to sometimes 2 and a half hours to get these videos to a standard I think looks “professional” and in some cases as good or even better than videos I see on my fyp with millions of views from users who only have 5 uploads and a weird profile pic?
However all my videos are around 400 views. I upload before bed, after 30 minutes it gets 400 views, it stops. I go to bed. Wake up, another maybe 100-150 views during the day. Why is this happening? What am I doing wrong? Some of my videos of rations of likes/comment of 25-40%. But even the viral ones on my fyp have like 6%. I use 5 hashtags that I see on viral videos similar to mine.
Please, any advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated ?

Can you link to the channel?

For the amount of effort you’re putting into your TikToks, you may do a lot better on YouTube. It sucks but it seems that just dumb, quickly made content flys on TikTok. I swear the less effort I put into things the better they did.
I’ve also heard TT looks badly on you deleting videos for some reason.
You could also try posting at different times of the day too to see when your audience is most active.
Also make sure you’re making the most out of hashtags 🙂

Instead of making content you THINK will make it viral by copying hashtags and the exact way others have made it to the fyp – just do your own thing, make content you enjoy yourself, people will appreciate it. You will find a niche and it will be much more profitable and satisfying in the end compared to making carbon copies of content people can ready consume somewhere else.
Have you asked yourself: why should someone watch your gaming video and not the one that you copied the hashtags from? What makes them different.
