If youâre trying to gain visibility on your account, one of the most effective ways to do it is to go live. Like A TON.
TikTok truly favors those that go live because LIVE = THE MOST TIME ON APP.
The longer youâre live, the more people will join.
Weâve seen live feeds where some huge TikTok influencers just sit there and have thousands of viewers (a little creepy, but whatever is clever!)
Basically, TikTok will send a notification out to all of your followers that will stay affixed at the top of your followers' notification page for the whole duration of your live.
Also, your entire profile will show that youâre âLIVEâ so if anybody catches your video on your FYP, they have to watch you live.
Also, new people will follow you from your live because they discover you through the FYP.
However, you do have to have 1K followers to go live, so keep on posting and keep working up to it!
Another trick we learned from @mormmom is that you can integrate different games in your live. Encouraging people to engage or like on other followers' content for a shoutout helps incentivize and a fun place for people that will want to come back and watch your lives each time.
