07/21/20 Daily Tip from Kiki - Sharing is Caring AND Beating the Algorithm

Aside from your videos' rewatch time, shares are one of the most important indicators of SOLID content in the TikTok algorithm.

 

Why?

 

Because every time your video gets shared, it gives an opportunity for it to be 

1) viewed by someone else and possibly shared again and 

 

2) more opportunities for the TikTok app to be downloaded.

One of the most remarkable aspects of TikTok is that it’s one of the only platforms that allows you to share on all social media platforms seamlessly!

 

They’ve fully optimized sharing because they understand the power of virality TikTok videos have and how it can generate more views from other social platforms.

 

The BEST way to get shares is to share your content on other social media platforms. Unfortunately, TikTok doesn’t count it as a “share” when you share your own content from your own account, but it does count when your “share link” is shared and someone clicks on it.

 

That’s why we want you to continue to use #MadeWithRush so you can get featured on our daily thread and email. Every time someone clicks on your link, you get a share! Win-win!
