Tips for increasing followers using Tik Tok algorithm!

What I’m going to show you today is how to quickly increase your followers using the algorithm of the Tik Tok platform.

In order to operate a Douyin account well, in addition to the video quality and data optimization we mentioned before, we also need to study and understand the platform's algorithms and use them to help increase our followers. Everyone knows that Tik Tok’s algorithm is very powerful. In the process of a video being exposed, I don’t know how many algorithms it goes through to determine your exposure audience. The more you know, the more you can use the algorithm to help you increase your followers! So, what exactly is Tik Tok’s algorithm?

Don't try to understand the algorithm, but do understand the logic

Algorithms are actually not very difficult to understand, especially for students with a background in science and engineering. We can understand algorithms as a more complex formula, a function, or an objective law. We will not discuss the specific details and knowledge of the algorithm today. We only need to know one of the more important links: the platform will determine who your video is suitable for, and then determine who they are!

To put it simply, if you want to use the algorithm, you must first understand these three points: deduplication, review, and interest!

The term deduplication is not unfamiliar. It is a function often used in Excel. In Tik Tok, the platform will filter out duplicate videos based on deduplication criteria. Once a video is identified as a duplicate video by the platform, it will basically not get any exposure. How does the platform determine whether it is a duplicate? First, if you directly use someone else's video, it will definitely be identified as a duplicate video. If it is not identified, you can go buy a lottery ticket soon. Second, the platform will identify videos with very high similarity as duplicate videos. For example, if some of the shots are repeated, it will most likely be considered a duplicate video.

Some friends may ask, if they repeatedly post their own videos, will they be considered duplicate videos and be limited? Of course you can. I believe that many of my friends have posted videos multiple times. Maybe this video didn’t go viral the first time it was posted, but you are very persistent and think that this video will definitely go viral. It doesn’t matter, you can post it again! Or maybe this video is already very popular, but you looked at the data and thought it’s okay and can be more popular. It’s okay, just post it again! It’s okay to repost videos, but you also have to pay attention to the time interval. Reposting a video too frequently will make the platform think that you have no new works, and there will be no support in terms of traffic!

Let me give you two more reminders. Many people used to like to edit movie scenes, celebrity interviews, and other people’s videos to get a lot of traffic and profit from it. But you must remember that the standardization of copyright is an objective law, and it will only become more and more stringent in the future. Don’t take chances! Therefore, try not to do this kind of behavior. If you have the energy to do this, it is better to study Douyin more and read more Silk Road Likes articles to enrich yourself!

The release of the review video will be released online only after it has been reviewed! The review mechanism is the same as other online platforms, using both manual review and machine review. Most videos are put online after machine review. When is manual review needed? When the machine encounters content that it cannot judge, it will automatically be transferred to manual review and judged by humans. The machine's review must review the video title, sound and picture. It will extract the content and match it with the content of its review library. If it finds matching rejected content, it will PASS your video. If it encounters content that cannot be judged, it will be transferred to manual review. If no problems are found, it will be passed and released. Therefore, if you find that your video review is slow, it is likely that it has been transferred to manual review! It is also important to note that QR codes, phone numbers, external links, illegal, contrary to public order and good morals, and banned words should not appear. Repeated rejections will not be good for your account, and it will be classified as a "black account" and will be subject to focus on review!

There are many videos on Douyin and Douyin official website teaching you how to avoid review problems

Perhaps many people don’t know that in addition to reviewing videos after they are released, Tik Tok will review them again when the number of views of your video reaches more than 100 times the normal value. The review standards for the second instance will be stricter than those for the first instance, because once there is a problem with a popular video, the platform cannot shirk its blame, so the platform will focus on the review. So, fellow Douyin users, don’t challenge the platform, public order and morality, and the law. Never try such a thing!

Interest The word interest is actually not a new word. People who are engaged in information flow advertising have known it for a long time. Major traffic platforms will target advertisements based on people’s interest tags to distribute advertisements that the audience is most likely to be interested in. Some time ago, ByteDance also proposed the concept of interest-based e-commerce, and for this purpose it updated Luban and upgraded it to Qianchuan! In fact, Tik Tok has also not escaped the clutches of interest at this point.

Tik Tok and Toutiao are both products of ByteDance. They both push content based on users’ interest attributes. How do they determine users’ interest tags? Every time you watch a video in its entirety, like, comment, or forward it on Tik Tok, it means that you are interested in this video. The platform will record this content. Then the algorithm will come into play. The algorithm will calculate the tags that you are most interested in based on this content. Therefore, the longer you use the app, the more you will find that the content the platform pushes to you are the ones you are more interested in, just like the roundworms in your stomach!

If conditions permit, you can do a set of control experiments: first, you can find a Douyin account with relatively large traffic, go to its personal homepage, pick some videos that you are interested in, watch them, like, interact or forward them, and try to choose videos of the same type to watch. After watching ten or so, exit Douyin, wait ten minutes or so, and then open the Douyin APP again. You will find that the videos recommended to you by Douyin are basically the same type of videos you just saw. After that, you change to another Douyin account, find a type of video that you are not interested in, find a Douyin account with very good data, and follow it, but don’t watch any videos of the same type, and don’t watch the videos of this Douyin account. Exit Douyin, and open Douyin again after ten minutes or so, you will find that your recommendation list has not changed! This is the power of Tik Tok’s interest algorithm. The algorithm will judge interest tags based on users’ actual behaviors, and try to locate users’ real interest tags. This is beneficial to users, Tik Tok hosts, and the platform!

For users, the platform knows your interests through algorithms, and therefore pushes content in a targeted manner, improving the user experience and deepening user stickiness. As for UP hosts, the platform will use algorithms to determine the interest tags of your video and push the video in a targeted manner. If the data performance is good, it will trigger the "increase in quantity without increasing the price" policy, and continuously expand the exposure level of the video until the video data reaches a bottleneck!

So, from the point of interest, as video producers, we can take a look at the Douyin rankings and ranking trends, study the types and features of videos that users are most interested in recently, cater to users' tastes, and adjust the direction of our own videos!

Finally, we emphasize the following three points, never touch:

Do not copy other people's videos. In the future, the TikTok platform will pay more and more attention to copyright protection, and the APP will be removed from the shelves due to copyright issues. . . I don’t dare to think about this, so Douyin’s censorship will only become more and more strict. If you find a video that you think will go viral, you can imitate its formula, remake it yourself, and then post it, but remember not to use other people’s videos directly!

Be sure to pay attention to copyright issues

Don’t rely on luck, you must go to the official website of Julebao to learn more about the review content, which can also provide some guidance for content release, but try not to try to skirt the rules! Users' preferences are our direction for explosive growth. Once the direction is chosen right, the video is half successful. As for the other half, it depends on the time when you release the video and the quality of your content. This is what is called the right time, right place and right people! Today’s sharing ends here. I hope that Douyin users will not just keep their heads down and shoot videos all the time, but do more research and study the platform. After all, if you want to get rich with Douyin, you must study Douyin thoroughly and keep up with the trends of the platform!
