ad 📸 How to make viral videos ⬇️⁣ ⁣ I received 300 MILLION views on my content this year so here are my tips for how to make engaging videos so you can go viral on @TikTok ⁣ ⁣ My most viral videos were also my most valuable. Videos that give value are either educational/informative (think SAVEABLE content), entertaining (fun to watch) or engaging/inspiring. So how do you make your videos valuable? ⁣ ⁣ ✍️1. DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST⁣ ⁣ Ask your audience what they need help with and create videos that solve their biggest problems. ⁣ ⁣ Or for more data-backed content ideas, check TikTok’s Creator Search Insight Tool. Here you can get suggested and trending search terms.⁣ ⁣ The "content gap" section is where you want to pay the most attention, as these phrases will have a tonne of searches but not many videos, meaning if you make a video for these search terms your content will have more of a chance of going viral.⁣ ⁣ 🪝2. ENGAGE WITH A HOOK⁣ ⁣ The first 2 seconds of your video is make or break! You need both a visual & text hook to grab someone's attention and give them a reason to stop & watch your video.⁣ ⁣ Do this by using a catchy text title + your most colourful/eye-catching video clip first.⁣ ⁣ 🎵3. CREATE A VIBE WITH AUDIO⁣ ⁣ Entertaining videos are enjoyable to watch when you choose a song that matches the vibe of what you're posting about. TikTok makes this easy with its Sounds section, the “for you” song suggestions are always bang on and this is where you can easily find trending songs too to help you stand out. Tip: always edit on the beat of the song!⁣ ⁣ 📈4. REVIEW ANALYTICS ⁣ ⁣ Take time to review the performance of your videos with TikTok's in-depth analytics where you can see retention rate and traffic sources and use this data to help you create your next video. Low retention rate? Try switching up the pace on your next video and get to the point more quickly. ⁣ ⁣ Check out my previous video where I shared my top 5 tips for how to film high-quality content using your phone.⁣ ⁣ #TikTokPartner #HighQualityContent⁣ ⁣ Content creation tips.

These are my top secrets for making viral videos and everything you need to know to make scroll-stopping, high-quality content. This year I received over 300 million views on all my travel content, so today I'm sharing all the tips and tricks I use to make content that goes viral. Okay, first, before you even hit that record button, you have to do your research first. Yes, boring, I know, but this is a step you can't miss. So you need to think about how your video is going to give value to someone because the more saves and shares you get on an engaging video equals more views. Now an easy way to do this is simply ask your audience what they need help with or one of the best ways to get content ideas is to check the TikTok creator search insight tool. This is where you can get suggested and trending search terms. However, the content gap section is where you want to pay the most attention as these phrases will have a ton of searches but not many videos, meaning your specialized content will have more of a chance of going viral. Next, you need a text hook that's going to grab someone's attention and actually give them a reason to watch your video. For example, let's take the search term, best restaurants Copenhagen, and turn this into a catchy title like, save these restaurants for your next trip to Copenhagen. The word save tells the viewer what action to take, whereas words like you and your connect to the viewer personally which makes them feel like this video is made just for them which is what we want to be super engaging. High quality content also needs a visual hook too, so I recommend starting with the most exciting clip first, don't save the best to last. Say for my Copenhagen video, I'm going to use this colorful and eye-catching clip of this food at the start, and then get to your point quickly because unless you're posting a long chatty vlog, I recommend making your video no longer than 10 to 15 seconds max. I'm then going to add the locations of each restaurant both on the video and in the caption to encourage people to save my video to their TikTok favorites. And to tie everything together, you want to add an audio that fits the vibe of what you're posting about. Copenhagen is a very cool city, so I want to find a lo-fi track with a good beat. You can easily do this in the sound section on TikTok. TikTok knows me so well that the for you song suggestions always bang on, this one right here is literally perfect. Okay, now I'm ready to share the video, sit back and watch the views roll in, but this is also when I pay close attention to TikTok's analytics. This is where I can review things like retention rate and traffic sources and use this data to help me create my next video. So just remember to always make a video that is educational, entertaining and engaging and you're good to go.
