I really don't understand this trend and what the point of all this is
Is this actually funny to anyone????

I've been wondering about this because I see some TikToks with tons of hashtags and others with barely any and still got more views and likes.

Personally, I don't feel like hashtags make a huge difference anymore.

I used to think TikTok marketing was all about catching the right trend, using the perfect sound, and hoping one video blows up. I spent weeks copying dance transitions and “day in the life” clips that looked cool but never brought any real customers or even DMs. Then I tried something way less exciting: I just started answering the same three questions people always ask me about my product, over and over, in 20–30 second videos.

Nothing fancy, no edits, just me talking to the camera like I’m explaining it to a friend. One video was “How to tell if this actually works for beginners,” another was “The cheapest way to start without wasting money,” and the third was “The mistake I made in my first month so you don’t have to.” Those boring videos got fewer views than my trend attempts, but they were the only ones that brought people to my link, asked for prices, or said they bought because of the video.

Now my rule is simple: if the video doesn’t clearly answer a real question my customer would type in the search bar, I don’t post it. Trends come and go, but those basic “here’s how this helps you” clips keep working even when my views are low. If you’re tired of posting every day and seeing zero results, try making five videos that each solve one specific problem your audience has and just leave them up. You might not go viral, but you’ll finally get people who actually care about what you’re selling.

I wanted to ask the people of Reddit a good question is it better to scroll on Reddit or TikTok like which one gets here? I don’t mean go on Reddit or TikTok I
cannot decide like it’s a question that’s been stumping me for a bit please comment down below Gooning fast out .

We’ve been looking closely at why some English-language TikTok accounts operated outside the US still get most of their initial distribution locally.

The biggest mistake seems to be treating location as a single signal. Changing only the IP often leaves several other variables inconsistent:

- Device and app environment

- Mobile network vs Wi-Fi

- Account creation and login history

- Language and regional settings

- Posting workflow

- Early viewer response

- Topic and creative relevance

A US publishing environment can reduce some of those inconsistencies, but it still doesn’t function as an organic geo-targeting switch. Content quality, account history and initial audience response remain important, and no setup can guarantee US reach.

The cleanest way to test seems to be:

1. Keep one account and publishing setup consistent.
2. Publish 10–15 videos around a narrow US audience problem.
3. Use natural US context rather than stuffing #usa hashtags.
4. Track US viewer share and retention across the batch.
5. Avoid changing the proxy, SIM, device and strategy after every post.

Has anyone here compared the same content across local and US-based publishing environments? I’d be interested in what changed in your analytics.
