First of all, you need to verify your phone number. This can be done in the app&#8217;s settings. Next, you need to have at least 1GB of free space on your phone and be using the most recent version of the app. Also, you will need to include a Call-to-action in your live broadcast. Once you have completed all of these steps, you can go live on the TikTok platform.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Limitation_of_13-year-olds_to_go_live_on_TikTok\"><\/span>Limitation of 13-year-olds to go live on TikTok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Despite the fact that the company claims that it does not target children under the age of 13, it does not make it any easier to control what young people watch. One such case involves the magnet challenge, in which users swallow small magnetic balls. Sadly, the results of these challenges can be devastating. In some cases, these children have required surgery and hospitalization. However, with the help of TikTok&#8217;s safety centre, parents can rest easy knowing their children are safe.<\/p>\n<p>However, the limitations of TikTok aren&#8217;t just for children. The website limits users to between 13 and 15 years old and also restricts the ability to buy virtual gifts. For example, a person can only purchase virtual gifts if they are over the age of 18, and he or she should be at least sixteen years old to go live. The company also prohibits minors from soliciting for virtual gifts. Still, the platform has a provision for raising money for charity by adding donation stickers to videos.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to monitor what young people are watching on TikTok is to share the account with them. By doing so, parents can monitor what their kids are doing. Parents can also ask their children about their favorite video creators and explore their content. The best way to keep an eye on their children&#8217;s activity on the site is to share an account with them and check on their activities.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Requirement_of_1000_followers_to_go_live\"><\/span>Requirement of 1,000 followers to go live<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can&#8217;t go live on TikTok unless you have at least 1000 followers. If you don&#8217;t yet have a thousand followers, you can request to join a livestream and wait for the host to accept your request. Once your request is accepted, you will be able to watch the livestream and participate in the conversation. However, if you don&#8217;t have enough followers, you can always join a livestream with a friend and participate in it.<\/p>\n<p>Although it is possible to go live on TikTok without a thousand followers, this is not recommended. The platform&#8217;s content moderation policies make it difficult to get an audience of a certain age. Moreover, TikTok&#8217;s age restrictions and the 1,000-follower requirement make it harder for people of all ages to join. For this reason, you should only join the TikTok platform if you have a lot of followers and have a unique take on any challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike other social media platforms, TikTok has strict guidelines when it comes to how to go live. First of all, you have to be at least 16 years old to start streaming. Second, you should make sure you are over 16 years old and have at least 1,000 followers to access the live feature. And finally, remember to follow the rules of the TikTok community, so as not to offend other users.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Call-to-action_in_live_broadcasts\"><\/span>Call-to-action in live broadcasts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want your video to get the attention of viewers, you need to incorporate a call-to-action. In a live broadcast, you can ask the viewer to follow you or visit your website, and you can use pinned comments to create a thread beneath your video. This will ensure that your video is seen by all viewers. To make the most of this video advertising tool, here are a few tips to keep in mind:<\/p>\n<p>Make your broadcast short. While it may be tempting to stay on-camera for an hour, it is best to keep your content to a minimum. A thirty-second video should be sufficient for most people to watch, so keep your broadcast short. Also, remember that you will have to remove your videos after the broadcast ends. TikTok allows you to add up to 20 moderators, which will help keep the live chat clean and friendly.<\/p>\n<p>Include a website link. Many viewers click on a website link. Another effective CTA is a link sticker on the story post. Pairing a call-to-action with an incentive can be highly effective. For example, a music educator might use a link sticker on his stories. This works well because it will increase the number of clicks on the link. Another common way to include a call-to-action is to add an incentive, like a discount code or freebie.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HGzkFcJncFg\" width=\"527\" height=\"295\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Can&#8217;t I Go Live on TikTok in 2022?
