You&#8217;ll want to make sure you upload the correct dimensions of your video so you can upload it properly. You&#8217;ll also want to make sure your video is the correct size. After you&#8217;ve completed these steps, you&#8217;re ready to upload your video!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uploading_media\"><\/span>Uploading media<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the best ways to make your TikTok videos go viral is by using original and trending audio. Many users will first explore the platform through audio, so finding original audio that resonates with your audience can help you reach a wider audience. The first three seconds of your video are crucial, so make sure you get your message across within these first few seconds. Approximately 67% of all top performing TikTok videos convey their key message within the first three seconds.<\/p>\n<p>After uploading media to your TikTok account, you can edit the text and audio within your videos. You can add captions, sound effects, and interactive graphics. You can also toggle on or off comments, duets, and react videos. Once you&#8217;re satisfied with the video, you can share it on various social networks. Make sure you have the proper permissions to share your videos.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_effects\"><\/span>Adding effects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding effects to videos is a fun and easy way to personalize your video. You can add various stickers, bubbles, and star effects to your video. You can apply more than one effect to a video and change the background in multiple ways. There are also a number of transition options available, including zooming and rotating the video. Split visual effects let you create nine-frame collages from a single video. You can also slow down the video or reverse its motion.<\/p>\n<p>You can add different effects to your videos on the TikTok app. You can apply stickers and time effects to your videos. To use these special effects, you need to hold down the effect you want while the video plays. You can combine different effects to create an impressive video. Once you have created your video, you can start adding effects. If you&#8217;re interested in creating your own special effects, check out the video editing tool available on the TikTok app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_captions\"><\/span>Adding captions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube has added a new feature that allows you to add captions to your videos. By dragging the text slide at the bottom of the video, you can add captions. They will appear as small text boxes that will disappear when the video ends. You can also choose the color and font of your captions. You can also adjust the font size, style, alignment, and positioning. The captions will appear below your video, so you can easily edit them.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the style and font size, you should also consider the color contrast and font size when adding text to your TikTok video. People with low vision will find it difficult to read small fonts. A sans serif font style is recommended. Make sure that the font color contrast is enough for viewers to see your captions. Additionally, make sure that your text is centered so that it does not overlap with other elements.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_hashtags\"><\/span>Adding hashtags<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding hashtags to your video is a simple but effective way to increase your video&#8217;s reach and engagement. But hashtags should be used in the right way and in the right number. Too many hashtags will scare off viewers. You should add about five to eight hashtags to each video, and you can track the effectiveness of each tag on your account. You can categorize hashtags into three categories based on the amount of views they receive. High-frequency hashtags get more than 100 thousand views per video. Middle-frequency hashtags are used ten to hundred thousand views.<\/p>\n<p>The most time-consuming method is browsing through content, but you can also find relevant hashtags by searching. Just remember that hashtags are not always related to your video, so it&#8217;s important to match them with the genre. For example, if your video is about dancing, use hashtags related to that genre, but not #singing. The same goes for hashtags related to acting or singing. Popular hashtags are also hard to gain. Choose less popular ones that aren&#8217;t too competitive. The less popular ones may help you gain more followers and increase engagement.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vAho-cr5UxY\" width=\"396\" height=\"221\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Use TikTok to Make Videos If you want to learn how to use TikTok to create a video, there are a few things you&#8217;ll want to know.
