How to maintain a TikTok account and the steps to maintain an account

【TikTok account maintenance instructions】

After completing the TikTok account registration, don’t rush to post short video content, but simulate the behavior and operations of normal users.

Why do this?

How many normal TikTok users post a large number of videos right from the start? Do they upload videos every time they open TikTok and then close it after uploading?

Most normal TikTok users will first search for and watch their favorite short videos or live broadcasts on TikTok, and like and comment on these videos and live broadcasts.

Therefore, the purpose of maintaining an account is to convey a message to TikTok: this is a normal account used by a normal user.

It is not a robot account, nor is it an account that is solely used for promotion and advertising.

In this way, TikTok will trust our account to a certain extent and provide a certain amount of traffic support to our new account.

To give an analogy, you have just met someone for a few days and you don’t even know his name, what he does, his personal credibility, etc.

He suddenly asks you to borrow money, and the amount he asks for is not low, will you lend it to him without hesitation?

I think I definitely won’t lend it to him.

In the eyes of the TikTok system, we are just "strangers" who want to get traffic from it.

It doesn't trust us yet and doesn't understand us, so it is absolutely impossible for it to allocate more traffic to our works.

We need to increase the weight of our account by maintaining it and other operations so that TikTok's algorithm will judge us as a high-quality and active account.

Of course, don’t think that maintaining an account is a panacea, and don’t think that your works will become popular after you have maintained an account, and will definitely have a high number of views and likes.

In fact, maintaining an account is a basic operation of TikTok, which only improves the stability of the account.

[How to maintain a TikTok account]

Maintaining a TikTok account is neither complicated nor difficult.

Just browse videos, like videos, comment on videos, watch live broadcasts, etc. on TikTok like a normal user.

It’s the same as you using TikTok as a normal user.

At the same time, you can also create accounts based on the content you want to create, focusing on content in the same field.

For example, if you want to make maternal and infant products, then you should pay more attention to the accounts related to maternal and infant products, watch more videos related to maternal and infant products, etc.

Once the TikTok system recognizes your behaviors, it will determine that you are interested in this type of content and label your account accordingly, thereby increasing the push of short videos and live broadcasts of this type.

Of course, the above operations cannot bring you more traffic after you publish such short videos.

Because watching short videos is the behavior of a viewer, while posting short videos is the behavior of a creator. The two are two systems in the TikTok system, and the two are not connected.

But the behavior of brushing content in the same field is not meaningless.

First of all, it can increase account activity and avoid being marked as a low-quality user by the system.

Secondly, it is possible to gain the "favor" of the TikTok system and obtain a certain amount of traffic from TikTok. After all, from the perspective of the platform, it certainly hopes to give better, more, and higher-quality traffic to active, normal, and high-quality TikTok accounts.

Third, it also allows us to better collect market information, understand the current market situation, and know which types of videos are popular, which accounts are the top ones, etc. in the field we want to work in.

Then they provide us with necessary help in selecting benchmark accounts, determining topic selection, improving video network sense, etc.

Below, we will provide simple operations for maintaining a TikTok account as a reference for everyone. You can also maintain an account according to your own understanding and ideas.

Although this method does not include all the operational links and details, nor is it a standardized operating method, it is simple to understand, operate and execute.

After all, the more complex the steps, the more difficult it is to execute them in the long run.

Step 1: Check the network environment, log in to TikTok, watch each video in For You in order, watch the next video after one video is finished, and exit after watching for 20-40 minutes (after all, the length of time each normal user uses TikTok is different, so there is no need to follow a certain rule).

Step 2: A few hours later or the next day, open TikTok again, search for peer accounts in the search box, follow and analyze the big accounts in the same field, and extract the essence. Go to the homepage of these accounts, watch their videos with high playback volume (TikTok can see the playback volume of each video), watch the videos that you are particularly interested in repeatedly, and like, collect, forward, comment, etc., and do specific operations based on your feelings at the time. After all, this is the normal reaction of a real user, and it is real. Then continue to return to the For You page to watch videos, watch more high-quality videos in the same field, and quickly skip irrelevant videos.

Step 3: Repeat the above steps. If you find a live broadcast room in the same field, you can click to enter and interact with the host to a certain extent, or even give the host some small gifts.

Step 4: When you open the For You page of TikTok, most of the videos recommended by the system are videos in the same field, and the basic work of maintaining the account is completed.

Note 1: All account following behaviors, video liking, forwarding, commenting, and interactive behaviors in the live broadcast room must maintain a normal rhythm. For example, it is impossible for a normal user to follow hundreds of accounts in a day, nor is it possible to like every video. Avoid excessive efforts.

Note 2: The time period for opening TikTok and the frequency of liking videos should not follow a certain pattern, because these behaviors of normal TikTok users are irregular and random. In particular, you should pay attention not to repeat the same action in a short period of time (such as posting a large number of comments continuously, liking a large number of videos continuously, etc.).

Note 3: To save time and improve efficiency, you can shoot or collect relevant short video materials, edit relevant short video content, and prepare the next update while maintaining the account. Or you can create 5-10 TikTok accounts at the same time, taking advantage of the low cost of creating a TikTok account to increase the probability of success in creating and maintaining a TikTok account.
