What other environmental disguise details should be paid attention to when operating a Tiktok account?

The kookeey operation team found that in the process of operating Tiktok accounts, many customers believed that they could avoid Tiktok's official monitoring and identification once and for all by relying solely on a high-quality target country proxy IP. As a result, even if these sellers successfully registered and uploaded videos, they would be prompted by the official that their accounts were banned, restricted, or other abnormal operations occurred.

This view is absolutely wrong.

First of all, we need to understand that our account will be detected. Tiktok detects many variables, but the vast majority of the reasons are because when we use Tiktok in mainland China, due to unstable mobile phone variables and network environment, we are identified as an illegal account by Tiktok.

Let's first take a look at these basic variables:

1. Is the SIM card a normal user card in the target country?

2. Is the network environment in the target country when opening Tiktok?

3. Is the phone location consistent with the IP when opening Tiktok?

4. Is the language of the mobile phone when opening Tiktok consistent with the country of the IP address?

5. Is the mobile phone time when opening Tiktok consistent with the country where the IP is located?

6. Is the network stable when using Tiktok?

Some of these variables actually have an impact on account detection, but some have no effect. Let us briefly explain them.

SIM Card:

Some friends use foreign mobile phone cards to roam in China and use domestic operator base stations. This can actually be used, but there is one thing to pay attention to, which is the positioning problem, which we will talk about later. And in fact, there is not much difference between this operation and removing the card. Instead of spending money to buy a foreign mobile phone card, we recommend that you just remove the card and operate it.

Network environment:

So do we have to use 4G traffic and not wifi? We have conducted a lot of tests and found that it is not necessary. Some tutorials require you to use 4G traffic to operate. This operation will greatly increase the operating cost. Our test results show that it is not necessary to use 4G traffic at all, and you can use wifi traffic. (Note: The premise is that the Wifi traffic is already in an overseas environment)

position:

There are 4 types of mobile phone identification and positioning:
(1) GPS detection (2) Base station three-point positioning (LBS service commonly used by social software)
(3) IP WIFI MAC address (4) AGPS (Gps+WIFI)

Tiktok is currently still using the first detection method. If Tiktok uses the latter centralized positioning method like Alipay and other apps, it will become more difficult for our operations. Fortunately, Tiktok is not particularly strict now, and we can solve it through virtual positioning and other methods.

The language and time zone set on the phone do not actually affect usage, so they are not important.

To summarize:

SIM card: Cannot use SIM card from mainland China (need to remove the card or use an overseas card)
Network: The IP address cannot be from mainland China (that is, you must access the Internet in a scientific way)
Positioning: Use GPS positioning Language: Not important Time zone: Not important Time: Not important Network stability: Important

Theoretically, Tiktok's control is not very strict. So why is the control not so strict? Because Tiktok's operating model belongs to the UGC model.

What is the UGC model? It means that users generate content, the platform reviews and publishes it, and then users interact and subscribe. For example, many domestic Douyin accounts now make some mashups and plot introductions of TV series and animations. So these accounts actually have problems with copyright issues. Why does Douyin official turn a blind eye? The reason is simple. These accounts have the strongest user stickiness, and Douyin actually hopes that these accounts will exist.

The same is true for Tiktok overseas. There is a great lack of content on the platform. Overseas content publishers are still relatively novice, and they just dance and pose. Tiktok needs more high-quality content to fill it, so naturally the supervision in this regard will not be too strict.
