How To Get So Many Likes On Musically

Download Article

This wikiHow teaches you how to grow your TikTok popularity and receive more likes and followers. TikTok is a very crowded social platform, so making your videos stand out is the key to getting more likes. Start by creating a memorable profile with an easy-to-remember username, set your privacy to the Public setting, create original videos that follow the latest trends, and stick to making the type of content you like doing to reach wider audiences. As a last resort, you can use an online like generator to receive free or paid likes to your videos, but keep in mind that using a like generator may significantly hurt your reputation with real audiences.

Create a simple and catchy username. Your username is usually the first and the most important part of your online profile. A short, simple, and catchy username that's easy to remember is the best way to promote your profile.
2
Add a profile picture. If you want to get popular and receive more likes, a simple and nice profile picture will help you stand out in the crowd. You can use a photo of yourself, a tiny video or a cool graphic image that's appropriate for the kind of content you make on your page.
- To change your profile picture, you can tap the Me tab on the bottom-right, and tap the Edit Profile button. You will see the Profile Photo and Profile Video options here.

Expert Answer

Hop on the Discover page and browse the trending hashtags, then include those in your posts. Also, if you follow general TikTok trends as they happen and create a post in that style or trend, you're more likely to gain traction with your posts.
Question

If I like my videos but set it so no one can see, will I get more likes, as people think I have more likes than I do, making me look more likeable so people want to follow/like me more often?

Zhongli, Archon of Liyue (Aasim)

Community Answer

Liking your own videos probably will not work. At the end of the day, people like content because they enjoy it, and that is not going to change if you artificially inflate the number of likes you have.
Question

I want to get followers and likes, how can I do this?

Jayna Akanova

Community Answer

If you want more followers/likes, you have to do the same thing as explained in the article. If you get more followers, then more people will like your videos.
Question

I lost a follower, how is that possible?

Your follower probably deleted their account, or decided not to follow you for personal reasons. Don't worry, you'll get more followers in the future to make up for it.
Question

My mom only wants me to have a private account. Is that a problem?

Logan Hayes

Community Answer

Your mom just wants you to be safe, it's her job. You can still be great at TikTok with a private account.
Question

How do I convince my parents to let me have a public account?

Try asking to them face to face. Be nice, show them that you are mature enough to have one by being responsible and doing chores, etc. If they say no, then that is okay, they are just trying to protect you and you can still do a lot with a private account.
Question

My account has over 100 followers and over 200 likes but I think my account is shadow banned. My videos are not going viral and no new comments are being posted on them. Is something wrong?

No. Your account is most likely not shadow banned. You just don't have much activity right now. There are literally millions of videos on TikTok, so yours are probably buried within many other videos just like it.
Question

Will using a free follower generator hurt my account?

You could be banned or called out for it. Also, there really isn't any fun in using a follower generator, so as long as you make appropriate content and use trending hashtags to increase views, you really don't need to.
Question

Can I get a verified icon on my TikTok account with only 70 fans?

No, you cannot do so. For this to happen, you would need to be a high-profile celebrity, such as Charli D'Amelio.
