So I’m intrigued with TikTok, can it be harnessed? If so then how?
I started playing about giving snippets of gold interspersed with a few family type videos to my 8 followers for the first month. Thereafter I was lucky to get 1000 views then after filming a paperweight LFC sent me and rapidly getting likes, followers and comments I was hooked and tried harder to no avail.
Then I was about to do an Amazon FBA reality check vid when I decided to put two AA batteries up my nose, see the results below.
My new target is 1000 followers allowing me to live stream, bet I get to 999 and it gets banned.
Ps - a PHr found me on the Tok - surreal.

I reckon there's a special niche there putting batteries in holes biggrin Just been a lady on Radio X from TikTok who basically said so long as you keep posting your followers should grow.

TikTok is so addictive,

I deleted the app because I got sick of all the kids doing dance routines, but reinstalled it in April.. i searched for things that interested me (Motorbikes), and found a whole section on this, and now my home page is actually fun and my god is it addictive.

I decided to post my first video which got 1200 views, and gained me 20 followers, so i did another, and then another.... and well 5 weeks later I have posted around 40 videos and now have 21,000 followers!! i literally cant put it down!!!! smile

Heard on the radio this morning that Trump has given the owners of TikTok 45 days to strike a deal for Microsoft to buy it or it will be banned in the US

Sparky that’s amazing! I was chuffed with my 1000 !! Now imagine those 21000 paid you £1 / $1 a month for your advice and content.

Not sure, I guess it will depend on whether feedback is positive or negative.

I think it looks quite fetching, maybe you should post various different options. Mop head always looks funny.
