TikTok Music Marketing Guide

TikTok has become the most powerful platform for music discovery. Here's how to make it work for you.

Understanding the Algorithm

The TikTok algorithm favors content that keeps viewers engaged. For musicians, this means creating short, captivating clips that showcase your music in creative ways.

Best Practices

  1. Post consistently - Aim for 1-3 posts per day
  2. Use trending sounds - But always tie back to your own music
  3. Engage with comments - The algorithm rewards engagement
  4. Collaborate with creators - Cross-promotion expands your reach

Lyric Videos Work

Lyric videos are particularly effective because they:

  • Encourage sing-alongs and duets
  • Are easy for fans to share
  • Work well with TikTok's short format

Timing Your Posts

Post when your audience is most active. For most music audiences, this is between 7-9 PM local time.
