[ 02 ]_HOW SEARCH WORKS

How TikTok ranks content

TikTok ranks videos by relevance, engagement, completion rate and use of sound. To rank in TikTok search, content needs relevant keywords in speech, captions and descriptions – and a high completion rate in the first hours after publishing. Facefirst optimises all of these elements as part of an integrated TikTok SEO strategy.

TikTok in Google Search

Can TikTok content rank on Google?

Yes. Google indexes TikTok videos and displays them in search results, particularly for how-to, trend and product-related searches. A well-optimised TikTok can therefore create visibility on TikTok and Google at the same time – something Facefirst actively uses in every production.

_FAQ

Questions we often get

Do we have to appear on camera ourselves?
It often works best when real people from the business appear, but it is not a requirement. We adapt the format to what you are comfortable with.
How long does it take to build visibility on TikTok?
TikTok can move fast, but lasting visibility is built over time through consistent publishing, testing hooks and formats, and ongoing trend and audio analysis.
