Creator explains new algorithm tipsfrom @misscarolineflett

[01]

Overview

The creator identifies a common problem for TikTok users—lower views due to recent algorithm updates—and reassures them it's a widespread issue. She then pivots to providing a three-part solution: first, she advises creators not to judge a video's performance too early as content now has a 'slow burn.' Second, she emphasizes planning content for the long term, which involves researching audience interests and optimizing for engagement metrics like saves and shares. Third, she explains the importance of using SEO to make videos searchable over time, before concluding with a call-to-action to follow her for more advice.
