Getting more views on Tiktok

Image
How to get more views on tiktok? This video... https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSdyTEg8J/ ... got 6K+ views on the second day after posting.  Today,  the 3rd day,  it's got 45K+ views.  This is my first non-"tutorial" video that blew up.  Here are some fun facts... 1. No description - Coming from the SEO- centric YouTube universe, I experimented with the Tiktok video without any description. There is only one hashtag. 2. Bad video - I thought the edits were unrefined and that people will point out my mistakes. So I did not share this video link in other social media. I almost didn't want to post this video.  3. Did not tag the original creator - The idea came from another creator.  I made a separate video and tagged the creator to credit him.  That video remained at 3K+ views... https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSdywLBj7/ Conclusion... What I am trying to say is that... I didn't do anything intentional to get more views... except to create a visually entertainin...

What is the best time to live stream?

Image
When is the best time to live stream on Tiktok, YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch?  So I have been experimenting and this is my result. 1. Tiktok - The best time to stream on Tiktok is from 3pm to 9pm Singapore time. My 100K+ Tiktok followers come from around the region.  They start coming in at 3 pm and go to sleep at 9 pm. The gifters usually come at 3 to 5 pm.  2. Youtube - The best time to stream on Youtube is early afternoon 1 pm to 4 pm. My 6000+ YouTube subscribers mostly are from the United States or further away from my region. It's also topic specific. Some non-subscribers discovered my stream through search.  3. Facebook - Facebook for me is like a waste of time. I have over 3000 followers and it feels like no one is interested in my streams... or they are just not notified like what Youtube and TikTok actively do without paid ads.   As for Twitch, I have yet to build a sizeable following to know the result.  By the way, the above are all stream...

1199... fill in the boxes with the code ... loop...  ======= end of the dream. What did you dream of last night? Does it solve a problem? See above. It's a looping dream.  The feeling is like there is work to do.  What happened yesterday?  Tested outdoor streaming with Prism on iPhone 12 Pro Max... https://fb.watch/cCqHQalw8t/ What worked? - Samsung Galaxy S10 Hotspot to iPhone.  - Streamed to Twitch and Facebook.  - Audio captured was in stereo.  What did not work? Why? - Footage is not usable. Too many jump cuts. Unstable Hotspot.  - Footage is too shaky. It's the walking bobbing.  A gimbal might help.  Do IRL streamers use gimbals?  - Night scenes are too grainy even with the iPhone 12 pro max. iPhone is bad.   What did you learn? - I can't find any streamer that uses a gimbal.  - Streaming at 1080p 30fps takes up about 3 GB per hour.  - The recording was smooth. Though it saved at 30 minutes, longer videos ma...

People Playing Games - 5-min Morning Journal #220418

Image
The game has 3 stages. Stage 1 met a technical glitch and has to be delayed. I waited. It seems it's not going to start any time soon. So I went outside to the meeting point. A young man outside told me he completed stages 2 and 3 while waiting for stage 1 to restart. Then I regretted not knowing I could do that. So I rushed back into the building and looked for stage 2. I searched from room to room. Many people were doing some activities. I couldn't find our activity. I went outside again. This time a lady asked me if I encountered the delay in stage 1. I got annoyed and desperate.  Time is running out. I need help to get to stages 2 and 3. There is no one around at the meeting point to help me.    I was holding something blue throughout the game.  "People playing games in a room" by StarryAI ========end of the dream.  What did you dream of last night?

How to Hide Featured Images on Individual Posts and Pages in WordPress Theme 2022

Image
Featured images are important, but it’s not effective if that’s the first thing visitors see on my web page, especially when it’s one big block obscuring all the info the visitors came for. I have tried 2 plugins and 1 CSS code to hide featured images from all single posts and pages. None worked on WordPress Theme Twenty Twenty-Two. Then I found a CSS code that worked. Thanks to   WPallresources.com. Here’s how to do it. Log in to WordPress and go to Dashboard. Go to Appearance > Customize… 3. Select Additional CSS… 4. Copy and Paste this code “.single-post .wp-post-image { display: none; }” and click on Publish… Now every single post and page on my WordPress Theme 2022 has the huge featured image hidden.  Do you know any better method to hide featured images from individual posts and pages in WordPress Theme Twenty Twenty-Two? Please share. ~ Adrian Lee How to Hide Featured Images on Individual Posts and Pages in WordPress Theme 2022 https://adrianvideoimage.com/how-to-hid...

5 12 14 16 44 - 5-min Morning Journal #220415

Image
In my sleep,  I saw some numbers... 5 12 14 16 44. The rest of the dream was vague, except that I was outside walking without touching the floor. I walked in the air and over tables. The initial push from the floor was hard. My hands shook violently as I pushed down the floor to create a gap of air.   "5 12 14 16 44" by StarryAI ========end of the dream.  Update 17 Apr 2022 - 3 days later, I discovered that the above dream numbers weren't Toto numbers.  They were 4D numbers.   What did you dream of last night? Does it solve a problem? See above. The feeling is hope.  What happened yesterday?  I bought a NETS motoring Flashpay card and topped up $25.

Regret - 5-min Morning Journal #220414

Image
 I lost the group.  Where did they go? They were supposed to go to a restaurant. I walked up and down the mall to find that restaurant. I can't find them.  I am holding a video camera.  My job is to film the event.  It's night, and I finally found it.  It was an outdoor setting. But everyone is gone.  There were left overs on the tables. The event banner on the stage.  I missed the event.  I sat on the floor in the carpark. Feeling disappointed yet happy because I knew I didn't take up this annual A assignment. Then the organizer S walked up to me and said that he didn't expect to see me here.  I walked to his van and inside was all the organizing staff that I knew.  I said hello and goodbye to them. Coz I will not be handing their event anymore.  "Regret" by StarryAI ========end of dream.  This goodbye is real.  I miss the event.  I miss the people. It's my choice.  I have to move on.  What did you dre...
