THE BEST 10 TIKTOK HASHTAGS TO GO VIRAL
The best 10 TikTok hashtags to go viral. The best 10 hashtags to make your videos go viral on TikTok. The top 10 hashtags for views and shares on TikTok.
By Mau, Global Head of Marketing Strategy at eDigital.
THE BEST 10 TIKTOK HASHTAGS TO GO VIRAL
Before you start using some of the best 10 TikTok hashtags to go viral and get more views on your videos, let me tell you something you probably have been turning a blind eye toâŚ
TikTok is not helping your business.
TikTok is mugging you in broad daylight.
The latest TikTok algorithm has been deliberately engineered to squeeze every last cent out of your marketing budget. Its showing your carefully crafted videos to roughly the same number of people who would notice if you screamed into your office refrigerator.
You thought you were building an audience on TikTok?
Nope.
Youâre renting one from landlords who charge you extra just to talk to your own followers.
In other words, you’re doing the digital equivalent of building an expensive vacation home on rented land that could be bulldozed at any moment.
Meanwhile, your customer acquisition costs are skyrocketing and Shou Zi Chew (TikTok CEO) is laughing in a money-shaped bathtub.
The problem:
â You donât actually own your TikTok followers data
â Your organic reach is being held hostage
â Your TikTok ad spend is spiralling out of control
â You canât transfer your followers to your best CRM software no matter how many times youâve dreamed about an “export” button
The solution:
â
Stop relying on TikTok treating you like an ATM
â
Lower your customer acquisition costs without selling your kidney
â
Build a marketing strategy with assets you own
â
Master digital marketing so your sales skyrocket without depending on paid ads
I run some of the best digital marketing strategy workshops that will teach you how to ditch the algorithmic extortion racket and create a marketing system that actually works for you.
Because let’s be honest, if youâre still throwing money at TikTok ads hoping for different results, thatâs not marketing. Thatâs like calling your abusive ex at 2 AM: desperate, expensive, and guaranteed to end in disappointment.
Letâs craft the best digital marketing plan and social media strategy that boosts sales and customer lifetime value.

Before you get too excited about posting the #tiktok hashtag, let me tell you something.
All social media platformsâ business models are incredibly sophisticated âmoney extractionâ machines.
TikTok will deliberately let you build a decent organic reach, then change the algorithm to lower your reach and make you pay to get you the same level of reach you previously had for free.
Even the fastest-growing industries are now having to spend a lot of money (boosting their Instagram posts) to reach their hard-earned TikTok followers. This could be one of the top ethical issues in marketing, as TikTok has the right to change their algorithm at any time.

Why using viral TikTok hashtags
- On its launch in 2016, TikTok offered great opportunities for branded videos to go viral. With a one billion+ global user count TikTok was a great social media channel to reach new audiences. However, you now have to spend money on TikTok ads to reach your fans and new audiences.Â
- Getting familiar with the most popular TikTok hashtags is not enough. You should also check out our “The top 25 trending TikTok hashtags right now“ article to find “less competitive” hashtags.
- Initially, TikTok was a great channel for sparking some of the top social media trends with the use of popular hashtags. However, marketers now need to be clever at what they do on social media to increase brand value and sales.
- TikTok is heavily promoting hashtags like #TikTokMadeMeBuyIt (1 billion views) to persuade marketers the platform actually drives sales. But how many products get viral status and skyrocket in sales through TikTok? This is a question thousands of marketers – not just from the popular brands in fashion or sports but even smaller businesses selling affordable and/or innovative products – want an answer to.
- Analysing the most popular and top 25 trending TikTok hashtags can offer you and your marketing team an indication and some insight into your marketing strategies. Adding one or two popular hashtags to your TikTok videos will help you reach new audiences who may be interested in your products/services.
- Using some of the most popular TikTok hashtags is supposed to increase a postâs visibility in the “For You” feed, where users spend most of their time, and that visibility can push your videos to go viral.
