ByteDance reports that TikTok’s monthly Russian audience has reached 8 million active users, who together watch an impressive 10 billion videos every month. Russian users spend about 39 minutes daily on the app, indicating high engagement levels. In Q1 2019, TikTok became the most downloaded app worldwide on the App Store, showcasing its broad international appeal and strong growth.
Expanding Ad Targeting Beyond TikTok’s Platform
TikTok is actively testing a cutting-edge advertising tool that enables brands to target its users even while they engage with other apps and social media platforms. This approach mirrors the powerful cross-platform targeting strategies of established tech giants like Facebook and LinkedIn, and it provides advertisers with the opportunity to reach TikTok’s user base outside of TikTok itself, thereby significantly expanding their potential reach. Through third-party apps, advertisers can deliver personalized ads that cater to the unique preferences and behaviors of TikTok users, increasing brand visibility and engagement. Currently, this feature is being piloted in China and Japan, where ByteDance is carefully evaluating its performance, gathering data on user interactions, and making adjustments to optimize its impact. The success of these trials could pave the way for a broader rollout, allowing brands worldwide to tap into the vibrant TikTok audience beyond the platform’s boundaries and further transforming how digital advertising engages users across multiple digital spaces.
TikTok’s Green Screen Effect Transforms Video Creation
TikTok recently introduced a green screen feature, allowing users to replace the background of their videos with any scene they choose, mirroring techniques used in professional film production. This #greenscreen tool quickly became a favorite, amassing over one billion views in its first two weeks. Unlike traditional film green screens, TikTok’s version is accessible to everyone: users just select the effect and bring their creative visions to life with minimal setup. Thanks to this feature, TikTokers can “appear” at the latest movie premieres, share a scene with their favorite celebrities, or even stand beside landmarks like Niagara Falls.
TikTok’s combination of engaging features and advanced ad tools makes it an attractive platform for both users and advertisers. As the app continues to grow, it offers an increasingly versatile space for brands to reach younger, highly engaged audiences across borders.
