Tips for Writing Captions
Keep Them Short and Concise

Use the Relevant Hashtag(s)

However, avoid going overboard with too many hashtags. This goes back to the number-one advice, keep them short and concise!
Match the Tone of Your Caption With Your Video
Before crafting your caption, consider the intention behind your clip: are you telling an emotional, suspenseful, or funny story? If you’ve got the answer, make sure that the tone of your caption aligns with the tone of the video to avoid confusing your audience.
Know Your Audience
This is simply said, but not simply done. But understanding your target audience is crucial. Knowing your target audience means you have an idea of where they live, what language they speak, what is the gender ratio, how old they are, and what humor resonates with them?
We recommend you check out your analytics on TikTok to gain more detailed insights into your audience.
