Do you want to reach more customers on TikTok?
Try Going Live
Live streaming has become a cornerstone of TikTok's content ecosystem. The platform heavily prioritizes live content, and its algorithm pushes live streams to users' For You pages, significantly increasing their visibility and reach.
One way to maximize the effectiveness of your live streams is to encourage viewers to tap the like button frequently during the stream. This interaction boosts the stream's visibility in TikTok's algorithm, potentially exposing it to a larger audience.
What is the sweet spot for the duration of your live streams? You'll need a minimum of 20 minutes, but 45 minutes is ideal for maximum reach and engagement.
Today's advice is provided with insights from Keenya Kelly, a featured guest on the Social Media Marketing Podcast.

Canvas for ChatGPT: OpenAI's new feature opens automatically when the AI detects a scenario where it could be helpful. Users can also manually activate it by including "use canvas" in their prompt, allowing them to work on existing projects. Writing shortcuts include suggesting edits with inline feedback, adjusting document length, changing the reading level from Kindergarten to Graduate School, adding final polish by checking grammar, clarity, and consistency, and inserting relevant emojis for emphasis. For coding tasks, Canvas makes it easier to track and understand ChatGPT's changes, with plans to further improve transparency in editing. Users can have ChatGPT review their code with inline suggestions, add logs for debugging, insert comments to improve code readability, detect and fix bugs by rewriting problematic code, and even port their code to different programming languages, including JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C++, or PHP.

Google Lens for Search: Google has announced significant updates to its Google Lens application, introducing new features that expand its search capabilities. The most notable addition is the ability to search using video, which is now rolling out in Search Labs on Android and iOS platforms. This new feature allows users to record a short video of what they want to search for rather than being limited to a single image. Additionally, users can now use their voice to ask questions about what they see in real time. The system utilizes Google's Gemini AI model to analyze the video content and provide relevant responses to user queries. Google has also enhanced its photo search feature within Lens. Users can now ask questions about a photo using their voice. This voice question feature is being rolled out globally on Android and iOS, though it's currently only available in English.

Google Verification in Search: In a limited experiment, Google is testing a blue checkmark in its search results to help users identify legitimate websites and avoid fraudulent ones. The checkmarks are intended to distinguish authentic businesses from potential copycats trying to exploit well-known brands. When visible, users can hover over the checkmark to see a message explaining that "Google's signals suggest that this business is the business that it says it is." Google determines this authenticity through various means, including website verification, Merchant Center data, and manual reviews. Source: The Verge
YouTube Shorts: Beginning October 15, 2024, creators can upload videos that are up to 3 minutes long. Videos uploaded before this date that are up to 3 minutes long and in a square or taller aspect ratio will remain unchanged. After October 15, all videos meeting these criteria will be treated as Shorts, though the rollout may take a few weeks. Shorts over 60 seconds containing copyrighted content will be blocked, meaning they won't be playable or recommended on the platform. However, creators can edit their videos to remove copyrighted content using YouTube Studio tools. Monetization for 3-minute Shorts will function similarly to current Shorts, except for those blocked due to copyright claims. Regardless of duration, all Shorts will count toward YouTube Partner Program eligibility requirements. Source: YouTube
