Social media powerhouse, TikTok, has changed the internet game forever. This short video app lets creators post videos to the ever changing feed called their “For You Page” or FYP for short. This intense algorithm for the FYP predicts what users want to see and what they will like. Unknown to most TikTok users until recent months, every video posted (no matter the user), ends up on the FYP, but it is a matter of the algorithm for it to gain any traction. Since this realization, users have been trying to figure out the factors that could have influence on their videos going the slightest bit viral. One thing that can affect how your video does is timing, so when exactly is the best time to post on TikTok?
