TIK TOK BAN?
So I’m already trying to transition from my tiktok to other socials including twitter(X but I don’t call it that lolol), insta, and possibly others. I’m not sure how other artists online feel(especially those who use social media as marketing/their job). I make no revenue off my art and currently work two jobs just to make ends meet so the ban itself may not effect me as much as others but I’m still frustrated. It took so long just to get to 170 followers on TikTok and I’m worried it’s gonna take even longer to get back to that. Idk if my art is appealing, but fortunately it is just a hobby(as much as I love connecting with people through my art). If lemon8 and CapCut both go down too it’s pretty much over lol. Idk should I just stop and keep art as a personal hobby?
As TikTok faces potential bans across various regions, many artists are reconsidering their social media strategies. The platform has played a crucial role in promoting creative work and connecting with audiences. Artists often rely on TikTok for visibility, networking, and engagement. In light of this situation, transitioning to platforms like Lemon8 and Instagram can offer new opportunities. Engaging with your audience through diverse mediums—whether it's sharing art tips, tutorials, or behind-the-scenes processes—can keep your followers captivated. Additionally, consider using hashtags effectively (#art, #tiktokban, #arthelp) to reach wider audiences. Building a community where artists support each other can also be invaluable. Perhaps explore collaborations or join forums dedicated to art-sharing, enhancing your visibility and connection in the digital space. Remember, while it’s natural to feel uncertain about the future, focusing on your passion and adapting to changes will ultimately sustain your artistic journey.
don’t stop, keep up the awesome art ✨ who knows follows and likes may come quicker and easier on other socials 🤷🏽♀️💕 but you’ll never know if you don’t try
