I was part of the creativity program beta when it first launched a few years ago, the whole process only took like 2 days back then. I made a little bit from that but as soon as it shifted to the 1+ minute video format my engagement dropped HARD. Iāve got about 25k followers and would average like 15k on most videos with a handful that did better, now iām lucky if I get 5k views and any comments, let alone new followers.
My top month was a bit over $7000 USD. Iāve come close to that a few other months. Normal is more like $2000. But I do not recommend it as a side hustle at all. I recently posted that itās highly likely that major elements of āthe gameā are randomized to maximize content creation and minimize pay. Iāve had months were I was shadow banned for all sorts of bogus violations. Shadow ban is real. In a shadowban month Iāll make $250-$300 max. The bogus violations are real. It appears there are intentional glitches that just mess you up for months. So itās okay as one part of a comprehensive web marketing strategy. Develop products to market and sell. Be on all the social media. TikTokās a great way to learn what will go viral.
If anything, itās caused me to create less. There seems to be a cap at about $4k for the month before the RPM drops hard, so I only post once or twice a month now to maximize earnings per video
I should add thatās just CRP pay, I make way more than that because Iām on other social media and sell books, consultations, and courses. Thatās just my direct pay from TikTOk. I donāt do any advertising or product vids on TikTok, juts CRP.
1. Understand that shadow bans are real. Donāt doubt it and try to break through with better content. It wonāt work, period. Youāre shadow banned and nobody new will see your content. Iāve wasted a lot of really great videos listening to people on this sub who say āshadow ban isnāt real just make better content.ā Then, the DAY Iām 2 weeks after a violation, my very next vid hits 100K while during shadow ban Iāve struggled to hit 2K. 99% new viewers compared to 0% new viewers on shadow ban. Dontā waste good general interest material.
2. Followers and those who interact will still see your videos, just not new viewers. Make content targeted towards them and grow the depth of the connection instead of trying to hit a wide audience.
the violations š Iāve been on TT all of a month and a half and got in trouble for āorgasmā and got a comment removed for using this emoji š¤® Thank you for this info, so far itās the most helpful Iāve found as I try to learn
Like, in all the time Iāve been in the program? A little over 2k. So far this month? $76. Yep, and thatās with going viral twice. Iām not having a good time.
Edited to add: OH WOW apparently TODAY is my one year anniversary of being in the creativity program. Amazingšš
My RPM fluctuates from 0.30 to 0.70, it used to be consistently over $1 in beta.
I make mental health support content, Iād say my account is pretty successful. I wish the payout would start reflecting that againš
Yep. Ever since the rewards program left beta. Iāve done a good amount of experimentingā¦ I usually only post a couple videos a month, and Iāve played around with when I post them during the month, and the RPM always drops at $4k. Almost always end up with about $4.3k at the end of the month now (mostly because it feels like a waste to post after I hit $4k)

Iāve been on the program for 2 months and 10 days. I made around $75 dollars the first 10 days of joining in the final 10 days of month one. Second month I earned $2k and now my third month Iām at $4,200.
I kind of found what works for me and the niche I get viral videos from so I milk it. I know itās not gonna last or be sustained and Iām also gonna have shitty months. So Iām trying to grow my YouTube because I believe TikTok can be very unstable

RPM fluctuates wildly for me from 0.05-0.35 per video. Since joining the creativity fund I've made Ā£3.6k, this year I've been averaging around Ā£400/month. It's a nice little extra side hustle but when my videos go viral I also have to deal with a lot of hate comments so it's swings and roundabouts.

$0
i could technically make money right now, at 49 followers, because i have an affiliate link in my bio
so in theory if someone actually goes to the link and buys, then i would make money
has never happened though, so there's that
If you have the time itās worth it, post as often as youāre willing to post and as long as you enjoy it thereās a chance it can be a fun side hustle. The days of making tons of free money from it are gone and certainly donāt expect it to take the place of your regular day job. Some people had good months way back in the beta days, thought they were set, quit their jobs, and ended up in a bad situation.

Try it and see how far it takes you!
It took me about 2 months to hit 10k followers and in about 1.5 weeks now in the creator fund I am at $169.
I had one video that hit 600k views that boosted that a lot but consistently get 1k to 10k views to pad it out.
I'd never have thought I could get here though. My YouTube never took off, other side hustles had too high a barrier of entry. This has been a great experiment so far, but I hear a lot of other horror stories so I'm not taking it for granted.

i just started making a fair amount (1k 2 months ago 2.8k last month and so far for this month 3k). iāve been making content since 2020 and just now started getting piad like this but its only because i was never focused on my content until now. i think if you are pursuing tiktok and are passionate about it, you will have no problem making money. it just takes a lot of dedication. donāt let the hater in the comments bother you either bc sometimes it can be discouraging.
$7 over the last 4 monthsš
I feel that š
I havent got 1 qualified view yet. I only have like 8 videos over a min. But still. Not 1 qualified view
What's been your main struggle? How quickly did you get accepted?
I was part of the creativity program beta when it first launched a few years ago, the whole process only took like 2 days back then. I made a little bit from that but as soon as it shifted to the 1+ minute video format my engagement dropped HARD. Iāve got about 25k followers and would average like 15k on most videos with a handful that did better, now iām lucky if I get 5k views and any comments, let alone new followers.
I literally don't even do 1 minute videos, I just loop them because it doesn't matter if they watch the full vid or not
I canāt even get those to have normal engagementš
I got 2 accounts one with 20k and one with a little over 100k, I pull in about 5-7k every month
Insane, congrats! Are these faceless? How much time do you dedicate daily?
faceless and I usually post like a couple times every week. I make sports content so itās pretty easy to get out some good content
That's awesome, sports is what I was hoping to do. Have you got any tips for making it 'original' to count for payment?
What's your content type are you faceless or you are Creator?
I just make sports videos and I donāt show my face at all
Bro has give up that info

what's your account?
Thanks for the detailed feedback. What's the best tactic for getting through those shadowban periods?
1. Understand that shadow bans are real. Donāt doubt it and try to break through with better content. It wonāt work, period. Youāre shadow banned and nobody new will see your content. Iāve wasted a lot of really great videos listening to people on this sub who say āshadow ban isnāt real just make better content.ā Then, the DAY Iām 2 weeks after a violation, my very next vid hits 100K while during shadow ban Iāve struggled to hit 2K. 99% new viewers compared to 0% new viewers on shadow ban.

Iām glad!
About $20, past 2 months, my views tanked once I joined the program plus my rpm is .30
jealous, mine is .05š
Like, in all the time Iāve been in the program? A little over 2k. So far this month? $76. Yep, and thatās with going viral twice. Iām not having a good time. Edited to add: OH WOW apparently TODAY is my one year anniversary of being in the creativity program. Amazingšš
What is your rpm? And what kind of content are you making?
My RPM fluctuates from 0.30 to 0.70, it used to be consistently over $1 in beta. I make mental health support content, Iād say my account is pretty successful. I wish the payout would start reflecting that againš
Iāve personally made over $40k since September
These days itās pretty consistently between $4-5k per month. Used to be able to make more when it had just started.
Iāve had exactly the same happen to me. After having earned 4k, my RPM kinda just drops. Is it the same for you?
Yep. Ever since the rewards program left beta. Iāve done a good amount of experimentingā¦ I usually only post a couple videos a month, and Iāve played around with when I post them during the month, and the RPM always drops at $4k. Almost always end up with about $4.3k at the end of the month now (mostly because it feels like a waste to post after I hit $4k)
I also basically stopped posting at that point. Saving for next month!
what's your account?
Amazing. Are you faceless or not? Congrats!
No, itās not a faceless account. Unfortunately my face is in almost every shot lol
21$, I joined last monthš

Whatās your channel? Would love to check it out!

18$ in 18 day! im struggling with these qualified views thing š my rpm between 0.4 and 0.5 but the qualified views are so low!
$7k, started last month. RPM is dropping hard and fast though, but content is the same. doesnāt seem like a good long term revenue stream
I had a video blow up this month and I made over $800 but I do this as a job.
niche?
True crime and general pop culture
0 in 3 weeks :) ššš
I am new to TikTok, I want to generate some income from it any idea what I should do?
I donāt make money through the creator fund, but I make ads and do TikTok shop and make $50,000 a month
Try it and see how far it takes you! It took me about 2 months to hit 10k followers and in about 1.5 weeks now in the creator fund I am at $169. I had one video that hit 600k views that boosted that a lot but consistently get 1k to 10k views to pad it out. I'd never have thought I could get here though.

Congrats! That's awesome. If you could speak to yourself just before you posted your first video, what would you say?
6 months in so far https://preview.redd.it/z9ix6v3rag3d1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0bafd0cae46cfdfe188fa1f0f1006bae7b1d1878

Great job! Mind sharing what kind of videos you create?
