How to make money with Douyin

Attract fans. To make money with Douyin, users must have a certain number of fans. Therefore, at the beginning, after registering an account, users can shoot some interesting short videos. If they are familiar with post-editing, they can also make short videos and upload them. The video should be interesting and attract the audience’s attention.

Of course, our ultimate goal is to attract fans. The second step is fan conversion. When a Douyin account has a certain number of fans, it can be monetized, which is what we call traffic monetization.

Of course, there are many ways to monetize.

(1) E-commerce monetization. This is the most common way. Products are promoted by shooting Douyin short videos to attract consumers to buy. Of course, this method is not recommended because it can easily lead to a loss of fans over time. Here we suggest that you do not deliberately promote products when shooting videos, and try to combine the products with the fun of short videos.

(2) Help merchants advertise. In this way, we can earn advertising fees from merchants. This promotional method is basically similar to the first e-commerce method. Of course, you can also not include any product information in the video. Just hang the merchant's product in your own Douyin window, and users will naturally click to view it.
