Your TikTok bio is by far the best place to introduce yourself and what your profile is all about – drawing attention to your chosen niche or industry, your experience and/or professional skills, and anything else that might encourage users to follow you and become a part of your TikTok community.
If you choose to use the platform to share specialist advice and industry insight, then the bio is a great place to introduce yourself as a friendly expert.
If you are keen to build a profile built on comedy, challenges, or skits, then your bio is an opportunity to introduce this.
Or, if you simply want to access TikTok as a personal user, finding content you like and engaging with friends and family, the bio is a chance to introduce your name and link any other accounts you have on other social platforms.
Building a Bio
There are few things you need to know about building a bio.
For one thing, your bio can contain a maximum of 80 characters. This includes spaces, letters, numbers, and emojis.
Another thing to note is that your bio is not huge and does not command the same attention as the big ‘Follow’ button or the videos beneath. That’s why your videos and the captions attached to them, as well as your username and profile image, are al equally important when it comes to introducing your profile and what it’s all about.
Finding the Bio on TikTok
The bio of a user is sandwiched between their profile picture and their grid of videos and posts.
You can find it by navigating to the profile of a user (or indeed navigating to your own profile) and seeking out the block of content that sits just under their ‘Following’ and ‘Follower’ buttons.
And voila! We hope this helps you to unlock a little more insight into the people and profiles that you follow – and helps you to communicate a little more about yourself with friends and followers.
