FAQs
What are "Keywords"?
Keywords and phrases are sourced from TikTok ads' voice-over audio, text overlay on the ad, and caption text on the ad. Then, the keywords are organized so that users can learn from commonly-used and top-performing keywords to inform ad copy development.
How do I interpret the metrics shown?
All metrics are approximate and not exact performance numbers. We apply algorithms to keep accurate keyword ranking order while protecting business-sensitive data. Metrics should not be used for benchmarking purposes and cannot infer projected ad performance.
Which keyword languages are included in Keyword Insights?
Keyword Insights fully detects English, Japanese, Vietnamese, Russian, Indonesian, Arabic, Italian, Thai and Malay keywords. We are working on expanding to more languages in the future, so in some regions, you may not see local-language keywords at this time. There may be instances where you see non-local language keywords after filtering for your country if brands have run campaigns targeting your selected country without localizing the language of the ad itself.
How do I apply what I learn from Keyword Insights to my creatives?
When considering what to say in your voiceover, text overlay or caption, browse Keyword Insights to find some top keywords to include based on what's popular and/or converting. You may also come here to discover different ways to articulate your product's value proposition.
Is the Keyword Insights data derived from both organic and paid posts?
Keyword Insights' data is derived from paid (TikTok ads) posts and does not include organic-only posts.
