Don’t Sleep on TikTok’s Latest Update for Creators

Big news: TikTok is stepping up its affiliate game. With the new “link share” function, select creators can earn commissions from outside the TikTok app, no longer restricted to just in-app activity.

What this means for your brand:

• Better value collaborations: Collaborators can now showcase your products to a broader audience beyond their TikTok followers.

• Seamless product discovery: Trending products + creators = organic sales.

Brand Play: As you collaborate with TikTok creators to feature your holiday must-haves, remember to negotiate affiliate link shares as part of the package.

And if they have no clue what you’re talking about, point them to the update. The rising tide lifts all ships, so there’s no harm in pointing your partners toward new money-making opportunities!

Growth Hack: Build Your Brand, Boost SEO

Want to supercharge your Q4 momentum? Invest in brand recognition ads like MagneticMe. While everyone else is focused on BCFM, MagneticMe seems to be doubling down on “holiday season” ads on Facebook like these:

Why it works:
Brand recognition ads don’t just drive awareness—they’re also SEO rocket fuel. When people see your ads, they’re more likely to search for your brand, increasing organic search traffic and boosting your ranking.

This strategy seems to have earned Magneticme 2,553 monthly searches (up by 375!).

MagneticMe’s brand organic search traffic is not a fluke. The brand is very intentional about optimizing for SEO, even outranking Amazon on certain keywords.

Myles McLean, founder and CEO of Grill Hound, also believes in the value of an organic SEO strategy.

Secret sauce: MagneticMe uses Plug In SEO to scan and laser target negative SEO factors to fix. Adding this to its workflow helps to attract more search traffic and sales. Try it for yourself for free.
