TikTok hashtags picked for each video, not copied from a list
Pasting the same 30 trending tags under every video rarely helps. This prompt has your todo.is agent look at what your video is really about, check which tags creators in your niche use on TikTok right now, and give you a small, focused set for each video with a caption to match.
The prompt
- Suggest TikTok hashtags for my next [NUMBER OF VIDEOS] videos. My account is about [YOUR NICHE] and I'm based in [CITY OR COUNTRY]. Here are the videos: [SHORT DESCRIPTION OF EACH VIDEO]. For each video give me 3 to 5 hashtags: 1 broad topic tag, 2 or 3 niche or community tags, and 1 local tag if it makes sense. Search TikTok and the web to see which tags creators in this niche use now, and skip banned, spammy or unrelated tags like #fyp spam. Add a one-line caption for each video with the tags at the end, and a short note on why you picked them. Send it as a simple list I can copy on my phone.
What to change
- [NUMBER OF VIDEOS]: How many videos you need tags for, e.g. "5".
- [YOUR NICHE]: What your account covers, e.g. "sourdough baking", "budget travel" or "nail art".
- [CITY OR COUNTRY]: Where you are, for local tags, e.g. "Leeds, UK". Write "not local" if it doesn't matter.
- [SHORT DESCRIPTION OF EACH VIDEO]: One line per video, e.g. "1) shaping a sourdough loaf, 2) 4am bakery routine". You can also attach the clips.

- Why these tags
- • Each set describes the video, so TikTok can show it to the right viewers
- • Niche tags like #sourdoughshaping have fewer posts, so your video is not buried
- • Local tags help nearby people find the shop
- • No #fyp or #viral: they say nothing about the content
How to do it with todo.is
- Copy the prompt and describe each video in one line, or attach the clips.
- Send it to your agent in todo.is or on WhatsApp, so the list lands on your phone.
- Copy each caption with its tags when you post.
- Make it a weekly to-do: every Sunday, send next week's video list and get fresh tag sets back.
Tips for a better result
- Use 3 to 5 relevant tags. Clear captions and on-screen text tell TikTok more than a long list of tags.
- Add one local tag if you have a shop or serve one city. It helps nearby viewers find you.
- Check a tag before using it: tap it in TikTok and see if the videos match yours.
- Rotate tags between videos instead of pasting the same block every time.
TikTok hashtags: FAQ
- How many hashtags should I use on TikTok? Most creators use 3 to 5 focused tags. More tags do not mean more reach, and relevant ones help TikTok understand the video.
- Do #fyp and #foryou hashtags help? There is no clear evidence that they boost reach. They describe nothing about your video, so a niche tag is a better use of the space.
- Should I use trending hashtags? Only if the trend really fits your video. Using an unrelated trending tag can show your video to people who swipe away fast.
- Can my agent post the video with these tags? No, todo.is does not post to social networks for you. It gives you the captions and tags, and you post them.
