Even X/Twitter, which was originally <em>all about words</em>, says that four-fifths of user sessions now involve video. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">The future of video on X is bright! 🤩 4 out of every 5 user sessions now include watching video. Overall video views on X are growing at an average rate of 35% year over year with average time spent on video up +17%. <a href="https://t.co/P6kF083txg">pic.twitter.com/P6kF083txg</a> <p>— Data (@XData) <a href="https://twitter.com/XData/status/1767672449418527227?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 12, 2024</a></blockquote> <p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <p>This presents a key challenge for social media marketers, because each platform requires its own approach. <p>To give just one example, thumbnail images display from one platform to the next, so you’ll need to change your cropping to ensure they contain all the necessary information.

When you download a video from TikTok, the platform adds its own watermark — and if Instagram <em>detects</em> that watermark, it’ll downrank and demote your content. <p>In other words: <strong>it’s fine to share the same type of content across multiple platforms, but you need to edit specific versions for each channel</strong>. <p>👉 <strong>Learn more:</strong> <a href="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/tiktok-for-business-top-10-brands-smashing-it-on-tiktok/">TikTok for Business: Top 10 Brands Smashing it on TikTok</a> <h2>2. Remember: Shorter Isn’t Always Better</h2> <p>Given that we’re specifically writing about best practices for short-form content, this next best practice might sound counterintuitive. But bear with us, because we’ve got receipts to back it up. <p>There’s plenty of disagreement over what, exactly, constitutes a “short-form video.” But we prefer a broad definition of any video lasting 5 – 90 seconds, which aligns with the favored video durations across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. <p>Which brings us to a key point: <strong>videos at the longer end of the short-form spectrum tend to perform better</strong>. <p>In fact, <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1372569/tiktok-video-duration-by-number-of-views/">data</a> shows that the most successful TikTok accounts (AKA those with the most followers) post longer videos, on average, than smaller accounts. <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5125 lazyload" src="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAsUAAAGvAQAAAACbN5UUAAAAAnRSTlMAAHaTzTgAAAA8SURBVHja7cExAQAAAMKg9U9tCj+gAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOBll4YAAVFKVwoAAAAASUVORK5CYII=" alt="" width="709" height="431" data-wp-pid="5125" data-src="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length.png?x37903" data-srcset="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length.png 709w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length-300x182.png 300w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length-600x365.png 600w" data-sizes="auto" data-eio-rwidth="709" data-eio-rheight="431" /><noscript><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5125" src="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length.png?x37903" alt="" width="709" height="431" data-wp-pid="5125" srcset="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length.png 709w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length-300x182.png 300w, https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/tiktok-accounts-by-followers-video-length-600x365.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px" data-eio="l" /></noscript> <p><a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1372569/tiktok-video-duration-by-number-of-views/">Image source</a> <p>This is backed up by separate research from <a href="https://buffer.com/resources/best-tiktok-video-length/">Buffer</a>, which found that the longer the TikTok video, the more views it tends to get. <p>So don’t think that your short-form strategy has to be all about bite-sized videos. There’s plenty of scope for longer content — just keep it within the 90-second limit for best results. <h2>3. Grab Attention Early</h2> <p>Clearly, most users on short-form video platforms don’t visit your profile to view your content — they stumble across it by chance in their <em>for you </em>feed. <p>It’s easy for social media users to get into the habit of mindlessly scrolling up to get to the next video (<em>and the next, and the next</em>). So if you’re going to stop them in their tracks, you need to capture their attention in the opening couple seconds. <p>Do this by starting your short-form video with an attention-grabbing sound or eye-catching visual. Just like this frankly alarming example from Duolingo: <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@duolingo/video/7411261710117457195" data-video-id="7411261710117457195"> <section><a title="@duolingo" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@duolingo?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@duolingo</a> STREAK REMINDER 🔥🗣️🗣️ <a title="streak" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/streak?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#streak</a> <a title="duolingo" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/duolingo?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#duolingo</a> <a title="streaks" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/streaks?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#streaks</a> <a title="♬ som original - luinz🅱️7️⃣" href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/som-original-7402741632908626693?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">♬ som original – luinz🅱️7️⃣</a></section> </blockquote> <p><script async src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script> <h2>4. Add Captions for Accessibility</h2> <p>This next tip applies to any type of video content, regardless of length: make it accessible by adding captions. <p>In the US, <a href="https://www.nidcd.nih.gov/health/statistics/quick-statistics-hearing">approximately 15% of adults</a> report some trouble hearing. That’s around 37.5 million people who might not be able to hear your video. What’s more, if we exclude non-social users, <strong>just under </strong><a href="https://st4.ca/blog/85-really-facebook-without-sound"><strong>three-quarters of people</strong></a><strong> choose to watch social media videos without the sound turned up</strong>. So unless your video requires literally <em>zero</em> additional context, if you don’t add captions, it’s guaranteed to miss the mark with a large chunk of your audience. <p>Glossier shows us the value of captions in short-form video in this Instagram Reel: <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9C5V_My9Pq/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14"> <div style="padding: 16px;"> <p> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;"></div> </div> </div> <div style="padding: 19% 0;"></div> <div style="display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;"></div> <div style="padding-top: 8px;"> <div style="color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;">View this post on Instagram</div> </div> <div style="padding: 12.5% 0;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; margin-bottom: 14px; align-items: center;"> <div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(0px) translateY(7px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; height: 12.5px; transform: rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px); width: 12.5px; flex-grow: 0; margin-right: 14px; margin-left: 2px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; height: 12.5px; width: 12.5px; transform: translateX(9px) translateY(-18px);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: 8px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 20px; width: 20px;"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 2px solid transparent; border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4; border-bottom: 2px solid transparent; transform: translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg);"></div> </div> <div style="margin-left: auto;"> <div style="width: 0px; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-right: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(16px);"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; flex-grow: 0; height: 12px; width: 16px; transform: translateY(-4px);"></div> <div style="width: 0; height: 0; border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4; border-left: 8px solid transparent; transform: translateY(-4px) translateX(8px);"></div> </div> </div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center; margin-bottom: 24px;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 224px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 144px;"></div> </div> <p> <p style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;"><a style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;" href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9C5V_My9Pq/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A post shared by Glossier (@glossier)</a> </div> </blockquote> <p><script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script> <p>Without them, anyone watching without sound would miss all the key information about the dates and locations of the brand’s New York popups. <p>Fortunately, adding captions isn’t complicated.

Position Captions in the Right Place</h2> <p>So we’re agreed: captioning your videos is a <em>good thing</em>. <p>But where should those captions sit within your video content? <p>As a general rule, <strong>it’s best to position captions in the lower center of the screen</strong>. But you should move them to make space for important visual elements in your video, such as the product you’re promoting.

Add a Persuasive CTA</h2> <p>Whatever conversions you’re trying to generate, short-form video can deliver an impressive return on your marketing bucks. <p>But that’ll only happen if you make your content <em>actionable</em>. By which we mean <strong>your videos should include a clear, compelling call to action (CTA)</strong>, such as: <ul> <li>Click through to a campaign landing page</li> <li>Shop your sale or buy your latest product</li> <li>Comment on your video post</li> </ul> <p>Soft drink brand Recess shows how to do it: <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@takearecess/video/7397157313691307294" data-video-id="7397157313691307294"> <section><a title="@takearecess" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@takearecess?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@takearecess</a>Recess happy hour giveaway alert!

Loop Your Short-Form Content</h2> <p>Want a quick-and-dirty tip that can encourage viewers to watch your content for longer? <p>Try creating looping videos without an obvious start or end point, like this example from Everlane: <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@everlane/video/7409343870045031711" data-video-id="7409343870045031711"> <section><a title="@everlane" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@everlane?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@everlane</a> @Lara is serving in the new Utility Pants.🤍 The Labor Day Sale continues all weekend long with 25% off sitewide. <a title="everlane" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/everlane?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#Everlane</a> <a title="barrelpants" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/barrelpants?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#barrelpants</a> <a title="barreljeans" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/barreljeans?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#barreljeans</a> <a title="utilitypants" href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/utilitypants?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">#utilitypants</a> <a title="♬ original sound - Everlane" href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-7409343840466766622?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">♬ original sound – Everlane</a></section> </blockquote> <p><script async src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script> <p><em>Kinda hypnotic, huh?</em> <p>The beauty of this type of short, sharp video content is that the viewer doesn’t instantly realize they’ve reached the end of the video, so they’re more likely to watch it <em>all over again</em>. <p>This can be helpful for reinforcing key messages. The more times someone sees your CTA, the more likely they are to take action. <p>(And, as a side note, this tactic can also boost your view count on platforms like TikTok.) <h2>9. Keep Videos Snappy To Boost Engagement</h2> <p>Just because a video is short, there’s no guarantee your audience will keep watching to the end. <p>Today, our social feeds are so cluttered that it’s easy to get distracted by the <em>next thing</em>. Which means we’re constantly battling to keep viewers engaged and paying attention. <p>Of course, there’s no one-size-fits-all formula for creating engaging short-form video content. But one effective approach is to make your videos feel more <em>dynamic</em>. That means <strong>ditching long, static shots in favor of snappy transitions</strong> (plus plenty of animations, overlays, and other visual effects). <p>Let’s take a look at this tip in action, courtesy of Converse: <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@converse/video/7408978191320108318" data-video-id="7408978191320108318"> <section><a title="@converse" href="https://www.tiktok.com/@converse?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@converse</a>HOW TO PLAN A GOOD PARTY Step 1: Put RENEGADE NYC in charge of everything DJs: KXAH Nas Leber DAZEGXD Shot by: Renegade NYC Music by: Doctor Jeep “Mecha”<a title="♬ original sound - Converse" href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-7408978128074279711?refer=embed" target="_blank" rel="noopener">♬ original sound – Converse</a></section> </blockquote> <p><script async src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script> <p>This video is 47 seconds long — pretty lengthy by TikTok standards. But it keeps us engaged throughout with constant camera movement and diverse perspectives that switch rapidly from close-ups to long-shots to drone footage. <p>All of which makes you want to stick around. <h2>10. Stick To a Consistent Posting Schedule</h2> <p>The popularity of platforms like Instagram and TikTok stems from their ability to present users with content they’ll <em>love</em>. <p>It’s all down to the magic of their algorithms: they quickly identify when a video is generating lots of views — then show that same video to a ton of other people. <p>Keeping the algorithm happy is all about creating and sharing a consistent stream of content. Ideally, aim to post once a day, or at least weekly if that’s not possible. That way, you’ll always have enough fresh content for the algorithm to select from and show to your audience. <p>👉 <strong>Learn more: </strong><a href="https://blog.socialmediastrategiessummit.com/social-media-content-calendar/">12 Strategies For Creating an Effective Social Media Content Calendar</a> <p><strong>Want to learn proven social media strategies from industry leaders?
