Frequently asked questions
What is a good engagement rate on TikTok?
Healthy is 4% to 8% on organic posts. Elite creators regularly cross 10%. Anything under 1.5% suggests bought followers or stale content.
Should I use followers or followers-at-post-time?
For most brand-fit decisions, current followers is fine. If a creator went viral last week their historic posts will look inflated — sanity-check with a recent post.
Why is engagement rate more useful than follower count?
A creator with 25k followers and 8% ER often outperforms one with 500k and 1% ER on both organic reach and Spark Ad CTR.
