Tiktok Analytics Tools Mobile Phone App Featured

Social media is one of the most powerful ways to get your message to the public. One of the youngest platforms is TikTok, and it’s proving to be a contender in the social media world. 

Don't believe me? Here's an impressive statistic any marketer should take note of. According to a Sensor Tower report, within the first half-year of its release, people downloaded the app 104 million times. Researchers at Mobile Marketer estimate that TikTok will reach 60.3 million U.S. consumers by 2024. 

These numbers are staggering and prove why bloggers, marketers, and digital agencies should at least keep an eye on this new social platform. And if you market to Gen Z, you'll want to see what's working on the platform and why. Let's get nerdy on this guide to the best TikTok analytics tools. Currently, there aren't as many tools to analyze TikTok as for Instagram, for example. But new players enter the market regularly. This list should narrow your choices a bit. 

A Brief TikTok Intro

TikTok is a video and music-sharing social media platform owned by a Chinese company called ByteDance. The app was introduced outside of China in 2017 and quickly rose in popularity. 

The most popular kind of content is brief video clips where users dance and perform lip-syncing. Marketers can use the platform to share videos that promote their products or businesses. The key is to use humor and share-worthy posts. This is not a place for boring, old-school marketing.

Why Do I Need TikTok Analytics?

Social media is a way to get you or your business’s message out there. Social media platforms have given companies and marketers the most cost-effective avenue to share their brand, engage with influencers, and sell products and services in 2022. 7 out of 10 Americans use social media. TikTok has exploded in popularity and gained millions of users quickly and is a superb channel for brand promotion and competitor analysis.

Businesses, large and small, can benefit from using an analytics tool on the platform. How? Well, for a start they can help inform decisions that will get your videos in front of more people. Businesses can use in-depth insights to improve customer relationships and discover fresh ways to engage with their audience. These tools also let you monitor the competition and get valuable insights into the direction your industry is heading in.

The old adage says to work smarter, not harder. You can do just that with the right TikTok analytics tool. Good data will show you how well your campaign is doing and where you can improve. 

The Best TikTok Analytics Tools

TikTok Analytics

This tool is only available to users of a TikTok pro account. A pro account gives you TikTok analytics that regular accounts lack. Details like the times when users interact with your account or view and engage with your video are useful for evaluating your content strategies. To create a pro account, all you need to do is access your account settings from your TikTok profile page. Open Settings and Privacy. Tap Manage Account and under “account control” tap Switch to Pro Account.

Choose Creator or Business and select the type of content or topic you post about. The app will then open the analytics page.

The overview includes video views, profile views, and followers. Get location demographics, reports on follower gender, and your followers' favorite videos. The content section shows how well your videos have performed by giving you the total “play time” and views. Your content will also include the average watch time and how your viewers reached your post. The Followers section lets you get to know who your followers are by grouping them by gender. 

TikTok Analytics will give you the latest statistics for posts from the past 7 to 28 days. 

Exolyt

Exolyt is a TikTok analytics tool for social media managers, digital agencies, influencers, and TikTok marketers. Get insights on any account profile or video. If you're looking for a way to build a campaign strategy based on a competitor's strategy or a similar account's successes, this is the tool for you. 

Exolyt was created by four passionate coders from Helsinki, Finland with the vision of helping influencers and marketing managers to improve their performance. I think they've done a pretty good job. Here's why.

Exoloyt provides influencers and agencies with an abundance of information. You can measure and track profiles based on daily progress, follower count, engagement rates, video views, comments, and more. This tool is the place to see how your competitors are doing. And a great feature is the ability to compare accounts. You will get a simple analysis of your campaign progress with a side-by-side comparison. 

For influencers, it's a great way to keep on top of your competitors' strategies. Marketing and social media agencies can present these reports to clients and or use them to build stronger marketing campaigns. 

Social media agencies and marketers get one of the most powerful suites of tools for TikTok monitoring and insights. If you run a marketing agency that works with TikTok influencers or you run your own organic and paid TikTok campaigns, Exolyt is an invaluable tool.

Serious influencers and social media agencies love Analisa for several reasons. This tool provides easy to digest graphs with all the information you need for a knockout content strategy.

Analisa started out as an Instagram analytics tool and it's one of the best in the business.

Analisa lets you look at all aspects of campaign reporting. As with the other tools, you get access to metrics such as likes, comments, shares, and engagements.

Scroll down for an in-depth analysis of the account's Average Engagement, Average Likes and Comments per Post, most used hashtags, most used caption words, tags, mentions, and more.

As one of the more expensive products on this list, Analisa is aimed at serious influences, agencies, and marketers interested in having all the data to make decisions. However, there is a free Basic plan which lets you analyze unlimited TikTok profiles and hashtags. The premium pricing level costs around $59 based on a yearly subscription.

TikTok campaign monitoring just got better with Pentos. They pride themselves on the fact that users can use profiles, hashtags, songs, and videos to analyze their campaign strategy.

The biggest downside is the lack of real-time updates. It refreshes only once daily. 

Popsters

Popsters is a familiar tool for many social media managers and influencers. Analyze profiles, captions, and hashtags on 12 different platforms. You do not have to register to use Popsters for TikTok analytics and the reports are free.

Users have access to six sections of metrics that include engagement rate per hour and day. You can learn what posts are attracting visitors and sort them by engagement, length, and popularity.

Basic statistics like the number of shares, likes, and comments on posts for the past year are available. 

Tips to Help You Choose the right tool

We have given you a lot of information, and it just wouldn’t be right if we didn't give you some tips to help you choose the best software.

Beginners and casual analytics fans can use any of the free tools or the lower plans on Analisa and Exolyt.

Popsters is great for users who just want to track the performance of a campaign. It analyses profiles and hashtags and gives users easy-to-use charts for comparison. If you are looking to focus on video or music, then Pentos is a good choice.
