In addition to identifying well-liked TikTok postings, this algorithm examines their performance indicators and makes sure the material fits your niche.
Understanding the Core Components
Before we delve into the setup process, let's understand the key platforms we'll be working with:
Make.com (formerly Integromat):
An automation platform that connects various applications and services together, allowing you to create powerful workflows without coding knowledge.

Setting Up Your Automation Infrastructure
Creating accounts on Make.com and Apify is the initial step in creating this viral content discovery system. Although there are free tiers on both sites to get you started, you must be aware of their price structures:
Apify charges approximately 10 cents per 1,000 posts scraped
Make.com offers various plans based on your automation needs

Configuring the TikTok Scraper
Within Apify, we'll use their TikTok scraper tool, which is both cost-effective and powerful. Here's how to set it up:
Navigate to the Apify store
Search for "TikTok scraper"
Select the basic TikTok scraper option
Configure your search parameters
Pro tip: Before scaling up, start with a lesser number of articles (100–1000) to test your workflow and optimize your settings.

Setting Up Virality Filters
One of the most crucial aspects of this workflow is establishing proper virality metrics. Based on the video, here are the recommended thresholds:
Minimum views: 10,000
Views to follower ratio: 50% (views should be 50x the channel's follower count)
Share ratio: 1% of viewers should share the content
Like ratio: 5% of viewers should like the content
Bookmark ratio: 3% of viewers should save the content

Implementing ChatGPT Analysis
The video hashtags will be analyzed using ChatGPT to make sure the material is relevant to your niche. The format of the ChatGPT prompt should be as follows:
"I create content around [YOUR NICHE]. Please analyze these TikTok hashtags and let me know if any of them are related to [YOUR NICHE]. If they are, return the word 'true'; if not, return the word 'false'."
Optimizing Your Results
Once your process is operational, you should edit the virality metrics to suit your goals and area of expertise. Don't be afraid to change the thresholds to account for the higher engagement rates that some niches naturally generate.
