SEO article

TikTok Newsroom site

Monetization article

Goal

 Create a well-rounded, SEO-informed article for TikTok's newsroom site 

THE PROCESS

  •  Use Content Gap Analysis and SEO keywords (using SEM Rush) 
  • Understand user-intent thorough keywords, search up phrases on google to see pages that were ranking - are they answering the same question? 
  • Train with superiors who oversaw the article process Content Gap Analysis: 
  • Originally, article was supposed to be about accessibility. Couldn't make original content. Most of the keywords searched was about text-to- speech 
  • Low MSV / mediocre KD 

Monetization

  • Pivoted to monetization 
  • Few ways on how TikTok could help users monetize work - updated 
  • Mentioned Creator Fund, Live Gifting, etc. and previewed a new feature rolling out Reviewed keyword research table, selected variety of long-tail and short keywords 
  • Worked on writing a draft 

The Draft

  • Formatted for scanability 
  • Short sentences
  • Bullets/SEO phrases in headings for anchor texts 
  • Align with user intent
  • Link out other newsroom articles for backlinks 
  • In TikTok's brand voice (avoid saying "make money," instead said words like earn, rewards, monetize 

The Review

  • Met with superior consistently, messaged her regularly to give her my updates so she was in the loop 
  • Created 2-3 drafts, had her review them/reword certain parts 

Accessibility

Senior UX Project

As a final project for my UX class, I took what I learned about accessibility from my internship at TikTok, and replicated it on project centered around making VALLEY Magazine more accessible. Through this, I fleshed out requirements analysis, UI design, activity scenarios, prototypes, and more.
