If you're looking to upload your music from platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon to TikTok, and increase your visibility, here’s a step-by-step guide to get started, along with how you can leverage TokAssist and AIOStream to maximize your impact.

Step 1: Distribute Your Music to TikTok via a Music Distribution Platform

The first step to getting your music on TikTok is through a distribution platform like TuneCore, DistroKid, or CD Baby. These platforms help artists get their music onto TikTok, along with other major platforms.

1.1 Register and Choose a Distribution Platform

Start by choosing a platform like TuneCore, DistroKid, or CD Baby. Sign up, create an account, and choose the distribution package that works for you.

1.2 Upload Your Music

Once registered, upload your music (which you've already published on Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon). Fill in the necessary details such as album artwork, song info, and any other required metadata.

1.3 Choose TikTok as a Distribution Channel

In the distribution settings, select TikTok as one of the platforms where your music should be sent. This ensures your songs will be available for users on TikTok to use as background music in their videos.

1.4 Submit and Wait for Approval

After submitting your music, the distribution platform will review your submission. This process usually takes a few days. Once approved, your music will be available on TikTok for users to use in their videos.

Step 2: Use Your Music on TikTok

Once your music is distributed, users can use your tracks in their videos, or you can create content using your own music.

2.1 Open TikTok and Start Creating

Open the TikTok app and log into your account. Tap the "+" button to start a new video.

2.2 Add Audio to Your Video

On the recording screen, tap the "Add Sound" button at the top. Use the search bar to find your song by typing the song name or artist name.

2.3 Select Your Song and Start Recording

When you find your song, TikTok will automatically set it as the background music. You can choose which part of the song you’d like to use for your video. Tap "Start Recording" when you're ready.

2.4 Record and Edit Your Video

Record your video while using your music. TikTok offers various effects and editing tools to enhance your video. After recording, click the checkmark to finalize it.

2.5 Publish Your Video

Add a catchy title, relevant hashtags (such as #Music or your song name), and choose your privacy settings. Once done, hit "Post" to share your video with the world.

2.6 Share and Spread the Word

After posting, your video will appear on your TikTok profile. Users who see it can click the music note icon in the video to discover and use your song in their own videos.

Step 3: Boost Your Exposure and Royalties

To maximize the exposure of your music and increase the number of users who incorporate it into their TikTok videos, consider these strategies:

3.1 Create Your Own Content Using Your Music

Publish your own creative videos using your music. By featuring your tracks in your videos, you encourage other users to use your music as well.

3.2 Participate in Popular Challenges and Trends

Engage with popular TikTok challenges and trends using your music. This can increase the chances of your track being used by a wider audience.

3.3 Collaborate with TikTok Creators

Reach out to TikTok influencers and creators to use your music in their videos. Offering incentives such as a collaboration can help you gain more traction.
