TikTok is not satisfied with being solely and exclusively the social network where short videos and little else are shared. That’s why they keep introducing new features and the latest one will be especially useful for anyone who wants to build stronger bonds with their followers. The questions and answers come to TikTok.
The new TikTok Q&A button
During the last months we have seen how TikTok has been introducing various changes and novelties in its video platform. All of them with the sole purpose of improving the user experience of those who access it. And not only news on topics of creativity or discovery, also related to warnings of possible epileptic seizures when some of the videos that are published include flashes and other image effects that could generate these health problems.
However, in terms of usability and interaction, there are always new possibilities that the platform can experiment with and that could help give it a lot of value for something more than sharing dances. The last one they are already testing with is one of them.
On this occasion, it could be said that it is TikTok that now copies, but that is the least of it. The important thing is that a new function comes to the social network with which users will have the possibility of creating a question and answer section.
Thanks to this Q&A, creators will be able to interact with their community of followers in a more direct way. And this is interesting for all those who share content that lends itself to such interaction. For example, knowledge of finance or any artistic discipline. Although it is logical that anyone could take advantage of it if you know well how to interact with your audience and what things you could ask or let them ask you.
Finally, although it is expected that once the official launch occurs, anyone can access this feature, for now only those users who have more than 10,000 users can do so. If this is your case and you want to try, the only thing you would have to do a priori is access your profile from the mobile application and request access to Q&A.
How to create and answer polls on TikTok
Once you have activated the Q&A option you can start using it. And your followers will have the opportunity to ask you anything they want. Another thing is that later you want to answer or not. If you decide to do it, you can use from individual videos to direct ones for it. What’s more, these questions are also available on these broadcasts.
But how can your followers leave you new questions on TikTok. Well, there are two locations within the TikTok mobile application.
- The first is located in the messages section of the videos. There you can see a new icon that gives access to the possibility of asking what you want
- The second location will be in the profile of the user to whom you want to ask something. Again you will see the same icon that gives access to this section of Questions and Answers
All these questions as we say will reach a special section to make it easier to manage and answer. There will be no limits to questions or the obligation to answer everything, but if you want to create a greater bond with those who follow you, it will be advisable to do so.
For the rest, there is little to tell about an option that is already familiar to most users of other platforms. So it only remains that when it is officially launched it reaches everyone and see how network users take advantage of it and how it may or may not change the way its content is consumed.
