TikTok Shop captions and hashtags

The post caption carries the claim or the joke and the cart line. Three to six hashtags do the rest: the product's nickname, its niche and a shop tag.

Three to six is enough. A wall of hashtags doesn't add reach and pushes the caption's first line out of view.

On-screen text, not just the caption

  • The hook text: one or two lowercase lines ending in an emoji, top-middle third, first three seconds.
  • After the hook, at most one or two overlays: a price, "linked below ๐Ÿ‘‡".
  • Burned-in word captions fit voiceover formats; keep them off the hook line. Our AI places captions by format.
