You are writing a paper and the deadline is approaching, but you are nowhere near the page limit. Many students find themselves in this position. Luckily for you, you can lengthen your paper by using a few tricks. Increasing the font size, adding a lengthy header, and manipulating the spacing between lines are just a few strategies you can use to make your essay appear longer. However, be aware that breaking your teacher’s guidelines may result in a lower grade.

Playing with the Font

Step 1 Choose a slightly larger font.

  • Don’t pick a very large font like Arial Black or Lucida Handwriting. Your teacher will notice that you are trying to make your essay longer by choosing a larger font.

Step 2 Adjust the font size.

Manipulating Spacing and Margins

Step 1 Increase the spacing between lines.

  • If the increase is too noticeable, then try 1.15 or 1.1 instead.
  • Because all documents are left justified, avoid increasing the left margin. Adjusting the left margin will produce a noticeable change that your teacher will detect.

Step 3 Increase the bottom margin by a quarter.

Adjusting the Header and Footer

Step 1 Lengthen your header.

Expanding the Content

Step 1 Spell out numbers less than ten.

  • Additionally, if you are quoting or paraphrasing research or literature, make sure to cite it properly. Citations can add extra length to a paper as well.

Step 5 Ensure that each paragraph has a topic and a concluding sentence.

  • Expand your introductory paragraph with an attention-getting statement to hook the reader in.

Step 6 Be as descriptive as possible.

  • However, try to avoid being descriptive when it is unnecessary since this may cause your paper to appear embellished or sound verbose.

Step 7 Draw out your conclusion.

To make an essay appear longer than it is, pick a font that's slightly larger than Times New Roman, like Arial, Courier New, or Cambria. If you're required to use 12-point font, try increase the font to 12.1 or 12.2 to gain some extra length without the font looking noticeably larger. Then, press on Control and the F key at the same time to activate the find and replace function, and replace all of the commas and periods with 14-point font. If the essay still isn't long enough, increase the line spacing by 0.1 or 0.2 and make the right margin 0.1-0.2 inches larger.

How to make an Essay Longer – 21 Easy Tips!

Just about all the advice on the first page of google about how to make a paper longer sucks. No, really. The tricks they suggest suck so bad I can’t believe how bad it sucks.

Most advice on how to make your essay longer tells you to do gimmicky things that will lose you marks.

how to make an essay longer

How do I know? Because I read it. And I (yes, I’m a professor) would instantly see through all those things.

Let me tell you: if you’re wasting time turning “15” into “fifteen” to get an extra 6 characters into your essay , increasing font size, or sticking fluffy adjectives into sentences to make your essay longer and increase word count, you’re stuffing up. You’re flushing marks down the drain.

So, here’s what you SHOULD do to make your essay longer.

How to Make an Essay Longer

1. make sure you included everything.

I can’t tell you how many of my students submit assignments and forget to include important points! Go back to your writing prompt . That’s the thing that you’re going to be graded on.

Go and check out exactly what your teacher asked you to write about. Did you write about every point they suggested?

2. Make Every Paragraph at least 4 Sentences

Scan over each paragraph. Do you have any paragraphs that are less than 4 sentences long? This is your low-hanging fruit for making your paper longer. You need to make these paragraphs longer and your page count will naturally increase.

The best paragraphs should be 4 – 7 sentences long .

If you’ve got a 1, 2 or 3 sentence paragraph, make sure you go back through it. What new points can you include to make your paragraph better? Maybe you can:

  • Add a sentence at the start of the paragraph explaining what the paragraph is about;
  • Add a sentence giving a real-life example of the points you’re trying to make
  • Add a sentence giving an explanation of your points.

Or, you can try adding points explaining:

  • Why the thing is true;
  • Where the thing happened;
  • How the thing happened;
  • When the thing happened.

3. Define your Terms

Have you written a paragraph defining your key terms? If you’re writing an essay on modernism, write a paragraph defining modernism. If your essay is about education , write a paragraph giving a brief history of education. This will make your paper better – and longer!

You should have a paragraph or two right after your introduction defining and explaining what your topic is!

Now, if you are going to provide a definition for a term in college or university level writing , you need to read this article . In it, I show you how to write a full paragraph that defines a term in the right way using a research paper, not a dictionary!.

4. Get new Ideas from your Class Handouts

Below are the class handouts that you should go back through to add new ideas. They’re your most important sources. Go through all these sources and try to take down and more key points you can add:

  • Handouts or worksheets in class?
  • Readings or articles that they asked you to read?
  • Lecture slides?

6. Get new Ideas from Friends

You will have many classmates working on the same essay as you. What ideas have your friends come up with? See if you can find out. You want it to seem like you’re working to help each other out. You don’t want to be a sponge, taking from them and not giving back. Help each other out so you both get better marks. I recommend being strategic about this:

  • Offer to look over each others’ work and give suggestions;
  • Trade key points in bullet point format;
  • Brainstorm together to create a master list of key ideas.

8. Get new Ideas from Blogs

There are websites online about just about every topic that you can possibly imagine. That includes the topic you’re writing your essay on!

Let me ask you a question: Why would you waste your time trying to add padding to old sentences to increase your word count when you can write new ones that will win more marks?

It’s really so simple – google your essay topic or question and see what comes up. What have other people said on the topic? What ideas can you grab from others and use for yourself? You can also get new ideas from Google Scholar, which can provide you with a free to access research paper that will give you ideas as well. 

12. Use the Keep Writing Website

Keep Writing is a website where you can write your essay. But, it won’t let you delete anything. So you have to just keep on typing. This means you can just write ideas that roll off the top of your head. I gave this website a go to write this article you’re reading right now and it really did help me just write in a way that flowed nicely and added to my page count quickly. I must admit, after using the website, I copied the text and did some edits. But by that point I had a ton of words in there – more than enough – and I could shorten the essay by deleting the words that weren’t so good. I ended up having the opposite problem – too many words!

13. Include one new Example in Each Paragraph

Another thing you can do is go through each and every paragraph and add one more example and some supporting evidence. Even if you’ve included one example in each paragraph, that’s okay. You can still add more examples. In fact, teachers love to see examples and supporting evidence.

Good examples are what separates good and bad students.

Teachers love to see examples because you can only give examples if you understand the topic. So, when we see examples we go “Yes! You Got It! You understand it!”

16. Don’t add Pointless Words!

‘Padding’ is what we call it when you stick extra words in a sentence just to increase your word count. I’ve taken a sentence from earlier in this post and I’m going to show you the sentence as it is, then show it to you with padding.

Here’s the original:

“You’re going to need some new points to add to your essay. You should not try to make your sentences you’ve already written longer. You shouldn’t be trying to add in fluffy new words or saying things in a longer way.”

Here’s the padding:

“You’re going to need some new points to actually add to your essay , which actually is quite significant . You should not actually try to generally make your sentences you’ve already written longer , generally contrary to popular belief . You shouldn’t be trying to generally add in fluffy new words or saying things in a longer way , which is fairly significant. ”

Your teacher is going to read this and think “This student is a terrible writer.” And you’ll lose a ton of marks.

17. Don’t Change the Formatting

Increasing the line spacing, font size or character spacing will just make your paper worse. You should have ONE space between each word. Your line spacing should either be 2.0 or 1.5 spacing. That’s it. Those are your options. Stick to normal margins in Microsoft Word You should use font size 12. If you artificially change any of this, your teacher will see through it and grade you down .

Final Thoughts

Making an essay longer needs to be done in a way that will get you marks. I can’t believe that there are websites ranking high on google that recommend tricks like “make the space between lines bigger” and “increase your margins”.

If a student did that in my class, I’d fail them instantly. There are smarter and better ways to do it – whether you’re writing a grade 7 essay or dissertation chapter! Do it the right way and you’ll grow your marks and be on the way to success.

How to Make an Essay Longer Than It Really Is: 9 Hacks that Work

Stefani H.

Table of contents

How often have you finished writing your essay and run a word count check to realize you’re way behind the required word count?

If anyone’s been there, they’ll know that feeling of absolute disappointment -- when you’re close to the finish line yet so far.

Word counts matter because they create a level-playing field for all students. They ensure that every student is given the same number of words to make their point.

One of the most common challenges students face is the inability to meet the desired word count, especially in the case of long-form essays or research papers .

So, if you’re wondering how you can make your essay longer than it is, we tell you what you should and should NOT do to meet the word count.

9 Hacks to Make an Essay Longer than it is

“ What else can I write about? ”

How often have you asked yourself this question after writing your entire paper?

You’re not alone -- writing 5,000-word essays is tricky. Sometimes you feel you’ve exhausted your points, but the word count has a different story to tell.

Here are nine legitimate hacks to make your essay longer and meet the word limit.

1. Refer to the scoring rubric

“ But I’ve already done that.. ”

Nope. You need to give it another go.

You would have read the prompt and scoring rubric once before beginning your essay, but when you’re at a stage when you have to lengthen your essay, it helps to go back and re-read them to see if you’ve missed out on anything.

Go line-by-line -- look into every criterion and trace it back to your essay. Does it cover every specification mentioned in the rubric?

Pay attention to detail and strive to identify gaps that you can address in order to add further value to your essay and make it longer in the process.

2. Identify additional sources

It’s true that the more research material you read, the more fodder you’ll find for your essay. Hence, if you’re looking to make your essay longer, it’s a good idea to identify additional sources of information and implement them in your essay.

Remember the research you did in the initial stages? Go back to it and look for additional research material in the form of online articles, journals, encyclopedias, research studies, and more that could help.

3. Describe what you want to say

Descriptive writing is an effective way to lengthen your essay while making it more robust. As the name suggests, descriptive writing refers to describing concepts or ideas in vivid detail.

Don’t just stop at short phrases; describe what you’re trying to say to illustrate your point, and put forth the message clearly.

While writing descriptively, it’s a good practice to paint a picture that appeals to all five senses -- sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing.

Even though this might not be possible in every scenario, keep this hack in mind and use it wherever appropriate to increase the word count.

Here’s an interesting video by eHow Education on how to become a descriptive writer

4. Include examples

Using examples while writing essays is perfect practice. It helps you write more clearly and put forth your point while strongly backing up your arguments and adding credibility.

Apart from that, this practice also lends to the word count.

Examples can explain information that isn’t common knowledge, reinstate an argument, highlight a concept, or even draw differences.

So, try and use examples in the form of real-life scenarios, paraphrasing, quotations, and even metaphors wherever possible. Here are some phrases you can use to introduce examples:

  • For example
  • For instance
  • According to [insert author’s name]
  • As stated by [name of the author or study]

5. Include statistical data

Numbers are robust and provide practical tools to support your claims or persuade the reader. Read your essay and find sentences that can be strengthened with statistical data.

What’s important is ensuring they’re relevant to the topic, add value to the essay, and let readers interpret it with ease.

As data generally stems from existing studies or research material, ensure you only include data from credible sources, as its absence is sure to do more harm than good.

6. Insert illustrations

Why submit text-heavy essays when you can insert illustrations and make them meatier (and longer)?

You can use illustrations in the form of images, screenshots, graphs, infographics, and charts to strengthen your argument. The idea is to illustrate your point with greater precision, so ensure you only insert relevant illustrations.

Don’t forget to add a crisp caption explaining what the image is about and citing the original source.

7. Write well-formatted paragraphs

Your essay is made up of smaller, coherent paragraphs that are meant to offer a unified reading experience. Just the way an essay is made up of an introduction , body, and conclusion, each individual paragraph also comprises three elements:

  • the topic or leading sentence
  • supporting sentence
  • concluding sentence

So, while re-reading your essay to make it longer, make sure every paragraph has these three elements.

8. Use transition words

A good writer can transition from one point to another while keeping readers engaged. That’s precisely what you need to aim for while writing college papers.

However, this trick also comes in handy when trying to make your essay longer.

Words or phrases used to link sentences are referred to as transition words. Some examples include:

  • Additionally
  • Even though
  • Generally speaking

These phrases create links between your sentences, making them seem unified and coherent while adding to the reading experience. They give examples, emphasize, compare, draw conclusions, or summarize.

9. Avoid contractions

Why say ‘can’t’ when you can say ‘cannot’? Why say ‘isn’t’ when you can say ‘is not’?

While contractions are common in speech and even informal writing, such as blog posts, it’s better to avoid contractions while writing academic papers unless you’re quoting something that originally includes contractions.

This might seem like a minor step but using this hack (along with the others) will get you closer to the word count.

Here’s What You Should NOT Do to Make Your Essay Longer

While these were legitimate hacks, there are instances when students resort to desperate measures to lengthen their essays.

Let’s face it- your teachers have come across hundreds of essays, and they can spot foul play well when they see it.

So, here are three mistakes you should avoid at all costs if you’re trying to make your essay longer.

1. Play with fonts and spacing

You might think you can cheekily increase the font size from 12 to 14, use a larger font or increase the line spacing and make your essay appear longer but hey, stop right there.

This isn’t going to get you anywhere.

2. Use the ‘period’ trick

The period trick is about replacing all periods (.) across your essay with one of larger font size and wondering if professors notice the period trick. Guess what they do. So, please don’t do it.

3. Spell out numbers

The age-old trick of writing ten thousand instead of 10,000 is not a good idea either. Remember: the golden rule of writing states that small numbers ranging from one to ten should be spelled out, and more significant numbers should be written in numerals.

So, unless specified in the formatting guidelines, don’t make the mistake of spelling out all your numbers.

Make your Essay Longer: The Takeaway

Yes, it’s not a good feeling when you get to the end of your essay and have to go over it again just because you did not meet the word limit.

But you instead take this additional step than submit a half-baked essay that falls short of the required word count? Doing this indicates that you’re not adhering to instructions and is sure to impact your final score.

So, follow these nine hacks and make your essay longer than it is through legitimate means. If you’re stuck and need additional guidance, contact Writers Per Hour.

How to Make an Essay Longer the Smart Way

Meeting an essay’s required page or word count can sometimes be a struggle, especially if you’re juggling multiple papers or exams. In a pinch, students often rely on tricks like increasing margin size or making their font slightly bigger. Though these tricks do increase page length, there are easier (and smarter) ways to write a longer, high-quality essay. Making a paper meet minimum word or page counts doesn’t have to be an agonizing process—you can add length while also adding clarity and depth.

Here are 10 tips on how you can write a longer and a smarter essay, even if the deadline is fast approaching:

Tip #1: Look Back at Your Prompt/Rubric/etc.

If you’ve been provided a comprehensive prompt or rubric for an essay, read it, and read it again. Think about the following:

  • Did you answer all of the questions in the prompt?
  • Did you provide supporting evidence to back up whatever claims you made?
  • Did you leave out any information that might increase the reader’s understanding of your argument?
  • Did you meet all requirements (besides length) for the paper?

If the answer isn’t a decisive “yes” to every question on this list, go back and revise.

Tip #2: Go Back Through Your Introduction and Conclusion

Often times, ideas evolve while writing a paper. If the first thing you wrote was the introduction, go back and reread the first paragraph. You might decide that you left out key information that aids the reader in understanding your argument. When looking back on the conclusion, make sure you’ve both summarized the main points within the essay and provided your reader with a solution to consider. If you don’t feel you’ve done this, go back through and revise the paper.

Tip #3: Have Someone Proofread Your Essay

Even if you’re short on time ask a friend, sibling, or parent to read through your paper, specifically noting any points they find confusing. Then, go back and revise the parts that were unclear, adding in more information to provide readers with further clarity. You have a more comprehensive understanding of what you’re writing about than your reader, so having someone else look over your paper can be a helpful way to ensure that you haven’t missed any important details.

Tip #4: Use Quotations

Chances are, you have already used quotes in your paper. Quotations are a great way to enhance your argument while also driving up a paper’s word count, but don’t add quotes just for the sake of doing so. If you’re short on words, read through your source materials again to see if you’ve missed any valuable quotes. You can also do a little more research to see if there are any other sources you can add to provide the reader with more evidence toward your argument. Longer quotes aren’t necessarily better, but if you’re really in a bind, you might want to lengthen some of the quotes that are already included.

Tip #5: Review Your Outline

Did you make an outline to plan the essay when you first started? Go back through that initial outline and make sure you’ve hit all of your intended points. It’s possible that you’ve left out an important piece of your argument that would both increase page count and make for a better essay.

Tip #6: Include More Transitional Phrases

Graders often look for traditional words linking sentences to each other, like “therefore,” “even though”, and “on the other hand.” Read through your essay and make sure the sentences flow smoothly into each other. If they don’t, go back and add in transitional phrases like the ones listed above. Your writing will be easier to read, and you’ll get closer to the minimum page requirement in the process.

Tip #7: Read Your Paper Out Loud

This might sound like a silly tip, but when you read your paper out loud, you become increasingly aware of any grammatical or syntactical issues. When you rephrase sentences to fix these, you might end up increasing the paper length a bit. In the process of reading out loud, you also might realize that you didn’t include sufficient details within a particular paragraph. If that’s the case, go back in and add more to increase length.

Tip #8: Take a Break From Your Essay

You’ve probably been staring at your computer screen for hours, hoping words will magically pop into your head. Take a break. Eat a snack, go for a walk, or talk to a friend on the phone. You’ll come back to the essay with a fresh perspective after some time away, and you might have new ideas after you’ve had time away from your paper.

Tip #9: Ask Your Instructor for Help

Most teachers, teaching assistants, and professors are willing to look over papers for students before the final submission date. If there is still time, ask if you can make an appointment to go over your paper or head over to office hours. Your instructor might offer tips on how to better answer the prompt, and this in turn may also increase the word count of the paper.

Tip #10: Use multiple examples to back up your argument

If you’ve only used one source or anecdote to explain a given point, find a second source to provide additional evidence for the reader. This method will help drive up a paper’s word count while also providing further support for your argument.

Although hitting a minimum page count can sometimes be challenging, you can do it the smart way by increasing the information you provide to the reader—there’s no reason to resort to tricks like increasing line spacing or font size. If you’re really in a bind at the last minute, you might want to break up some of your paragraphs. This increases length while also making text more manageable for a reader. But after going through the tips on this list, your paper should be adequate in length without you having to even consider spacing.

21 tricks to make an essay longer

When you're writing a school paper after researching and typing for what feels like ages, but you still haven't reached your teacher's required page count, it's normal to feel frustrated. Maybe you get a little creative and play Microsoft Word gymnastics with different fonts and spacing, or become super expressive with your descriptions. There's also a chance you missed something on the assignment rubric, or overlooked the opportunity to include more quotes from trusted sources. You might even be able to load up on a few more examples for your argument, easily boosting the word count with additional research. Still a couple pages behind the limit? Don't worry. Below, we have over 20 tips to help you hit that page requirement.

1. Make sure you included everything on the rubric. If you forgot a whole section focusing on the counter argument, that could be the reason why your paper is a couple pages shorter than needed.

2. Load up on transitional phrases. Your paper isn't long enough, therefore it may be necessary to add some transitional phrases because they take up space. On the other hand , this could make your paper really wordy, however , it may be necessary. See what I did there?

3. Spell out your numbers. There are four editorial styles — AP, APA, MLA, and Chicago. Each one has a different rule for spelling out numbers, which can work out in your favor. For instance, in APA, you write out all numbers under 10. So a one-character "7" becomes a five-character "seven." In MLA, you spell out all numbers at the beginning of a sentence, and all simple numbers (those that are one or two words). Make sure to check the assignment rubric to see what style your paper should be written in!

4. Ditch the contractions. Honestly, you probably should not even be using contractions in a formal essay, so if you are filling up your paper with "don't," "won't," and "can't," switch them out for "do not," "will not," and "cannot."

5. Use numerous examples. Make sure to do extensive research on your essay topic and come up with at least 2-3 examples for every argument presented. One example might seem like enough, but adding a couple more points improves your paper and boosts its word count.

6. Add quotes. Including quotes, whether they be from a book, news article, or trusted source, helps strengthen and validate the point you're making in a paper. But you can't just drop a quotation without context. Introducing, writing out, and properly unpacking a quote can add value — and length — to your essay.

7. Start getting really descriptive about everything. How illustrative can you get about the evolution of electricity, you ask? Well, the answer is: Very. The howling wind gushed passed Benjamin Franklin at 30 miles per hour on that cold, rainy night, pulling the string of his kite taught as it fought to stay in the sky and sent his grey hair flying up in the sky like silvery wisps.

8. Try to make your header longer. If possible, of course. Some teachers clearly state what information needs to be included in the header. But if there's no guideline, add what you can within reason — I'm not sure your teacher is going to appreciate your TikTok or Insta handle listed on the page.

9. Have someone proofread. Getting another pair of eyes to read your paper might reveal some areas in need of work. Maybe you need to elaborate a bit more on a certain argument, or include a quote to strengthen an example.

10. Revisit your introduction paragraph. Sometimes, an introduction is easiest to write after the paper has been written. Having already presented and thoroughly discussed the argument in the essay's body paragraphs, you have a more concrete understanding of what direction the paper takes. There might be some information or ideas you can add into the intro, to better set up the paper's points.

11. Make your spacing larger. Your teacher probably won't be able to tell the difference between double spacing and 2.5 spacing. *fingers crossed*

12 . While you're at it, expand the spacing between the characters. Yes, I'm talking between each and every letter.

13. Raise the font size from 12pt to 12.5pt. Nobody has to know!

14. Make all periods and commas 14pt. It sounds tedious, but simply command-f and search for the period, that way you can change all of them at once.

15. Put extra space around your (super long and bolded) title. It needs some space to shine and breathe, obvs.

16. Change the font. You can't get too crazy or else your teacher will call you out, so you stick with something super similar to Times New Roman, but slightly bigger, like Bookman Old Style. However some teachers specify a certain font in the paper's assignment requirements — in the case, don't try to switch things up.

17. Reverse outline. After you've finished penning your essay, read it through and write an outline on what you have written so far. This strategy can reveal some paragraphs in need of further development. If you notice one super long paragraph, try breaking the ideas down into separate paragraphs. This might bump the page count up a bit, and give you the opportunity to include a few more transition sentences.

18. Make your margins bigger. You have to be careful about the left and right margins, and the top can be tricky. But the bottom margin, you can practically make it as big as you want. And then you can...

19. Add a fancy footer with page numbers. Obviously (hopefully), your teacher will appreciate your attention to detail and presentation.

20. Add a header with the title of your paper to every single page. Just in case your teacher forgets what your paper is about. You only want to help.

21. Make a separate cover page. Technically, the rubric didn't say it couldn't count as page one.

Using TikTok for Your Academic Papers? Make Sure to Consult Other Sources

Information on TikTok is more interactive than what you find from a Google search. But ensuring the accuracy of that information is crucial to using TikTok to support your studies.

Two international students browsing TikTok together

Currently, more than 50% of four-year college students in the United States use TikTok videos for help with their homework. Students responding to the Intelligent.com survey noted they use TikTok mostly for help with math, English, and art (compared to other subjects). More than 34% of the survey’s respondents said they also used the platform to help complete their college application essays .

TikTok has become the go-to search engine for Gen Z. The content is interactive and, as a result, often more engaging than traditional web articles. For many students, this makes what they learn on TikTok stick more than, say, reading from a textbook with outdated stock images.

However, while there is space for TikTok in academia, it should not be the only source — or even the first source — you turn to for research. Here are some tips on how to use TikTok for academics in ways that support (instead of skewing) your learning.

Viral TikTok Videos as One Part of the Research Process

Like Wikipedia, TikTok makes it easier to find information. But while Wikipedia articles often cite sources, TikTok creators are not in the habit of including references.

That means it is on you to fact-check the information you find on TikTok to ensure its accuracy. This can be tricky, as TikTok is designed to keep you consuming content on the platform. You need to leave TikTok and consult other sources — a key part of the research process.

Viral TikTok videos can certainly be one part of your research process. For example, you may use TikTok as your first step in the process to get more information about a particular topic. Watching videos on TikTok may give you context for which additional questions to ask and the information you need to fact-check via other means, whether that is using a traditional search engine and consulting articles on Google or visiting the library.

The number of likes or views on a video or the number of followers a creator has is not an indicator of trustworthiness. Misinformation and disinformation are rampant across social media, including TikTok. Part of your job as a student is to gain the skills needed to analyze a source and verify information with other sources.

You also need to know what your professors expect and understand your university’s policies.  There continue to be privacy concerns around the use of the app within the United States. In fact, Dr. Casey Fiesler, an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Boulder, has discussed the topic on her TikTok channel.

Some universities, including Auburn University and the University of Mississippi, among others, have banned access to the app on their networks. You can still, of course, access the app on campus, but not via on-campus Wi-Fi.

Expanding Your TikTok Videos Search

The TikTok algorithm is wildly effective — if you like being shown more of the same type of content that you want to see. Videos are curated to your interests and, very quickly, it knows exactly what you like.

While that makes for a seemingly great user experience, it also means you are only seeing the world through a very small frame. Take a step back, and there is an entire world you are missing. 

While the TikTok creator community is diverse, it does not mean that the videos you are served are diverse.

Scott Helfgott, vice president of academic affairs at Shorelight, recommends searching for opposing views to see what comes up. There are multiple perspectives to any event, and Helfgott encourages students to gather as many perspectives as they can.

This ensures that you are exposed to different cultures, perspectives, and experiences you might not see if you do not break out of the algorithm and what the algorithm is programmed to show you.

“You cannot rely on one TikTok video as a source of truth,” he says. “The video appears on your page because the algorithm knows you want to see specific content based on your history. There is another side of it.”

Understanding TikTok’s limitations and potential pitfalls will help you know when it is appropriate to use TikTok for academic purposes and when it is not. “Do your research before you accept what a person is telling you as truth — you do not know if the source is qualified,” stresses Helfgott. 

According to a recent Intelligent.com survey , 65% of students believe the information on TikTok is “somewhat” accurate, while 17% believe it is “very accurate.”

Knowing whether the information is accurate or not will not come from research on the platform. It requires getting off TikTok and verifying the facts: go to the person’s LinkedIn profile, verify their bio, and confirm that this is a real person who is qualified to speak on the topic. 

When Is it Appropriate to Cite TikTok Videos? 

You may have certain classes where it is appropriate to use and cite TikTok videos as part of your assignment.

Ask your professors whether it is appropriate to use both traditional and new sources. “I have not heard of many professors accepting TikTok in isolation, without another source,” shares Helfgott. “It is up to the professor to decide whether they accept TikTok as a source, and this is evolving all the time.”

Helfgott recommends using TikTok to help develop writing and research skills, but not necessarily citing TikTok videos as a source unless doing so is appropriate for your assignment. “There typically needs to be something that you cite in addition to the TikTok video,” he says.

For example, a marketing course may have you look at how businesses are using TikTok to reach their customers. Are they connecting with their target audience? Are they selling too much in a way that turns their audience off? You can evaluate whether their TikTok advertising efforts are effective or not.

Writing courses, particularly courses like writing for the web or humor writing, may also have you spending time on TikTok for class. Part of the appeal of TikTok — and why some videos do so well — is because it is far more entertaining than content on other mediums. 

Screenwriting and film courses may have you practicing writing scripts for TikTok videos. How can you tell a story in just a few seconds? (The sweet spot for TikTok videos is currently between 15 and 60 seconds .) Can you keep people engaged for a 10-minute story (the longest length currently allowed on TikTok)?

Even when it is appropriate to use TikTok videos for research, Helfgott stresses the importance of fact-checking. He points out that as artificial intelligence continues to improve, almost everything can be fake. Helfgott mentioned a video that combined footage of US President Biden with a completely fake speech that he never made. The video matched the speech to his mouth movements in a way that was hard to tell whether it was fake.

“With any research, including TikTok, you need to go to a lot of sources,” Helfgott explains. “You cannot rely on one individual or one type of source. You need multiple sources, multiple perspectives.”

If you are using TikTok as part of a course, you need to know how to cite the source and give credit to the creator. Both the Modern Language Association (MLA) and American Psychological Association (APA) have updated their style guides to include a format for citing TikTok.

Using TikTok to Support Your Learning

Rather than being a source you cite for classwork, TikTok instead can be a great way to supplement your learning. It combines visuals, audio, and text all in one place. And you may even find your professors are sharing content on the platform, too!

You can find videos on how to manage your time, how to write different types of essays, how to write a thesis statement, and more. It can be a great way to refresh what you learned in class. There are also videos that dig into specific math problems and English-language nuances.

For example, Andrea Holm has a master’s in technology in education and has spent years as an English teacher and English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher. Her videos offer bite-sized tips on one specific element of the English language, such as explaining the word “the” and how to use it.

For math, there are channels like Free GCSE Maths Teacher that break down algebra problems and other math concepts into quick videos, such as solving algebraic fractions . Watching how a problem is broken down step-by-step can be a great way to reinforce math concepts you are learning in the classroom.

There are even celebrity academics on TikTok, like Neil deGrasse Tyson who explains concepts like energy and how stars are born on his channel.

Helfgott also points out that you can use TikTok to find out about certain classes and majors, too. For example, you can search things like “What does a data analytics major do” and find videos on data analytics. You can also use it to find opportunities for things like summer internships or top firms for internships in a particular location. 

When to Move from TikTok to In-Person Support

While TikTok can help offer quick tips that help you improve study habits, time management, and productivity, you can also receive that same support in person. 

In-person support gives you a deeper, more comprehensive experience for improving study habits or getting the academic support you need. Plus, programs are tailored to your specific needs so you can ensure you are getting the right support. 

Helfgott urges students to take advantage of professors’ office hours. Office hours are designed to give you answers to questions or additional help, whether you run out of time in class or feel more comfortable talking with your professor one-on-one.

Similarly, Stanford professor Tom Mullaney, who posts on TikTok as firstgenprofessor , regularly shares videos about navigating college courses and campus life overall — reinforcing the idea that while it’s great to begin on screen, nothing compares to in-person connections. 

On TikTok, you can certainly find tons of videos on topics like resume writing and elevator pitches. That is a great way to get information before you take a first pass at writing your own resume, cover letter , and more. But you can also get one-on-one support on these materials. Experts can review your resume, help you with interview practice questions, and offer networking tips so that you are putting your best foot forward. (Shorelight’s career development services do just that, with resume and interview preparation help, assistance with internship and job searches, and more.)

Advisors can also help you navigate course selection and connect you with on-campus resources that can further support you. For example, Shorelight’s Accelerator programs offer both academic support and career development services . You can get English-language support , along with tutoring and mentoring. 

Whichever university you decide to attend in the US will also have tutoring centers for writing, math, and languages. These centers can give you the one-on-one support you need from both experts and peer mentors who can help you review specific math problems or work with you on key elements of essay writing , for example.

Career centers are another great resource. Here, you can have confidence in the counselors’ credentials, Helfgott points out. These professionals have a master’s degree and are qualified to support your career search. “You can interact with them personally and build a relationship,” says Helfgott. “That is not going to happen when you are watching three- to five-minute videos from a stranger who may be unqualified to give advice.”

The advantage of working with experts on campus is that the university has vetted the person who is working with you.

Lastly, Helfgott offers one additional word of caution: “You may start on TikTok for academic reasons, but then you might go down a rabbit hole of non-academic content a few minutes later.” Set a timer for yourself so, if you find yourself watching cat videos, you can get back on track.

Shorelight can help you succeed in your US university classes >

How to Make Longer TikToks: 6 Tips to Nail the New Max Video Length

Two women look at phone screen with orange sunglasses on

@noriharewood

for Airbabble

TikTok played an undeniably colossal role in the rise in popularity of short form videos, and forcing Creators to stick to a short time limit really drove creativity. But now, TikTok has changed its maximum video length from 3 minutes to a whopping 10 whole minutes.

Some people have pushed back against the change, arguing that 10-minute videos belong on YouTube, but we think it’s a great opportunity for Creators to mix up their content on TikTok and start branching out from short, snappy videos to longer, more thought out content.

How to make longer TikToks

Make sure you have access to the new feature.

• Open the TikTok app on your phone

• Click the + sign at the bottom of the screen to open the camera

• Above the record button, you should be able to swipe across the different time limits to see if you have the 10-minute option.

If you don’t see it, update your app via the App Store to make sure you’ve got the latest version. Still not there? Don’t worry! The feature is being rolled out in phases, so not everyone has access just yet — but it’ll hit your account soon.

how-to-make-longer-tiktoks-1

Start putting together your video

It works just like the shorter video length you’re used to, but you’ve obviously got more time to work with. You can record a total length of 10 minutes directly in the app, starting and stopping as needed. Or upload multiple video clips and images from your camera roll if you’ve pre-recorded your content.

Find inspo: Here’s 6 ideas for making long-form TikTok content

Yes, 10 minutes may seem like a long time for a TikTok video. Some of you might even remember when TikToks were limited to 15 seconds! But the social platform is all about creativity and experimentation, and some Creators are really using this new 10-minute length to their advantage. Here’s how:

Everyone loves a good storytime video. In the past, TikTok storytimes had to be condensed into a quick 60 seconds or split into multiple parts. 

The ability to upload a single 10-minute video is revolutionising the storytime format, especially for Creators who aim to engage. Rather than rushing through a story or editing in lots of cuts, Creators can now tell their stories in a format we’re more used to seeing on YouTube. We’re talking dramatic pauses, lots of backstories, and building suspense. The key is to make sure that the entire 10 minutes is engaging. Give viewers a reason to keep watching until the end.

@jessicavanel I gotta say... Making Magic is a lot of fun! #wholesome #disney #disneyworld ♬ original sound - Jessica V.

Q&A videos are an excellent way for your followers to get to know you a bit better. It’s quite common to see Q&A’s on Instagram, usually with the Question sticker on a Story. This access to 10-minute TikTok videos will allow Creators to do in-depth Q&A videos on TikTok too! 

Tell your followers to submit questions in the comment section of another video, then pick the ones you want to answer, settle in, and start filming! Though some Creators love using the Live feature on TikTok to do Q&A sessions, everyone can see the comments as they come in — making it harder to dodge anything you don’t want to answer. 

Daily vlogs have always been en vogue. You can't go wrong with a daily vlog — from 20-minute long YouTube videos to 15-second montages on Reels. 

TikTok’s 10-minute feature is the perfect mid-way point between Reels and a YouTube video. Your TikToks can be less polished than YouTube, while you can definitely get a bit deeper than you could with a Reel.

Film your day as you go along, edit it together in the evening, and post it to TikTok that night. It’s a great way to show more of the behind-the-scenes of your life (an already huge trend on TikTok).

@orendaduong just another wednesday existing 😌 #dailyvlog #minivlog #vlog #nyc #morningroutine ♬ original sound - ASTN

DIY videos have been big on TikTok since the app’s inception, and they really boomed in popularity during COVID lockdowns. From tie-dye shirts and punch needle rugs to furniture upholstery and room makeovers, the DIY opportunities are endless. And having 10 minutes of video means you can go into more detail about each step of the DIY process.

Mukbangs — where Creators eat a meal while talking directly to the camera — had a real heyday a few years back. Though the trend was solely found on YouTube, Creators now have a chance to bring it back with 10-minute TikTok videos. 

It’s a great way to update your followers on anything going on in your life — relationship breakups, career wins, travel stories — in a more casual way than a Q&A.

Morning routine

We seem to be fascinated with watching other peoples’ morning routines. YouTube, Insta, and TikTok are all full of videos montaging Creators’ skincare, breakfast, gym routine, makeup, and more. 

A 10-minute morning routine video is a great way to go more in-depth into what you’re doing, whether it’s sharing a pancake recipe, explaining your favourite skincare products, or even responding to some journal prompts. Seeing an entire morning routine in real-time is an innovative way to engage your followers.

Remember: you don't have to make a 10-minute video just because you can

Don’t get caught up in the excitement and churn out mediocre content for the sake of it. Make sure you’re creating something worthwhile, that you’re proud of and that your audience will want to see. 

Don’t be afraid to experiment, but remember that your 10-minute videos need to work in tandem with the rest of your content, and most of all match your style.

TikTok: Exploring the Pros and Cons of a Social Media Phenomenon

Introduction: As an avid user and researcher of social media platforms, I have found TikTok to be an intriguing and controversial subject. TikTok has taken the world by storm, captivating millions with its short-form videos and creative content. In this essay, I will delve into the pros and cons of TikTok, examining its impact on individuals, society, and various aspects of our lives.

Pros of TikTok:

  • Creative Outlet: TikTok provides a unique platform for self-expression and creativity. Users can unleash their artistic talents by creating and sharing short videos incorporating music, dance, comedy, and more. It allows individuals to explore their interests, showcase their skills, and engage with a global audience, fostering a sense of empowerment.
  • Entertainment and Inspiration: TikTok’s algorithmic feed presents users with an endless stream of diverse and entertaining content. From hilarious skits to motivational messages, TikTok offers a range of videos that can brighten one’s day, boost morale, or serve as a source of inspiration. It has become a platform for content creators to bring joy and laughter to millions worldwide.
  • Community Building: TikTok’s interactive nature facilitates the formation of online communities around shared interests, challenges, or causes. Users can connect with like-minded individuals, participate in trending challenges, and support various social causes. This sense of belonging can foster camaraderie, support, and positive engagement among users.
  • Entrepreneurial Opportunities: TikTok has provided a platform for aspiring content creators to gain visibility and launch their careers. Through partnerships, brand collaborations, and monetization features, talented individuals have the potential to turn their passion for creating TikTok content into a sustainable income stream. It has opened doors for new influencers and enabled diverse voices to find an audience.

Cons of TikTok:

  • Privacy and Data Concerns: TikTok’s ownership by the Chinese company ByteDance has raised concerns over data privacy and security. There have been allegations of data collection, censorship, and potential risks of data misuse. While TikTok has taken steps to address these concerns, the debate surrounding data privacy remains a valid point of contention.
  • Cyberbullying and Online Harassment: Like any social media platform, TikTok is not immune to instances of cyberbullying and online harassment. The ease of anonymous commenting and the viral nature of content can lead to negative experiences for users. The platform must continue to enhance its moderation policies and empower users to report and block abusive behavior.
  • Content Quality and Manipulation: With millions of videos being uploaded daily, TikTok’s content landscape can be overwhelming and lacking in quality control. Users are exposed to a wide range of content, varying in relevance, accuracy, and ethical standards. Additionally, the algorithmic recommendation system may inadvertently promote misleading or harmful content, necessitating ongoing efforts to improve content moderation and fact-checking processes.
  • Time Consumption and Addiction: TikTok’s addictive nature can lead to excessive screen time and reduced productivity, particularly among younger users. The platform’s infinite scroll design and engaging content make it easy to get lost in an endless loop of videos. This addictive behavior can negatively impact mental health, sleep patterns, and daily routines if not managed responsibly.

Conclusion:

TikTok’s meteoric rise has brought both positive and negative consequences. It offers a creative outlet, entertainment, community building, and entrepreneurial opportunities to its users. However, concerns related to privacy, cyberbullying, content quality, and addiction persist. As with any powerful tool, responsible usage and proactive measures are vital to harness its potential while mitigating the associated risks. TikTok’s journey towards improvement must continue by prioritizing user safety, fostering authenticity, and refining content moderation processes.

The TikTok Trend Phenomenon: Unpacking its Impact on Culture and Society

Introduction

In the ever-evolving landscape of social media, TikTok has emerged as a formidable platform that has redefined the way we consume and produce content. With its explosive growth since its launch in 2016, TikTok has become a global sensation, captivating users across generations. This essay explores the TikTok trend phenomenon, delving into its cultural and societal impact, its rise to prominence, and its influence on creativity, identity, and global trends.

The TikTok Revolution: A Brief History

Birth of a Viral Giant

TikTok, originally known as Douyin in China, was developed by Zhang Yiming’s company, ByteDance. The app was first introduced to the international market in September 2016 under the name TikTok. Its defining feature was the short-form video format, which allowed users to create and share 15 to 60-second video clips. What set TikTok apart from its predecessors was its focus on user-generated content and its powerful algorithm that tailored content recommendations to individual users.

Global Domination

TikTok quickly gained popularity in countries like India, the United States, and Indonesia, and it was the most downloaded app globally in 2020. Its rapid ascent was attributed to its user-friendly interface, addictive algorithm, and the ability to easily create and share creative content. It was no longer just a platform for Generation Z; people of all ages found themselves captivated by TikTok’s content.

The Cultural Impact of TikTok Trends

The New Dance Floor: TikTok’s Dance Trends

One of the defining features of TikTok is its role in popularizing dance trends. Short, catchy dances became a cultural phenomenon on the platform, with users worldwide attempting to master the latest moves. For instance, the “Renegade” dance created by Jalaiah Harmon became a sensation on TikTok, catapulting her to internet stardom. This illustrates how TikTok democratizes fame, allowing talented individuals to gain recognition on a global scale.

Music and TikTok: A Symbiotic Relationship

TikTok has also reshaped the music industry. Songs that go viral on the platform often become chart-toppers. Artists like Lil Nas X and Doja Cat owe much of their success to TikTok, where their songs “Old Town Road” and “Say So” gained immense popularity through user-generated dance challenges and lip-syncing videos. This symbiotic relationship between TikTok and the music industry has blurred the lines between artist and audience, making music more participatory.

Social Activism on TikTok

TikTok has not only been a platform for entertainment but also for social activism. The Black Lives Matter movement, climate activism, and mental health awareness campaigns have found a home on TikTok. Users use the platform to share informative videos, personal stories, and calls to action, amplifying important social issues. TikTok has proven that it can be a powerful tool for raising awareness and mobilizing people for positive change.

Identity and Self-expression on TikTok

The TikTok Persona: Exploring Identity

TikTok allows users to explore and express their identities in unique ways. With various filters, effects, and soundtracks at their disposal, users can experiment with different personas and styles. This freedom has fostered an environment where people can embrace their true selves, experiment with gender expression, and challenge traditional norms of beauty and appearance.

Empowering Marginalized Voices

TikTok has also given a voice to marginalized communities. LGBTQ+ individuals, for example, have found acceptance and support on the platform, sharing their stories and experiences. TikTok’s algorithm often showcases content that resonates with users, making it easier for marginalized voices to reach a wider audience.

The Dark Side of TikTok Trends

Privacy Concerns

While TikTok has brought numerous positive changes to the social media landscape, it has not been without controversy. One of the major concerns revolves around privacy and data security. TikTok’s ownership by a Chinese company raised suspicions about potential data breaches and government surveillance. These concerns led to bans and scrutiny in several countries, including India and the United States.

Cyberbullying and Misinformation

As with any social media platform, TikTok has its share of cyberbullying and misinformation. The anonymity afforded to users can sometimes lead to hurtful comments and harassment. Additionally, the viral nature of trends can also facilitate the spread of misinformation and fake news. TikTok’s algorithmic recommendations may inadvertently expose users to harmful content.

The Future of TikTok Trends

Monetization and Influencer Culture

As TikTok continues to grow, it has become a lucrative platform for influencers and content creators. Brands are increasingly turning to TikTok to promote their products, and influencers are capitalizing on their popularity by collaborating with businesses. The rise of TikTok as an advertising and marketing platform has led to discussions about the commercialization of creativity and authenticity.

Regulation and Oversight

Governments and regulatory bodies are grappling with how to manage TikTok’s influence and ensure data security. The platform’s potential to shape public opinion and influence politics has raised concerns about misinformation and foreign interference. The future may see increased oversight and regulation of TikTok to address these concerns.

TikTok, with its viral trends, creative content, and powerful algorithm, has undeniably left a significant mark on culture and society. It has redefined the way we create and consume content, reshaped the music industry, and given marginalized voices a platform to be heard. However, it also faces challenges related to privacy, misinformation, and the commercialization of creativity.

The TikTok trend phenomenon is a testament to the ever-evolving nature of social media, and its future evolution will continue to shape our digital landscape. As users and regulators grapple with its impact, it is clear that TikTok has become much more than just an app; it is a cultural force with far-reaching consequences. Whether these consequences are predominantly positive or negative will depend on how we navigate the ever-changing TikTok landscape in the years to come.

How to make a slideshow on TikTok: 6 easy steps

how to make your essay look longer tiktok

TikTok isn’t just for viral short-form videos. With TikTok slideshows, you can give still photos the TikTok treatment, too. 

You can create a slideshow with silly captions and quirky emojis to walk your audience through a milestone, process, or entire day, moment by moment. 

If you’re new to the TikTok slideshow feature, this simple 6-step guide will show you how to make a slideshow on TikTok that will make people stop and swipe.

3 benefits of slideshows on TikTok

Short videos may be the hottest thing on TikTok, but slideshows are still thriving on the platform. Here’s why.

Easy to produce

Unlike photos or videos, which require the right footage and editing chops, you don’t need advanced tech skills to make slideshows. Just pull multiple images or short clips together, customize them with captions, music, and other effects, and you’ll have a TikTok slideshow in minutes. 

For a simple example, Patrick Kelly uses a day-in-the-life TikTok slideshow to describe his morning routine and his DC commute.  

Variety of use cases

Whether you want to showcase a process, promote different products, or recap your favorite travels, TikTok slideshows are a versatile format for showing off moments captured in still photos. 

You can create captivating photo slideshows for your audience that bring your vision to life, no matter your industry. UK streetwear brand 8azmo , for example, created a TikTok slideshow to showcase vintage football clothes that appeal to its target audience. 

High impact

TikTok slideshows give creators an inventive alternative to video to tell stories and connect with their audiences. 

They’re an expansive tool that lets you tell longer stories than you’d find in a single photo. Viewers can easily swipe through the slideshow at their own pace as though they’re flipping through a digital photo album. That extra time spent with your content forges a stronger bond between you and your audience.

How to make a TikTok slideshow in 6 easy steps

It’s clear a slideshow video is a fun way to entertain TikTok users. If you want to start on yours, you’ll need the TikTok app, a TikTok account, and some high-quality photos. Then, follow the tutorial below with the app’s native slideshow maker. 

1. Open the app

Download and install the TikTok app from the Apple App Store for iOS devices (iPhone/iPad) or Google Play Store if you’re using an Android phone or tablet. 

Then, tap on the TikTok icon to launch the app.

2. Tap the “+” button

Next, tap the + (plus sign) at the bottom of the screen to access TikTok’s in-app video editor.

3. Select the "Templates" option

Then, select Templates at the bottom of the screen. 

4. Choose a template that you like

Select your preferred template from the available options. 

Note: The template you pick should not only be aesthetically pleasing but should accommodate all the photos you want to add to your slideshow. Otherwise, you may have to break up your slideshow into multiple segments.

5. Tap the "Upload photos" button

Next, tap the red Upload photos to select photos from your camera roll to use in your slideshow.

Select all the photos placing them in the order you want them to appear in the slideshow.

6. Customize your slideshow

Like with a TikTok video, you can add filters, stickers, music, voiceovers, and other effects to your TikTok slideshow. 

TikTok templates also come with preselected songs, which will play automatically. If you don’t like the sound or music, tap Add sound at the top of the screen to use one that fits your needs.

Select Next .

Add a caption and hashtags, tag people, and manage your post’s viewing and sharing settings. You can also tap the image thumbnail in the right corner of the screen to select a cover for your TikTok slideshow.

Then select the red Post button to publish your photo slideshow on TikTok. 

Each photo or video clip in the slideshow will display for a few seconds in a smooth sequence.

TikTok slideshows are ideal for making presentation videos for your audience. They’re especially helpful for beginners who don’t know how to work complex video editing tools and customization features.

This time limit increase gives users more flexibility regarding beauty tutorials, educational content, instructional content,  cooking demos, comic sketches, and more.

It’s also a smart move in terms of remaining relevant. While TikTok has made a name for itself as a short-form video platform , it's also aware of the increased direct monetization potential on offer in other apps.

While a fair few sources state that this option may not currently be available to everyone and is still being rolled out, we’re a little skeptical as to whether or not TikTok has decided to continue with the plan.

There’s not much in the way of recent news so all we can do is stick around and see what happens!

If you don’t have the option to post 10-minute TikToks, don’t worry! Most creators have found a workaround by creating their videos in parts or episodes and encouraging viewers to follow them for part 2 or more of the video series.

Creating a longer TikTok video is much the same as creating a shorter-length video, but now you’ve got more time to play with it. Let’s check out some of the ways you can utilize all those additional minutes!

Tell A Story

No matter the length of your videos, they should always tell a story. This means a clear beginning, middle, and end .

From reupholstering your furniture to garden makeovers, creating tie-dye shirts, and fixing up your bedroom, the possibilities for DIY videos on TikTok are endless!

Get Ready With Me

The popular GRWM hashtag is a great trend to hop onto, especially now that you have more time to showcase your routine.

This could take the form of your morning routine and getting ready for work or perhaps how you prep and primp for a big night out. You could even film yourself getting ready to go to the gym.

Q&A Sessions

If you’re building quite a nice following, a Q&A video is a great way to share a bit more about yourself.

We’ve seen a lot of Q&A’s on Instagram but now that you have access to more time on TikTok, ask your followers to submit questions and then film a video with the questions displayed in text on your screen.

These are just some ideas but really there are endless possibilities. Have fun and don’t be afraid to experiment with the content of these longer videos.

What Is The Best Length For A TikTok?

According to research, the sweet spot is somewhere between 9 - 15 seconds . While it’s great to have a 10-minute video option remember that brevity and easy-to-consume content always wins engagement on TikTok.

What Video File Size and Format Is Supported By TikTok?

The file size is 72MB for Android and 287.6MB for iOS while the best video formats for TikTok include .MP4 and .MOV .

Do Longer Videos On TikTok Get More Views?

There doesn’t seem to be much proof that longer TikTok videos get more views. Video popularity is more about the content and how engaging it is than how long the video is.

However, TikTok is known for its short, snackable videos and longer TikToks might not keep people engaged all the way through.

The best strategy is to test out different video lengths and see what works best for your brand.

Being able to post longer TikTok videos means being able to really dig into the content you want to post. However, don’t just post longer videos because you can!

If you can create an engaging story that needs a longer time limit, then go for it, but if your content ideas are more suited to shorter clips, then stick with that.

As mentioned above, improving your chances of going viral on TikTok is more about the quality of the content you are delivering to your audience!

A 500-word essay is about 2 pages long. When using standard 1-inch margins, 12 pt. Arial font and a typical A4 (letter size) page size, a 500-word count will yield roughly 1 page single-spaced or 2 pages double-spaced.

The answer is around 4 single-spaced pages and 8 double-spaced pages. Your word processing software and settings may produce slightly different page counts, but you may expect similar results if you use standard page margins and a 12-point Arial or Times New Roman font.

The average writer will spend roughly 1.7 hours typing on a keyboard and 3.3 hours writing 8 pages. If the topic requires in-depth research, connections, citations, or visuals, as in a blog piece or a high school essay, the length can increase to 13.3 hours.

With spaces included in the character count, 2,000 characters equal between 290 and 500 words. If spaces are excluded from the character count, 2,000 characters correspond to between 330 and 670 words.

The average writer will spend roughly 1.3 hours working on a keyboard and 2.5 hours penning 3,000 words. If the topic requires in-depth research, connections, citations, or visuals, as in a blog piece or a high school essay, the length can increase to 10 hours.

Writing daily is the first and most important skill you’ll need to write 5000 Words a Day. However, if you’re not used to writing every day, you won’t be able to write 5000 words per day. As a result, the first and most crucial habit you should acquire is everyday writing.

1,400 words equal 2.8 single-spaced pages or 5.6 double-spaced pages. High school and college essays, short blog posts, and news pieces are all examples of documents with 1,400 words.

Teen Subcultures Are Fading. Pity the Poor Kids.

Gorgeous, abundant visuals are just pale imitations of what young people used to have: an actual scene.

A photo illustration collage of a necklace that reads “Love,” a girl talking on a bright pink telephone, bright pink pool floaties, a coffee drink and white shoes.

By Mireille Silcoff

A few weeks ago, my 12-year-old daughter showed me a video created by a Dallas clothing store called Dear Hannah Prep, depicting a girl’s first time visiting “the preppiest boutique in Texas.” “How excited are you?” an off-camera voice asks. “I’m so excited!” the girl says. Then she opens the door, gasps and declares, “It’s so preppy in here!”

That this moment had become a meme, spawning an array of other videos riffing on the original (we see the girl enter a derelict classroom or padded cell and swoon, each time, that it’s “so preppy in here”) was far less confusing to me than the fact that people were calling this store — an all-white box exploding with smiley-face sweatshirts, tie-dyed fuzzy bathrobes and a generally berserk neon beachiness — preppy.

“That,” I told my daughter, “is not preppy.” I did not have much hope of persuading her that millions of teenagers on TikTok were wrong and her 50-year-old mother — who does, in fact, own a copy of Lisa Birnbach’s 1980 “The Official Preppy Handbook” — was right, but it seemed worth trying. I looked around her room, and for lack of any stray loafers or rumpled chinos to use as examples, I touched the top of an antique oak dresser that was once her grandmother’s. “ This is preppy,” I said. She rolled her eyes: “Mom, that dresser is super cottagecore, and that is not my aesthetic at all.”

My daughter’s “preppy” is not my idea of preppy — the prep of actual New England prep schools, of frayed Oxford cloth and WASPy noblesse oblige. Nor is it the aspirational varsity style of Tommy Hilfiger and 1990s rappers in rugby shirts, or even J. Crew’s self-conscious 2010s update on old-money style. Those meanings haven’t vanished; a great deal has been written about them lately, much of it connected to Avery Trufelman’s erudite series “American Ivy,” released on her podcast in 2022. But those iterations are now known, in the TikTok world, as “old preppy.” The new sort fills its Pinterest pages with something else: colorful Stanley mugs, tiered pink micro-minis, bulbed makeup mirrors and Brazilian Bum Bum Creams. Part of what makes it hard to describe is that it is not rooted in any specific culture; it seems to be largely about being fun and a girl and buying things packaged with a bright color on a white background . There is no deep ethos to it, no shared experience other than posting videos of shopping hauls or makeup routines — pastimes usually engaged in alone, in your bedroom.

This is not just true of “preppy.” If you are a teenager or have exposure to teenagers, what I am about to write is something you probably know already. Subcultures in general — once the poles of style and art and politics and music around which wound so many ribbons of teenage meaning — have largely collapsed.

What teenagers today are offered instead is a hyperactive landscape of so-called aesthetics — thousands of them, including everything from the infamous cottagecore to, these days, prep. These are more like cultural atmospheres, performed mainly online, with names and looks and hashtags, an easy visual pablum. They come and go and blend and break apart like clouds in the wind, many within weeks of appearing. They have much content but little context — a lot to look at but a very thin relationship to any “real life” anything, like behaviors or gathering places. On one end, even a distinctly in-the-world subculture (like, say, grunge) can be reduced to a vibe packet of anodyne references (cigarettes, grimy things); on the other, a mere mood tone can be elevated to something offered as lifestyle (there are girls who enjoy the color red and a certain Euro effortlessness, and they are called Tomato Girls, while others who prefer white are called Vanilla Girls ). If two dozen things on a Pinterest page feel as if they go together, chances are someone, even just as a lark or experiment, is calling it an aesthetic.

For proof, you need only log on to Aesthetics Wiki, a wonderfully encyclopedic website for online style tribes. Here you will find not only large categories like emo, Y2K, VSCO, academia or the perennial goth but also categories so specific that their nicheness begins feeling like an Escher staircase of references. The roughly 200 aesthetics found under the randomly chosen letter M contain some that will be legible to many (Memphis rap, Mod), some that involve a kind of style-sensitive hairsplitting (Mallgoth, Messy French It Girl, McBling) and others that are just full-on W.T.F.: Meatcore is for people who appreciate raw meat as a nondietary object, and Monumentality is the appreciation of anything big, like Godzilla, Gothic cathedrals, giant redwoods or asteroids (“many asteroids are fairly large”). It’s hard to imagine a Monumentality meetup because, like so many aesthetics, Monumentality is only referential, its conversation ending right where it begins: Do you like this big thing? Yes, because it is big.

Subcultures have largely collapsed.

As with much of today’s popular culture (say, A.S.M.R. hair-brushing or pimple-popping videos), the level of specificity and intimate itch-scratching here feels a lot like porn — another extension of the internet’s ability to service niche desires. And in terms of their enhancement of human experience, many aesthetics seem to offer about as much as porn does: a fleeting personal pleasure to be had mainly alone.

Yet when I look at the younger people in my life — the teenagers crate-digging through these details, arguing about “dark academia” versus “light academia” or the differences between “goblincore” and “crowcore” — it doesn’t seem to me that they want to negate meaning. It seems as though they are looking, hard, for identity, for validation, for the dignification of their taste. It’s just that they are being presented with these thin cultural planes that barely exist outside their devices.

To me, this is tragic, and I feel annoyed on their behalf. So I will risk sounding like an old raver shaking her cane to note that subcultures, even the vapid ones, used to tie their participants to people and places. Getting into a scene could be work; it required figuring out whom to talk to, or where to go, and maybe hanging awkwardly around a record store or nightclub or street corner until you got scooped up by whatever was happening. But at its deepest, a subculture could allow a given club kid, headbanger or punk to live in a communal container from the moment she woke up to the moment she went to bed. If you were, say, a suburban California skate rat in 1990, skating affected almost everything you did: how you spoke, the way you dressed, the people you hung out with, the places you went, the issues you cared about, the shape of your very body. And while that might not have seemed a promising plan for teenage well-being at the time, by today’s standards of diffuse loneliness and alienation among youth, it looks like a very good recipe indeed — precisely the kind of real-world cultural community that has been replaced by an algorithmic fluidity in which nothing hangs around long enough to grow roots.

Kids are not failing by wanting to be cottagecore or meatcore or this new preppy. It’s the culture available to them that is failing, by no longer being able to connect any of these categories with lived experience or social meaning. Kids, in all their blowzy creativity — the same creativity that invented movements from Romanticism to hippiedom to hip-hop — need more, deserve more. It’s hard to think otherwise when looking at the Aesthetics Wiki entry for Peoplehood, “an aesthetic revolving around common acts of kindness and intimacy that are present in daily life.” It might be time to start thinking of 20th-century parents’ problems as solutions: The youth belong at the rave, at the block party, in the mosh pit, loitering in the park at midnight.

The Rise of TikTok

E.U. regulators opened an investigation into TikTok over potential breaches of online content rules aimed at protecting children, saying the popular social media platform’s “addictive design”  risked exposing young people to harmful content.

Return fraud is a rampant problem  for both shoppers and retailers — and the mishaps often make for viral videos on TikTok.

The Pink Stuff, a home cleaning paste, went from total obscurity to viral sensation — and Walmart staple — thanks to one “cleanfluencer” and her legion of fans .

Have we reached the end of TikTok’s infinite scroll? The app once offered seemingly endless chances to be charmed but in only a few short years, its promise of kismet is evaporating , our critic writes.

The TikTok creator known as “Tunnel Girl” has been documenting her attempt to build an emergency shelter under her home. She is not the only person with an off-the-books tunnel project .

Very few politicians, including the top candidates for president, are on TikTok. Even so, some pundits are calling 2024 the “TikTok election”  because of the ballooning power and influence of the video app on political discourse.

Tiktok’s ‘who tf did i marry’ story, explained.

TikTok’s ‘Who TF Did I Marry’ story has gone viral on the video-sharing app

A lengthy series of TikTok clips titled “Who TF Did I Marry?” has gone extremely viral, narrated by creator Reesa Teesa , who explains the messy ordeal she experienced while married to her ex-husband, who she refers to as “Legion.”

The nickname is no coincidence — in the Bible, “Legion” is the name given to a collection of demons who possessed a man. If even half of what Teesa claims is true, than the name fits; Teesa’s story is peppered with red flags from the very beginning.

Throughout the story, those red flags ignite on fire, and by the end, there’s nothing left but ash; Teesa is very upfront about how she chose to ignore those flags, stating:

“You would have thought I was colorblind, because I ignored all of that.”

Teesa’s story stands out, not just because of the jaw-dropping actions of her ex-husband, but the length of the full story.

TikTok is often blamed for deteriorating attention spans, but Teesa’s 50-part story clocks in at around 5 hours; that’s practically an audiobook, longer than the most self-indulgent YouTube video essay, even longer than the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King .

There’s no visual flair to the story — it’s just Teesa sitting at home or in her car, telling the details of her bizarre ordeal. It goes without saying that she’s a gifted storyteller, with the charisma to carry the tale to the very end.

Each of the TikTok clips have millions of views, suggesting that many watched (or at least listened) to the story in its entirety, and those views aren’t counting the many compilations that have been uploaded on YouTube.

What Are The Highlights Of ‘Who TF Did I Marry?’

I do recommend watching Reesa’s story and its many plot twists in its entirety, but here are the highlights.

The Honeymoon Period

Teesa met Legion in March 2020, and he seemed kind, generous and thoughtful — almost too good to be true. Legion presented himself as a former football player for San Diego State, now a regional manager who had just moved to Georgia from California.

Legion gave the impression that he was wealthy, willing to provide for her, and keen to get married and start a family. Teesa, who is religious, wanted the same. The two moved in together very quickly, partly to weather the storm of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The instability and unpredictability of the pandemic would prove a gift to Legion, a perfect excuse for why certain promises and intentions didn’t come to fruition. It wasn’t a normal time for anyone, least of all Teesa.

During this period, Legion was playing the part of a family man who had a close relationship with his brother, who he spent a great deal of time talking on the phone with. He and Teesa began searching for a house together, with Legion claiming to have been promoted and ready to buy the right property.

While Legion expressed interest in several houses, the purchase never went through, for one reason or another. Legion said he wanted to buy a property for $700,000 cash, but refused to provide proof of the money until the offer was accepted.

Legion took Teesa to shop for expensive cars, and again, never seemed able to buy one. Eventually, she bought herself a car and the two didn’t purchase a house. Again, the red flags were muted by the chaos of the pandemic.

Teesa suffered a miscarriage, which she later saw as a blessing. The two got married at the beginning of 2021, and Legion’s behavior became significantly more controlling. Legion began to criticize what she wore to work, and would become agitated when he called her workplace and heard male voices in the background.

At one point, Legion claims that one of Teesa’s exes visited their house and implies that she was cheating on him. Teesa’s neighbor later confirmed that according to her security camera, no visit took place.

More Red Flags

At this point, Legion’s lies are beginning to unravel; Teesa realizes that there is always something out of Legion’s control that stops him from keeping his promises, or providing proof for his claims.

After seeing that Legion received a message on his phone, Teesa checks it and finds several sexually explicit messages from other women. Legion tries to downplay the messages, and Teesa seeks marriage councilling — at this point, they have only been married for three months.

The two attend marriage counseling through a pastor, who is very concerned about Legion’s behavior. Legion is aggressively defensive during these sessions, and keeps claiming that he has a vast amount of savings in an overseas bank account that he refuses to show proof for.

Months go by, and their rental lease is expiring, so the two begin to look for a house to buy again. The same stalemate occurs, with Legion demanding to make an all-cash offer without providing proof of funds, resulting in more wasted time with realtors.

At this point, Teesa is becoming more cautious and applies for a second job to be more financially dependent.

The application involves a background check for her and husband, which leads to the realization that Legion’s SIN number is different from the one written on their marriage license, and does not align with the state he claims he was born in.

Teesa calls San Diego State and they have no record of Legion attending, which Legion tries to explain by claiming that he attended the school as a “private citizen” and that there would be no record of his attendance.

Downward Spiral

The lies are crumbling, but life keeps moving; now Legion is claiming to suffer from an old football injury and taking pain medications to cope. Legion also claims that his step-daughter has passed away from COVID, and asks Teesa if she could send $2000 to his ex-wife for funeral costs — Teesa agrees.

For obvious reasons, Teesa does a background check on Legion and discovers that he never lived in California; from there, she calls Legion’s ex-wife who tells her, in no uncertain terms, that Legion is a pathological liar, a manipulator, and that his step-daughter is alive and well.

Teesa digs deeper into Legion’s past, and finds that he has lied about practically everything; he has less siblings than he claimed, another ex-wife he failed to mention, and he never attended San Diego State.

Legion has now left his job due to his injury, which Teesa attests was real, even if it wasn’t caused by playing football. Legion claims to be working at Apple, but spends a lot of time off work, in chronic pain.

Teesa then uncovers evidence of infidelity, with Legion apparently having solicited a sex worker and sent her messages thanking her for their time together.

Contrary to what one might expect, Teesa is relieved to discover that Legion was cheating on her, as her religious beliefs made her reluctant to divorce him.

The Beginning Of The End

Teesa finally confronts Legion about his many, many lies, and he aggressively deflects and denies. She throws him out the house and changes the locks.

In a particularly unpleasant plot twist, she discovered that he had been urinating in soda bottles instead of using the bathroom, seemingly almost bedridden by his mysterious injury.

Teesa is then contacted by Legion’s cousin, who informs her that Legion is (shockingly) lying about their separation, claiming that Teesa cheated on him with a police officer. In another plot twist, Legion’s family had no idea they were married, but Legion told several people that he and Teesa had a baby together, following her miscarriage.

Things continued to escalate, as Teesa discovers that Legion had spent an alarming amount of time pretending to talk to his siblings on the phone, and had even introduced her to two “half-brothers” who were not related to him at all.

Legion was estranged from his brother, was missing several siblings which he claimed to have, and had a twin that he never mentioned. Also, Legion had copied many of the achievements from his twin brother’s life (such as the high-paying job) and passed them off as his own.

When Teesa met with Legion to sign the divorce papers, she realized that he has been living in his car. She later finds out that he was working as a forklift operator, not a regional manager, and he certainly wasn’t working for Apple.

Concerned about Legion living in his car, Teesa reached out to as many of his friends and family as she could, only to discover that no one cares what happens to him, because every bridge has been burnt by his lies.

The story just keeps going — Teesa finds out that Legion had a criminal history, having been arrested for trespassing, driving with a suspended license and registration, and even impersonating an officer.

Oh, and there was a warrant out for his arrest.

At this point, Legion is contacting her regularly, under the impression that he is still entitled to live in her home. Finally, he shows up to her house, and Teesa calls the police. They take Legion away, and later, Teesa’s divorce papers cleared.

Teesa wisely decides to move house before Legion is released from prison, and at the end of 2021, he contacts her asking for his missing possessions. Teesa tells him never to contact her again, and the saga is over.

Teesa provides an epilogue at the end of her story, reflecting on the extraordinary lengths Legion went to maintain his lies, and the sadistic pleasure he seemed to take in manipulating her and playing with her expectations.

TikTok Reacts To ‘Who TF Did I Marry?’

On TikTok, users speculated that Teesa’s story might be made into a film — famously, a Twitter thread breaking down a dramatic true story was adapted into the movie Zola .

The comments on Teesa’s TikTok posts are filled with users celebrating her honesty, judging her for believing Legion’s lies, or announcing that they have just started watching the lengthy tale.

However, one can’t go as viral as Teesa did without attracting internet sleuths. Inevitably, TikTok users dug into the details and claimed to uncover Legion’s identity , although it hasn’t been confirmed if they got the right man.

The obsessive TikTokers trying to uncover Legion’s true identity are going against the stated wishes of Teesa, but the story has gotten far too big to control.

The tale is incredibly compelling and dramatic, but it also came right after TikTok’s shift into long-form content ; each of Teesa’s videos are ten minutes long, which is a relatively new feature on the platform.

YouTube embraced YouTube Shorts to compete with TikTok, while X (Twitter) and Instagram followed, leaning into video. TikTok is now boosting longer videos, seemingly to compete with YouTube.

Regardless of what social media brand one prefers, it appears the internet is converging into one massive video-hosting platform.

Whether or not social media has destroyed the ability to concentrate is still debatable, but as Teesa’s saga proves, nothing holds our attention quite like a good bit of gossip.
