Do you want to redirect traffic to YouTube? You can do it through YouTube. The trick is to redirect traffic from one source to another with the videos and automate this process.
Transferring videos from TikTok to YouTube Shorts
Bear in mind that this is blackhat SEO technique or something similar.
A webmaster coded a Python script that:
- Look for videos and links based on keywords
- Can download TikTok videos without their watermark
- Organize them in folders.
- Can add text over the videos.
- Upload the videos to YouTube.
The programmer automatically set the TikTok description to be the title for the YouTube videos and uploaded between 5 to 10 videos per day. Their channel got more than 5 million views and a month didn’t even pass. If you want to achieve the same results, you will have to do the same process but don’t worry, there’s no need to learn Python or any programming language.
What is important to know before starting
YouTube checks for the video language and shows it to the correct audience. So, if you’re looking to promote in other countries/GEOs, there’s no need to create a new account.
The videos will get very low traffic in the first week. Nevertheless, you need to keep uploading at least 5 shorts per day. Bear in mind that you also take videos from reels (Instagram). Google instantly bans accounts for copyright infringement after a few million views, so it might not be a good video to just focus on one of your many channels.
What do you need for the automation?
Firstly, we’re going to check the no-code methods, after that, we will get familiar with tools for programmers and QA engineers.
How to reduce the routine with a manual approach using already-built tools:
- You might use the Easy TikTok extension to download the videos in bulk. The plugin copies links to all videos in the open window after going through your profile. After that, you just need to scroll down your profile and collect the links, then drop them into any file uploader.
- After testing it, if you’re ready to scale, Zennoposter templates for the scheduled video uploads to YouTube might be helpful. It costs around $10, but if you’re persistent enough you can create the scripts yourself.
Along with that, UBT specialists can use automation tools without any code experience:
- Zennoposter is a program used to automate processes that use flowcharts. It records the browser actions and repeats them on your request. Nevertheless, you need to teach it manually, along with running the scripts.
- Selenium IDE is a free browser extension. It does the same that ZP does, by remembering and repeating actions. Simple processes don’t need any code experience, but complex stuff will require a basic understanding of JavaScript.
- BAS is a not-so-popular separate program to automate processes, but it’s still a good option.
For tech-people
- Pyautogui is a cross-platform automation module for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Scripts must be in the Python language. Even the newest coder who has just begun to learn the basics of programming can do it.
- Playwright is a product for testers on Microsoft. The API supports TypeScript, JS, Python, .NET, WebKit, and Firefox.
- If you’re a QA engineer you might think that Selenium Webdriver should do the trick, but not really, it fails more than other solutions.
- Puppeteer – This is just not a good solution.
How to monetize it:
- When it comes to CPA, choose a topic and stick to it when creating the channel. include the link in the first comment and pin it. When the channel gains at least 10 thousand subscribers, you can alternate short videos with the usual format and sell using long videos.
- Find popular niches develop the channels and sell them after having several subscribers. Transfer them to Telegram and then sell the channel itself or advertise on it.
Conclusion
Shareware traffic sources gained a lot of popularity. But UBT is still the king for beginners.
