🐹 Hamsterdam Weekly TikTok Gems: Bonus Content for Part 64 (6/24-6/30, 2024) 💎

By Ethan Lazuk

Peek inside my FYP as we journey into the personalization of the TikTok algorithm!

Wait, so what is this page?

Well, it’s a collection of my favorite TikTok content found during the last week. 🙌

In short, this is TikTok content that I wanted to put in Hamsterdam Part 64, but didn’t because it would have slowed down the page’s load time. 📱 🐢

PSA: This still might time out on mobile. Scroll slowly. 😁

Here’s a little more back story, since this the first one of these.

Every Sunday, I publish Hamsterdam, a weekly recap of SEO and AI news and other content that I find organically in my social feeds, my Discover feed, the newsletters I subscribe to, or my general travels online.

I find the information helpful, so I share it with the world.

However, one source of content that I haven’t been including as much is TikTok.

It’s not that I don’t like TikTok. I visit the app regularly, like many folks do.

It’s that TikTok embeds weigh down my Hamsterdam posts, which are already packed with embedded tweets and videos.

So, I had the idea to create a separate page (this one) with my favorite TikTok content.

We’ll see how it goes, and I’ll likely make future improvements.

This page should be no-indexed … but I’ll make it indexable, as a test. 😇

Without further ado, here’s the TikTok content I found notable this week.

This content might not be super recent. It’s just what I came across this week.

I’ve put subheadings by category. 🤛

• Music
• Mindfulness
• Sports
• Humor
• AI, ML, etc.
• Marketing
• Dev & design

🎵 Music

I’m an avid music listener. Here are videos that struck a chord with me.

🧘 Mindfulness

I practice mindfulness meditation and have found it helpful in my daily life. Here are videos on the topic that I would consider credible.

⛳️ Sports

I grew up playing sports, but my favorite content showcases the human (and intellectual) sides of it.

😭 Humor

I removed the humor section from the main Hamsterdam recaps, but rest assured there’s plenty of funny content on TikTok. Just note, this is what I found funny (which means it definitely isn’t).

Do you know what Rotten Tomatoes actually does or how they do it? 🍅 Do you know why you should take RT scores with a grain of salt? Do you know about the tragedy of Paddington 2’s perfect score? (I still am kept up at night by it) Rotten Tomatoes is a great tool to help audiences see movie critic opinions, but sometimes can be mistaken for a review…🤷‍♂️ #movies #film #filmindustry #kingdomoftheplanetoftheapes #moviereview #moviereviews #dune #dune2 #minions #whattowatch #movieideas #moviesapp #rottentomatoes @Rotten Tomatoes

🤖 AI, ML, etc.

I don’t really use TikTok to engage with SEO content, but I do view a lot of AI-related videos (both serious and humorous). Here’s what I found this week.

📣 Marketing

I also find some good general marketing content (or specific to other channels) on TikTok. (Shouldn’t this have been the first section? Maybe next week …)

Gold from the branding great, Rory Sutherland. When you cut corners on customer service it is a slow death to your brand. Listen to our full podcast through my link in bio or on Youtube under Art of the Brand.

👾 Dev & design

Lastly, here’s content related to website or other development work (often with a generative-AI overlap, these days) or design trends.

As a reminder, this was all bonus content to the latest Hamsterdam recap (Part 64).

Check that out for more of the week’s SEO and AI news. (Or if this is outdated, head over to the main Hamsterdam page to find the latest recap.)
