# What are the best TikTok hashtags for views?

Trending videos across US, GB, CA, AU; sum view counts per hashtag and rank. Shows which tags appeared on high-view videos in this pull — not a viral guarantee.

Data as of 2026-07-21. Sample: 32. 32 trending videos across US, GB, CA, AU. Ranked by summed sample views. Live refresh via GET /v1/tiktok/feed/trending.

## Key numbers

- **Videos sampled:** 32 (4 regions)
- **Unique hashtags:** 222
- **Top tag views:** 29.9M (#viral)
- **Regions:** 4 (US · GB · CA · AU)

## Hashtags ranked by sample views

| Rank | Hashtag | Views (sample) | Avg views | Videos | Share |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | #viral | 29.9M | 5.0M | 6 | 19% |
| 2 | #lamineyamal | 26.5M | 8.8M | 3 | 9% |
| 3 | #fifaworldcup | 14.2M | 7.1M | 2 | 6% |
| 4 | #fyp | 13.0M | 1.9M | 7 | 22% |
| 5 | #foryoupage | 11.4M | 2.3M | 5 | 16% |
| 6 | #storytime | 7.3M | 2.4M | 3 | 9% |
| 7 | #fcbarcelona | 3.5M | 1.7M | 2 | 6% |
| 8 | #trending | 2.4M | 1.2M | 2 | 6% |
| 9 | #foryou | 1.8M | 600.1K | 3 | 9% |
| 10 | #creatorsearchinsights | 589.4K | 294.7K | 2 | 6% |

Discovery tags (#fyp, #foryou) usually top view totals because they appear on almost every trending video. Pair one of them with topical tags that match the content.

## Methodology

Pull trending videos for US, GB, CA, and AU. For each hashtag on a video, add that video's visible view count to the tag total. Rank by total sample views. Drop tags with fewer than two videos.

- Sample: Four regions × one trending page each. Ranking is by view totals, not by how often the tag appears (see the sibling frequency page for that). The committed JSON is from the latest successful live refresh (empty pulls do not overwrite).
- Refresh: Live recompute on snapshot refresh when SOCIALFETCH_API_KEY is valid (target: weekly). A refresh that returns zero videos fails instead of writing empty rows.
- Formula: Views (sample) = sum of visible view counts on videos that use the hashtag. Avg views = Views (sample) ÷ videos with that hashtag. Share % = videos with hashtag ÷ videos in sample × 100.
- Endpoint: `GET /v1/tiktok/feed/trending`, region required (US, GB, CA, AU in this snapshot)
- Endpoint: `GET /v1/tiktok/search/hashtags`, optional follow-up to inspect recent videos for one tag

## Trending feed (US)

```bash
curl -sS \
  -H "x-api-key: $SOCIALFETCH_API_KEY" \
  -G "https://api.socialfetch.dev/v1/tiktok/feed/trending" \
  --data-urlencode "region=US"
```

## FAQ

### Do these hashtags guarantee more views?

No. The table ranks tags by how much view volume they carried in this trending sample. Broad discovery tags win that race because they are attached to most uploads. Topical fit and the video itself still drive distribution.

### How is this different from best hashtags for TikTok?

That sibling page ranks by how often a tag appears in the sample (share %). This page ranks by summed view counts on videos that used the tag. Same data source, different sort.

### Should I only use #fyp?

Most creators still add a discovery tag, but flooding a caption with unrelated high-view tags does not help. Use one or two discovery tags plus tags that describe the video.

### How often is this updated?

On snapshot refresh (target weekly). The as-of date is the last successful compute. We do not call trending on every page view.

### Can I reproduce this with the API?

Yes. Call GET /v1/tiktok/feed/trending per region, sum views per hashtag from captions, and sort descending. Start from the curl on this page.
