Hi, guys how are you doing today? If you read my previous post (here is the link if you haven't read it already: How to grow a YouTube channel from a TikTok scraper).
You know what I am trying to accomplish by doing this scrapper. So let me present to you the first cycle of I hope not many algorithms that, I might be using in order to create everything I need.
Here you have the first algorithm idea 😀:
Algorithm's first part objectives
- Discover interesting TikToks
- Filter them by a specific category
- Filter by the amount
- Download them
- Set a location folder
Steps:
In the first place, should access TikTok API if it is public and we can avoid directly using a scrapper
If the API is available we should locate all viral videos (maybe through likes or views)
Once we automatically filtered all the videos we want, we need to hand pick all the videos related to our channel's main category
Create a folder where all TikToks should be located
Create an option in our algorithm to select the number of videos we want
Download all selected videos in the folder we previously created
*Note: having a download folder helps us when uploading the videos to YT
Algorithm's second part objectives
- Re-upload videos
- Prefill data in YT studio
- Interact automatically with the YT interface or through API
Steps:
Upload video to YT through API
Add generic data to every field
Watch out for copyright
Here you have it guys, you can see that the steps to get everything up and running aren't any difficult to understand and can really be followed pretty easily. So guys in the following days, I will be uploading step-by-step tutorials on how to implement this algorithm to accomplish what I want.
Of course, I will be uploading the code base in case you want to play with it, or if you want to become part of the project by doing a PR
That's it for today guys 🤞🤞, if you want to support me go and read my personal blog, follow me, and be part of the process as well 😁😁😗
