Creating a TikTok account without showing your face in 2024 can be an excellent idea if you want to maintain your anonymity while building an influential and lucrative online presence. Here's a detailed guide to launch and monetize your faceless account on TikTok.

1. Choose a profitable niche


The first crucial step is to choose a niche that not only excites you but also offers strong monetization potential.

The goal is to choose a niche where videos are simple to create and the audience has a significant budget. The advantage of targeting a niche with a substantial budget is that the RPM (revenue per thousand views) will be high and partnerships will be interesting.

Some tips: Don't try to revolutionize a niche, take what works, modify a few elements, and publish. Use TikTok search on your phone to see which videos have been trending in the last 3 months. And one last tip: Search for your niche name in English or another language to see what works in other countries!

Here are some popular ideas with monetization suggestions:

  • KPOP

    • Who is this singer? What's the name of this group?

2. Choose the right video format (the most important)


Choosing the format is the most important. A saturated niche can be accessible through an innovative video format. And an underexploited niche can be easily accessible with a more classic format.

3. Account Creation


Important: We recommend creating an account on your phone and "warming up" the account before any publication. How to warm up a TikTok account? Simply watch several videos on the main feed, like interesting TikToks, and subscribe to a few accounts.

Creating an account on a computer and not warming up the account will result in an almost automatic shadowban. And last point: A professional and attractive profile is essential to attract subscribers and monetization opportunities:

  • Username: Choose an impactful name, related to your niche, and easy to pronounce to facilitate word-of-mouth. Example: Megaquiz, Antoine Cuisine, Arthur Histoire, etc.
  • Bio: Write a concise bio that clearly describes the content you're going to offer, e.g., "Quiz Enthusiast"
  • Profile picture: Use an image representative of your niche, like a professional logo or an attractive icon. You can also use an avatar, which you can create via ChatGPT + DALL-E 3 or Midjourney.
  • Link in Bio: Don't add a link to your bio before reaching 20 or 30k subscribers. And only add a very high-quality link

4. Essential tools and resources
