TikTok, a popular platform for sharing short videos, has become an indispensable part of the daily life of many users around the world. From August 1, 2024, the digital world in Serbia gained access to paid ads on this platform, which in a short time became a key player in the field of digital marketing.
Why advertise on the TikTok platform?
TikTok is known for its ability to spread content quickly, thanks to its algorithm that shows users videos based on their interests and behavior on the platform. This ability makes TikTok ideal for brands looking to expand their reach and engage with potential customers in innovative ways.

Also, TikTok has one significant advantage over other social networks. The level of user engagement is 5 to 9% per post, which is significantly higher than on other social networks. User interaction with the content is quite high – users often like, comment or forward videos to other users.
TikTok has the ability to target advertising based on detailed demographic data. Advertisers can define their target group using data such as age, gender, language and location. In addition to demographics, TikTok allows targeting based on location, including state, city, and zip code. This precise segmentation allows brands to effectively reach their target audience, tailor messages and content to specific user groups, and achieve better results in their marketing campaigns.
TikTok allows advertisers to reach target audiences based on their interests and behaviors, providing detailed data for precise targeting. Advertisers can reach users based on their interests in various categories such as gaming, automotive, news and entertainment, financial services, beauty and personal care, and more. In addition to interests, TikTok allows targeting based on recent user behavior, including video-related actions such as watching, liking, commenting, and sharing content in the past 15 days.
How are TikTok ads displayed?
TikTok ads are displayed in a variety of ways within the app itself, allowing brands to reach users through several different formats. These formats include:
In Feed Ads
In-feed ads appear in users’ feeds as they watch and scroll through TikTok videos. These ads are integrated in a way that makes them almost identical to organic content, allowing them to fit naturally into the user experience. This integration provides a high level of visibility and engagement, as users can like, comment, share and follow brands directly from these ads.
Brand Takeover Ads
Brand takeover ads are displayed immediately after opening the TikTok app, which allows them to be highly visible and attract the attention of users. These ads take over the app screen and are displayed before users see any other content. Because of their dominant position, brand takeover ads are ideal for conveying strong messages and increasing brand awareness.
TopView Ads
TopView ads appear at the top of the “For You” page as soon as the user opens the application. This ad format practically combines the advantages of brand takeover and in-feed ads, providing maximum results. TopView ads keep users’ attention for a long time because they are among the first things users see when they open the app.
