Estimated Earnings

Revenue estimates based on follower count and average video performance

Creator Rewards (Est. Monthly)

No estimate

Creator Rewards is for personal accounts. TikTok lists @guinnessworldrecords as an organisation account, so we don't estimate a payout from the program.

Sponsorship Value (Est. Per Post)

Based on 28.9M followers

$144,745 – $347,389

Our per-follower range for accounts this size; real deals vary with niche and audience. How we estimate it

Disclaimer: These are rough estimates: Creator Rewards at the $0.40 to $1.00 per 1,000 qualified views creators report (TikTok publishes no rate), brand deals at our per-follower ranges (how we estimate them). Actual earnings vary by niche, audience demographics, brand deals, and individual negotiation. TikTok Creator Rewards payouts fluctuate and are not guaranteed. Run your own numbers in the TikTok money calculator.

Content Strategy Analysis

Based on 290 videos

19 of the 287 videos that aren't pinned (6.6%) passed twice the average plays and 10 passed five times it. Plays are uneven from one video to the next (consistency grade D). 30 of 290 videos are under 15 seconds and 13 run a minute or longer, so few of its videos can earn Creator Rewards.

Posting Patterns & Optimal Timing

Based on 290 videos (14.6% sample)

The videos we analysed went up most often on Thursday and Tuesday and most around 17:00 and 19:00 UTC.

Posting Frequency

How often the account posts, against the typical tracked creator. It tells you whether to expect a steady stream or occasional drops.

Not shown for this account. The 290 videos we analysed include 3 pinned videos, which TikTok keeps at the top of a profile however old they are. Counting them stretches the date range, so a weekly rate from this sample would understate how often the account posts. The day and hour charts count 295 uploads, pinned ones included.

Most Active Days
