Output data

Each video is stored as a separate record in the dataset. Here is an example output:

{
  "hashtag": "coding",
  "videoUrl": "https://www.tiktok.com/@devguru/video/7234567890123456789",
  "author": "devguru",
  "description": "Day 30 of learning Python - built my first web scraper today! #coding #python #webdev",
  "likes": 15200,
  "comments": 342,
  "shares": 891
}

Cost of usage

TikTok Hashtag Scraper uses Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing at the High tier:

Tier	Cost per 1,000 events	Free tier (approx.)
High	$1.50	~3,300 events/month

One event corresponds to one video scraped. Collecting 50 videos for a single hashtag would cost approximately $0.075. The free tier provides roughly 3,300 videos per month. The higher pricing tier reflects the additional complexity involved in extracting data from TikTok's dynamic platform.

Tips and advanced usage

• Campaign tracking -- Set up scheduled runs to monitor branded hashtag performance throughout a marketing campaign.
• Trend detection -- Track multiple trending hashtags to identify emerging content formats and viral patterns early.
• Influencer outreach -- Use the author field to build lists of active creators in your niche, then sort by engagement to prioritize outreach.
• Content benchmarking -- Compare average likes, comments, and shares across different hashtags to find the most engaged communities.
• Cross-platform analysis -- Combine TikTok data with Instagram or YouTube scraping results to build a comprehensive social media report.
