TikTok Advertising 
When running TikTok ads, it is obvious that you would want to foster engagement with your customers, as well as timely answer your customer’s concerns. That’s why keeping track of TikTok ads comments is of huge importance. Comments, in this case, are huge parts of your ad strategy as they indicate the user’s interests or concerns about your brand or your product.
However, you might miss a large number of comments, which leads to poor interaction with your users. If you’re in a situation where you’re struggling with managing TikTok ads comments, this post is tailor-made for you. Let’s dive in!
How to see comments on TikTok ads
You can definitely view your TikTok ad comments manually by clicking on each individual post. However, for brands that have a tight posting schedule, large customer base, or many products to sell, this approach would be highly time-consuming and inefficient.
That’s why we would recommend you set up your TikTok Ads Manager first. Here, you will be able to view, filter, reply to, like, pin, export, hide and block the TikTok comments made on your ads using the Comment Management tool. These tools also let you manage comments one at a time or in bulk.
To register a TikTok Ads Manager account, gain access to its website first. You will see two options to sign up by email address or phone number, so choose whichever method suits you more. Afterward, fill in the verification code to complete the registration. Finally, you just need to finish some verification steps before you can gain access to the Comment Management tool.
The Comment Management tool can be accessed in two ways:
- Go to Assets > Comments
- Go to Campaign > Select an Ad Group, click the three dots > Comments
View TikTok ads comments
To do this, choose the TikTok Comments section from the sidebar and then click on the Select an ad group bar to pick an Ad Group from the list. Otherwise, search by name to find a comment.
In the TikTok Comments module, the following dimensions about each comment are available:
- Content of comment
- Your response: Replied, Pinned, or Didn’t Reply or Pin
- Sentiment: Positive or Negative
- Contains Question: Yes or No
- Status: Publish, Hidden or Hidden (Contains blocked word)
- Type: Comment or Reply
- Number of Replies
- Number of Likes
- Created On
- Ad Name/ ID
- Ad Group Name/ID
- Campaign Name/ID
To view the detailed properties of a comment, select a comment and then under the Content of comment column, click the View Details button to watch the Ad, see the Ad Details, the Ad Group ID, and view Comments and Replies.
Filter TikTok ads comments
When you want to sort your comments for a specific ad group, you can filter them by Status or Type.
