If you're an author or book marketer, you already know that BookTok is one of the most powerful platforms for discovering new trends and reaching readers. But have you ever wondered what really makes a BookTok post go viral? What drives the success of certain videos and accounts?

That's exactly why we built the Weekly BookTok Charts: a free tool that decodes the marketing trends shaping BookTok, week after week.


What Are the Weekly BookTok Charts?

The Weekly BookTok Charts compile the top viral BookTok posts from the previous week and break down why they performed so well. We look at the hooks that grabbed attention, the video formats that kept viewers swiping, the trending sounds being layered in, and the broader strategies the most successful accounts are using.

The result is a continuously updated snapshot of what's working on BookTok right now—so you don't have to spend hours doom-scrolling to find out.


How Can This Help Authors and Marketers?

Whether you're promoting your own book or running campaigns for other authors, the charts are designed to help you:

  • Spot emerging trends early so you can adapt your campaigns before everyone else catches on.
  • Identify the elements that make posts succeed—formats, sounds, opening lines, slide counts, and more.
  • Track the top-performing accounts that are shaping the conversation on BookTok.

Instead of guessing what to post next, you get a weekly cheat sheet built from real data on what's actually breaking through.


Stay Ahead of the Curve

The charts update every week. You can view the latest charts here and jump into the #booktok-charts channel in our Discord to discuss the week's takeaways and swap account recommendations with other authors and marketers.


Your Input Matters

The charts are only as good as the accounts we're watching. If there's a BookTok creator or author you think we should be tracking, let us know in the Discord—we're always expanding our list based on community suggestions.


Join us every week as we dive into the top BookTok marketing trends and unlock the secrets to viral success. Let's harness the power of BookTok together and take your book marketing to the next level! 📚✨
