I recently started a new TikTok account and I’m trying to grow it from zero. What methods are working well for new accounts in 2026? Is it better to focus on posting often, making better videos or joining trends? I’d like to hear what has worked for others.

All of them move the needle to your favor, however, consistently posting high quality content is what you should focus on.
 
To grow a TikTok account, you need to focus on the topic, viewer retention, valuable content, engagement rates, and so on.
 
From my experience I would recommend uploading one video every day and posting it at the same time each day. Consistency matters a lot. In the beginning you may not get many views but gradually your views will start to increase, and suddenly one of your Shorts could go viral.

I personally followed this strategy on my new channel and gained 10 million views and 3,000 followers in just 3 months.
 
every thing you listed are what you will have to do and with the right tags to the post those help move things
 
First, high-quality videos are essential. Second, trending content increases your chances of success. Third, and most importantly, you need to upload videos regularly to ensure consistency.

In terms of a vry fresh account it could make sense to concentrate more on content that shall be viewed rather than simply creating lots of the content. trends might help me to get started initially but it would be the format that keep the retention going.
 
Focus on good content first, then consistency.

Trends can help with reach, but they won't do much if the content itself isn't good. Test different formats and double down on what gets the best watch time.
 
Focus more on hooks than raw frequency post 3-5x week consistently, nail the first 3 seconds, and only jump on trends that fit your niche.
 
I’d focus more on making good videos than just posting a ton. Especially the first couple seconds. If you can get people to stop scrolling and actually watch, that seems to matter way more. Trends are worth trying too, but only when they actually fit your content.
 
growing TikTok profile depend on the expose niche and copying other related pages content with expose on growth to certain profile growth for new profile with adding of replica SEO captions and hashtag on every upload to trend content for traffic engage.
 
Focus on searchable useful content and community interaction Tiktok's 2026 direction strongly favours curiosity, discovery and authentic contents.
 
Don't post indiscriminately or blindly follow trends. Let your new account take off by optimizing view counts with a sharp 2-second hook, focusing on one niche, and consistently posting 3-5 quality videos per week.
 
For me, it works best with short videos that have a hook in the first couple of seconds and seem native to the TikTok platform itself
