TikTok Caption vs. Hook: What's the Difference?
The text that appears below your video. It includes your hook (first line), body content, call-to-action, and hashtags. Captions are searchable and help TikTok understand your content.
The first 1-2 seconds of your video (verbal/visual) AND the first line of your caption. The hook's job is to stop the scroll and convince viewers to watch more. It's the most important element.
