How to Maximize Your Clip Earnings on Clippers

Focus on Engagement, Not Just Views

The Clippers performance score weights engagement heavily — comments count 2x, shares count 3x, and saves count 2x compared to raw views. A clip with 100K views and high engagement will outperform one with 500K views but minimal interaction.

Practical tips:

• End your clips with a call-to-action (ask viewers to share or comment)
• Create content that sparks conversation
• Target topics people feel compelled to save for later

Post at Peak Times

Timing matters for initial engagement velocity. Post during peak hours for your target audience — typically 6-9 PM local time on weekdays and midday on weekends.

Quality Over Quantity

Submitting 10 mediocre clips will not beat 2 exceptional ones. Focus your energy on creating clips that genuinely represent the creator's best content.

Study Top Performers

Inside the Clippers app, you can see aggregate performance data. Pay attention to which clip styles consistently drive high engagement and replicate what works.

Keep Your Clips Short and Punchy

The best-performing clips are typically 15-45 seconds. Hook viewers in the first 2 seconds — no long intros.

Maintain Consistency

Clippers who submit regularly (at least 4-6 clips per month) build momentum. Consistency signals reliability to creators and improves your chances of staying in their program.
