Step 1: Platform Searches

步骤1：平台搜索

TikTok:

Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~tiktok-scraper"
Input:
{
  "keywords": ["#[game_or_genre]", "#[game_or_genre]tiktok", "#gamingtiktok", "#[game]gameplay"],
  "maxItems": 300
}

YouTube:

Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~youtube-scraper"
Input:
{
  "searchKeywords": ["[game_or_genre] gameplay", "[game_or_genre] review", "[game_or_genre] tips", "[game_or_genre] highlights"],
  "maxResults": 50,
  "type": "video"
}

Recommended — run_actor.js (handles waiting, output, and file saving automatically):

bash

undefined

TikTok:

工具: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~tiktok-scraper"
输入:
{
  "keywords": ["#[game_or_genre]", "#[game_or_genre]tiktok", "#gamingtiktok", "#[game]gameplay"],
  "maxItems": 300
}

YouTube:

工具: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~youtube-scraper"
输入:
{
  "searchKeywords": ["[game_or_genre] gameplay", "[game_or_genre] review", "[game_or_genre] tips", "[game_or_genre] highlights"],
  "maxResults": 50,
  "type": "video"
}

推荐方案 — run_actor.js（自动处理等待、输出和文件保存）:

bash

Save as CSV

保存为CSV文件

node scripts/run_actor.js
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-scraper"
--input '{"param": "value"}'

Save as JSON

保存为JSON文件

node scripts/run_actor.js
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-scraper"
--input '{"param": "value"}'
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json

> `APIFY_TOKEN` must be set in environment or `.env` file.

**REST API fallback:**
```bash

node scripts/run_actor.js
--actor "apidojo~tiktok-scraper"
--input '{"param": "value"}'
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json

> 必须在环境变量或`.env`文件中设置`APIFY_TOKEN`。

**REST API备选方案:**
```bash

TikTok

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~tiktok-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"keywords": ["#valorant", "#valorantclips", "#gamingtiktok"], "maxItems": 300}'

YouTube

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~youtube-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"searchKeywords": ["valorant gameplay", "valorant tips 2026"], "maxResults": 50}'

Step 2: Score Creators

步骤2：创作者评分

TikTok gaming score:

tt_score = (avg_views / (follower_count + 1)) * 0.40   # view-to-follower ratio
         + (avg_likes / (avg_views + 1)) * 100 * 0.30  # like rate
         + (posts_about_game / total_posts) * 0.30      # niche focus

YouTube gaming score:

view_ratio = avg_views / (subscriber_count + 1)
yt_score = (view_ratio > 0.10 ? 1 : view_ratio/0.10) * 0.35
         + (avg_comments / (avg_views+1) > 0.01 ? 1 : ratio/0.01) * 0.25
         + (subscriber_count in 1000..100000 ? 1 : 0.5) * 0.20
         + (niche_focus_ratio) * 0.20

Creator stage:

Rising (< 10K subs): Affordable, high engagement, fast growing — best for early partnerships
Mid-tier (10K–100K): Established audience, proven niche authority
Macro (> 100K): Large reach, premium pricing

TikTok游戏创作者评分:

tt_score = (avg_views / (follower_count + 1)) * 0.40   # 浏览量/粉丝数比率
         + (avg_likes / (avg_views + 1)) * 100 * 0.30  # 点赞率
         + (posts_about_game / total_posts) * 0.30      # 垂直领域专注度

YouTube游戏创作者评分:

view_ratio = avg_views / (subscriber_count + 1)
yt_score = (view_ratio > 0.10 ? 1 : view_ratio/0.10) * 0.35
         + (avg_comments / (avg_views+1) > 0.01 ? 1 : ratio/0.01) * 0.25
         + (subscriber_count in 1000..100000 ? 1 : 0.5) * 0.20
         + (niche_focus_ratio) * 0.20

创作者阶段:

潜力创作者（订阅数<1万）：成本低、互动度高、增长迅速——最适合早期合作
中阶创作者（1万-10万订阅）：受众稳定、垂直领域权威已确立
头部创作者（订阅数>10万）：覆盖范围广、定价较高

Step 3: Edge Cases

步骤3：特殊情况处理

Gaming news / outlet accounts appear: Drop accounts with "news", "esports org", "official" — keep individual creators only
Clip compilation accounts (reposts, not originals): Flag if
```
video_upload_frequency > 3/day
```
— likely compilation not original content
TikTok gaming creators also streaming: Note in output if bio mentions "Twitch" or "stream" — these creators have dual platform value
Game-specific niche too small: If < 15 creators found for a specific game, widen to genre

出现游戏新闻/机构账号: 剔除名称包含“news”、“esports org”、“official”的账号——仅保留个人创作者
剪辑合集账号（转发内容，非原创）：如果
```
video_upload_frequency > 3/day
```
则标记——这类账号很可能是合集账号而非原创内容创作者
TikTok游戏创作者同时在其他平台直播: 如果个人简介提到“Twitch”或“stream”，则在输出中注明——这类创作者具备跨平台价值
特定游戏垂直领域规模过小: 如果针对特定游戏找到的创作者不足15位，扩大搜索范围至品类层级

Troubleshooting

故障排查

Only mega-channels appear: Add "small", "indie", or "growing" to search keywords to surface smaller creators. Gaming genre too broad: Narrow by adding specific game title or mechanic: "FPS" → "Valorant", "battle royale". TikTok gaming content dominated by clips with no creator: These are highlight reels — filter out accounts with very high posting frequency (> 2 posts/day likely aggregators).

仅出现头部频道: 在搜索关键词中添加“small”、“indie”或“growing”，以发掘更小体量的创作者。 游戏品类范围过宽: 通过添加具体游戏名称或玩法缩小范围：例如将“FPS”改为“Valorant”、“battle royale”。 TikTok游戏内容多为无创作者的剪辑: 这些是高光集锦——过滤掉发布频率极高的账号（每日发布>2条很可能是聚合账号）。
