4 Useful tips for adding music to Facebook videos

  1. Follow the audio copyright
  2. As you may be aware, nearly all content on the internet, including music, is protected by copyright and necessitates permission for usage. It's important not to overlook this aspect and ensure compliance with regulations. Platforms enforce strict policies regarding the utilization of copyrighted music in videos, and attempting to circumvent these rules is ill-advised. As a pro tool, CapCut gets what you are concerned about. There is a tool available to check your music copyright and also enjoy free music sources for appealing videos.
  3. 
    Follow the audio copyright
  4. Choose music with the same vibe as your video
  5. When choosing music for your video, consider several factors:
  6. 1. Does it match the atmosphere and emotion in your video?
  7. 2. Would your target audience like it?
  8. 3. Do the tempo and pace of the video fit the video?
  9. After all the steps, your video will get much more likes than you expected.
  10. Pay attention to the audio volume
  11. I believe that many people will get freaked out when they turn on a channel with deafening sounds. (Maybe that's the reason some mild, educated people became averse to Trump when he addressed a speech to canvass voters for his MAGA dream.) And, yes, volume has power. To that end, you should fine-tune your video's volume between -24dB and -8 dB. If higher, it becomes noise for some people.
  12. Include suitable lyrics to your videos

Everybody gets into a song first from the rhythm, and then they love a song by memorizing the lyrics. Words have powers indeed, and so do lyrics. Like flesh on the skeletons, you need to match your video with lyrics and make them a perfect fit. But how? You should understand your video content and convey its theme through lyrics. And control their length, style, and forms in accordance with the video's tone, mood, and timing.
