If you find that tapping overtop of the vulva isn't providing enough stimulation, consider using your other hand to spread the labia - and tapping directly on top of the clit. Keep in mind: this can feel really, really intense for a lot of people, and it's best done when the body is already aroused and rarin' to go. If you try direct tapping too early, it can be painful - not pleasurable.
Clit tapping is as customizable as it is fun. You can easily change the intensity of your clit tapping by simply upping the frequency or the power. So, essentially, tap harder and/or tap faster. If you want to slow things down and enjoy more sensation, simply tap softer - or tap slower.

Keep in mind that clit tapping can simply be a part of a wider range of ways to pleasure your favorite clitoris (whether that's yours or someone else's!) It can be used in conjunction with rubbing - or it can be done while providing vaginal pleasure. It can be a way to give your mouth a break during oral sex for a few minutes - or it can be done with the surface of your favorite sex toy to add sensation. It's just a different way to touch a clit!
If you're a penis-owning person who has a clitoris-owning partner, don't forget about the fun of doing this with your erection! Especially if the two of you are about slide into some intercourse, clit tapping with the weight of the penis can provide a lovely sensation that keeps the anticipation running high.
Are There Toys that Do This For Me?
After you've tried clit tapping and fallen in love with it, you're going to try to do it for 20 minutes at a time - and quickly experience soreness in places you didn't know could be sore.
Luckily for us, the technology now exists to explore the world of clit tapping. It's still a relatively new sex toy technology, but a few manufacturers now offer it. Just place the toy up against the clitoris, and a small point inside of the vibrator presses itself out and back in to do all of the "tapping" work for you.

To give you an idea of what it looks like, one of those types of clit tapping sex toys is the Deia Arouser. You can see the fingertip-sized center where the tapping sensations are focused. Just place the Deia Arouser over the clitoris and let it do its job!

As most clit tapping toys use a small, fingertip-sized tip to provide the tapping sensations, most people will want to warm-up with broader sensations before moving onto a clit tapping toy. That way, the pinpoint tapping sensations from your new sex toy feel amazing!
Can I Orgasm from Clit Tapping?
Well, that's mostly something to find out for yourself! Every body is different - so what gets you off won't necessarily get someone else off.
For me, personally, clit tapping can be orgasmic in the right circumstances. It isn't as easy of an orgasm as rubbing for me, but with the right circumstances, wow, it's fantastic! I'm especially fond of clit tapping as some of the first touches to my clit. Jumping straight into rubbing can feel uncomfortable, but some light taps across the top of the vulva feel pleasurable while simultaneously feeling a bit flirty and playful.

If you want to see if clit tapping can be orgasmic for you, I recommend starting your next pleasure session with a bit of tapping - and seeing how it feels. If you tend to rub, grind, or use a toy, consider swapping it up with some clit tapping as you get closer to orgasm - and experimenting with the frequency, power, and broadness of your tapping to see what helps get you off.
It's entirely possible that clit tapping won't be your secret button to orgasm - and that's okay! Not every sensation needs to be instantly orgasmic; add clit tapping to your repertoire of options to keep sensations feeling fresh while exploring a new way to pleasure yourself (or your partner!) for future endeavors.
