How to grow your Twitter account and monetize your audience. (Retweet for others). Firstly, don’t let anybody lie to you, there’s money on the internet. But you’d only make it if you know how to go about it. Growing your X account requires you being strategic and consistent. Some tips to help you build: - Have a niche; could be sport, web3, politics, health, music, relationships, or any other niche. Just let your page be known for something. And how can you pick this? What’s that thing you have a lot of knowledge about? What do you have interest in? That will help you in making a personal choice on that. - Pick a profile picture and stick with it; people need to get familiar with your page, it will become harder if you continue to change profile picture every 2days. Let them get used to one, at least in your building stage. - Always put your thoughts in words; you just have to keep posting, as the ideas come, put it out here. Funny enough, the contents you least expect to go viral most times do the most numbers. Don’t limit yourself, don’t be too careful. I understand a lot of you don’t want to get dragged, so you keep your thoughts in the drafts most times, don’t do that. Let it out!!! The fact is you can’t escape dragging on this street, we all will get dragged, your day will come, no matter how careful you’re. So, don’t hold back those opinions, drop them and move on. Also, the moment you understand that two people can say the same thing here, people will agree with one person and drag the other, you’d stop caring about what people will say here, the app runs on hypocrisy. - Have a tone to your messages; create a tone for your audience and stick to it. This is why 4 people can tweet about the same thing, but it’d still come out differently to the readers. Different tones, that’s where your juice is. - Quality contents will help you stand out; you need to put out valuable, interesting, entertaining contents that are relevant to your niche. - Be consistent: always show up everyday. No matter what, post something. Even if you run out of contents, go to your old posts, recycle one and post again. You just need to always show up. People here can easily move on from you to the next guy. You need to be in your audience faces regularly. - Follow influencers in your niche, engage them closely, they’ll get used to your comments and probably find it easy to always reply you if your takes are good in their comment section, that way you start growing. It also becomes easier for you since their followers also have interest in your niche, remember it’s the same niche, you start building your fanbase from there. - Jump on trend topics; give your opinions on trend topics that are relevant to your niche, it helps extend your reach beyond your followers. If you’re using trending hashtags, one or two is enough, don’t do too much, could be seen as spamming. - Engage with your audience: reply their comments from time to time, host spaces where y’all talk, it helps them get closer to you, and that way you, you tend to earn their trust.
