My Twitter thread EXPLODED! Stunned

  1. 2

    Congratulations! It sure can be exhilarating when things unexpectedly blow up!

    Also, interesting thread, followed you to see what else you have in store.

      Yes, indeed it is. Things got wild with this thread. I got already 100+ new followers in less than 24h, it's crazy.

      Thank you very much by the way, both for your words and the following!
      I hope I'm worthy of the following :D

        That is awesome!

        I am curious, I glanced through your posts, saw a few threads. Was this the first time that things blew up? Was your follower count a lot lower when you posted your previous threads?

        I am trying to figure out if there is some way to SEO(not sure what else to call this) the Twitter algo. Or if follower count the only way to get more tweet traction.

          Hey Pras2018

          Regarding Twitter SEO, I know there are a few tricks to be featured on Trends and Topics but I've never done anything about that.

          All my growth has come from posting 3-5 tweets a day, interacting with different people, and tweeting 1-2 Threads/week.

          Let me know if you want to obsess on Twitter growth with me hehe

            That is awesome! Looks like you have been real consistent.

            Seems like your followers are booming. Looks like you are well on your way to getting to 500 early :) It is always inspirational seeing other people growing. Motivates me to keep going.

            But ya I just launched my alpha. So now it is time to start experimenting. Twitter feels like a full time job to grow on it. I have to experiment and see how well it compares to other medium. How much time do you spend on Twitter?

              Yes, it seems things are going well for me. Let's see what else happens over the next weeks and months.

              On Twitter I spend something like 1h/day.

              Most of the time I spend engaging with other people and on other people's tweets or having chats through DMs.

              I spend also 2-3/week writing 1-2 threads.

              These threads are a compilation of thoughts of my own or other people's ideas.

              Growing Twitter is part of my 2021 Q4 goals. Let's see if I can get to 1k followers until the 31st December. That's what I'm working on.
