I Studied 16,000 X Accounts - This is How You Grow On X (Twitter)

I studied over 16,000 x profiles and discovered something crazy smaller creators are doing things better than bigger creators and maybe even you too in fact what we found out meant that the video you're about to watch is way different than the one we ended up making and we found out three unexpected lessons that we think are just way more important but to help you understand we're going to go back to the start of this story so a few weeks ago I made a video on how to go from 0 to 10,000 followers in as quick

as time as possible but to ex veterans those tactics may seem relatively straightforward write a couple of tweets a day one or two threads per week and make sure that your profile is looking great now that's great advice sure but we got a comment that said what if I'm following all of this advice and I'm still not getting any further so I took this question back in house to Hype Fury HQ where we have access to the analytics of thousands of active X users I was pretty excited to dive into the data to see what

I could find out and after hours of searching and sorting I managed to find three creators who were doing things way differently than everybody else what I found out is that engagement isn't everything sure a huge account gets thousands of likes and reposts on their content but after a certain size that engagement is simply expected but just because the metrics on a post look good doesn't really add up to anything because how can you learn something new from somebody if they get likes and reposts on every single thing that they make and that is the

moment that I realized that I was making the wrong video and ex users with under 10,000 followers can actually teach us way more than you'd expect the first lesson is probably the simplest one ever what's amazing about it is that you make your ex experience 10 times more fun and you can make some friends in the process of doing it you'll sharpen your speaking skills and communicate with real people in real time and if you're really Brave you can brush shoulders with some CEOs and some aess celebrities see if you can guess what it is

from this super short clip let's let's talk about orbit for a second and Earth orbit um that's right it's the criminally underused feature of spaces on X now you don't need to have a pro account on X to set up a room you don't even need to have started the room for you to join in the fun and grab the mic fast growing marketing guy Nicholas Verge has shut up in followers recently by hosting some spaces with some creators with some huge followings all he's done is asked them to be his guest what this means

is that the larger Creator's audience will come into the room and see what's going on and if they like what Nicholas is saying then maybe they'll just follow him too which means this is an incredible way to get growing and to start a community of your own Nicholas then mentions his community and he already has some warm people who know exactly what they're going to get from him they've already developed a relationship with him because they've heard him talk and they know what he's like as a person here's how you can get started in spaces

yourself start by joining other spaces first listen and see what's going on in the room you can react to the posts that are announced in the space to show your support then when you join the space you can ask for for the mic or listen or react to what's going on when you finally do create a space of your own decide on a topic and then just launch it and get moving and be a good host by making sure that everybody in the room gets an opportunity to speak so spaces are a great thing that

we can learn from a smaller account that is fast growing so the next person is flying with the growth of his account and he's building things in the right way but what he's doing is so simple it almost feels like cheating this is Jake Youngblood let me explain the powerful thing that he's doing that makes his content 10 times more interesting many people are telling you to add value and give actionable pieces of advice and that is fantastic advice what Jake is doing is taking things a lot further than that good content creators must inject

their own personality and their own authenticity if they're going to connect with their audience in a world where everybody's copying everybody else Jake brings his own unique brand of irrational optimism and authenticity to the timeline but what are the ways that you can bring authenticity to your own content so that you can harness this powerful tool as well let's look at the niche that you're currently in if you're in the productivity and coaching Niche write down all the major players in your industry then write a list of your own unique attributes and the traits that

make you different essentially what makes you you then when you're making content ask yourself how can I make this more engaging more fun and bring a sense of creativity to the content that I make remember that social media is sometimes an escape from the world so if you can bring a sense of likeness and optimism to the timeline then you're going to get a load of people that also resonate with that energy so well done Jake keep creating and growing your community of irrational optimists the next lesson was a really powerful wakeup call for me

because when I stumbled across this account I realized that he does things that the majority of people tell you not to do his bio is really basic and His Banner is a picture of his dog and he doesn't even show his face but it made me reconsider because what this guy has done he's grown his account to nearly 10,000 followers by doing almost nothing that everybody else does let me tell you first a learning that many creators fall into the Trap of picture this you've been making X content for a while your banner is perfect

your profile seems like you're writing the right content but you see a guy who's not doing any of those things and he's grown way faster than you enter the solution to this problem by our Rising Star leis Pereira he is an entrepreneur currently building an AI tool called audio pen he is focusing purely on his digital product all of the buzz is happening organically because of the value that he's bringing doesn't even have anything to do with his ex profile he's being invited on podcasts and the users of his product are actively shouting him out

on big accounts but you don't have to be an AI genius like lisis to have this tactic used for yourself digital products can simply be a recording of you teaching somebody something specific that solves a problem this can be recorded on a presentation split up into modules and then thrown up on something like kajabi or gumroad Word of Mouth travels fast so if you can focus on your product instead of any growth tactics then that can be an amazing way to grow your account seeing Lewis's recent growth has shown me that social media isn't your

business your business is your business so make sure you focus on the product that you're selling so if you focus on getting an amazing product out there first then social media growth can happen as a result of the value that you bring for a different reason so there you have here three not so small creators giving you three pretty useful lessons that you can use in your own ex growth Journey growing as a Creator on X is a NeverEnding game of acquiring and applying skills now these may be three influential tactics that you can use

for yourself but they're pretty useless if you do not know the skill of copyrighting and that is why this is the video that you want to watch next because in there I'm going to show you exactly how to do it
