How I Grew My Twitter Account by 400% in 365 Days (Efficiently) as a Side-Hustler
The keyword is “efficiently”
I started my Twitter account in March of 2020, but I only started using it more regularly from August that year. Like many, I struggled with the blue-colored social media platform.
Why so? Because it is easy to construct a tweet but extremely difficult to gain traction.
Take a look at the following statistics to understand where I am coming from as a 0-follower account holder in 2020.
- There are 391 million accounts with zero followers on Twitter.
- There were 7,000 Tweets about TV or movies every minute in 2020.
- There were 2 billion Tweets about sports in 2020.
- Tweets about cooking increased nearly 300% in 2020.
Twitter is (extremely) competitive when it comes to building a following. It took me 4 months before that first person came to retweet and comment on my 2-line post.
Since then, I have changed how I use and engage with the platform. By the end of my first year on the platform, my follower count increased by 400% and more (from 10 to 420).
Let me share how I do it and what I (actually) do in this article.
