WHY MOST PEOPLE FAIL AT BUILDING AN AUDIENCE ON X AND HOW TO FIX IT
You’re not shadowbanned. You’re just boring.
Here’s why most people fail at building on X (and how to actually fix it):
🧵👇
Let’s be real —
You're posting every day.
You're using hashtags.
You're grinding replies.
Yet your growth is flat.
It’s not the algo.
It’s your approach.
Problem #1: No identity.
People can’t tell what you’re about at a glance.
You’re talking about crypto today, productivity tomorrow, and coffee the next.
Nobody follows confusion.
💡 Pick a lane. Own it. Dominate it.
Problem #2: No edge.
You’re saying what everyone else is saying.
In the same way.
With the same words.
Why would someone follow another vanilla copycat?
💡 Add personality. Have takes. Risk disagreement. That’s how you stand out.
Problem #3: You’re tweeting. Not communicating.
There’s a difference.
People don’t want perfect.
They want relatable, vulnerable, real.
💡 Show your Ls. Share lessons. Start convos, not lectures.
Problem #4: No hooks.
You have 1 second to stop the scroll.
If your first line is weak, they’re gone.
💡 Start strong. Ask a bold question. Make a crazy statement. Trigger curiosity.
Problem #5: You never leave your room.
You’re posting... but never commenting. Never DMing. Never engaging.
Nobody will find you if you hide.
💡 10 solid comments/day > 10 mid tweets/day.
Problem #6: You quit too early.
You post for 3 weeks.
Get no likes.
Then ghost.
But the compound effect is invisible at first.
💡 The ones who win are the ones who stayed consistent past the cringe phase.
If you made it here, you’re already 1% ahead.
Most won’t fix any of this.
But if you do, growth isn’t a matter of if, it’s just a matter of when.
