If You’re Struggling to Grow on X, This Is Why

I put in thousands of hours just to reach 227 followers.

I tweeted every day. I engaged with big accounts. I followed all the “growth hacks.”

And for what? Barely any growth.

• My tweets got no traction.

• My follower count moved slower than a turtle.

• It felt like I was invisible—no one even knew I existed.

At one point, I actually thought:

"Maybe I’m just not meant to grow on X."

But then I realized something.

The problem wasn’t me—it was what I was doing.

The Worst Advice That Keeps Most Accounts Small

I wasted months trying to grow the “recommended way.”

And the biggest mistake?

Being a reply guy.

• I spent hours replying to big accounts, hoping to get noticed.

• I tried to “add value” in the comments.

• I hoped that if I kept showing up, people would eventually follow me.

It never worked.

And it never will.

Here’s why:

• Nobody follows reply guys. People might like your comment, but they won’t check out your profile.

• You’re building someone else’s brand, not yours. Every time you reply, you’re feeding their account—not your own.

• Your tweets are what matter. If you don’t focus on making your own tweets great, you’ll always struggle to grow.

The moment I stopped focusing on other people’s tweets and started optimizing my own tweets and profile, everything changed.

The Shift That Took Me From 227 Followers to 1K+ in 3 Days

I stopped replying and started writing tweets that could go viral.

Here’s exactly what I did:

• I studied what actually worked.

  • I scrolled through accounts I liked and checked their average tweet views (let’s say 10K).

  • Then, I looked for outliers—tweets that randomly hit 50K+ impressions.

  • That tweet clearly did something right, so I built on that topic.

• I made my tweets visually appealing and easy to read.

  • I focused on structure, spacing, and clarity to make tweets enjoyable to read.

  • If a tweet is hard to read, it won’t go viral—simple as that.

• I optimized my profile for conversions.

  • I fixed my bio, pinned tweet, and profile pic to instantly grab attention.

  • When people landed on my profile, they didn’t just scroll away—they followed.

The Results?

• I added 1,000+ followers in just 3 days.

• Since my last email on Wednesday, I’ve added another 1K followers.

• This isn’t some theory or fluff.

• This isn’t guesswork.

This is exactly what I’m doing live, before your eyes.

And if you’re serious about finally growing, you can start doing the same today.
