Ive had my blu check for a whole month now and I wanted to share a bit of my experience lately. I was never a big Twitter user, posting basically to fulfil the Hive Twitter quota to showcase some activity there. After some time it becomes boring considering that you cant really leave the Hive echo chamber Twitter put us in and the box is sealed fairly well so rarely anything can escape either.
When Musk started selling the checkmark it opened an opportunity to actually having your tweets and responses escape the box.
Unleashing the Blu:
Its not a secret that a well timed response on a popular tweet can generate substantial views and engagement. However, having a verified account amplifies these benefits significantly. Any well timed response I would make on any general topic tweet got me 15k-50k views. A couple hundred profile visits.
Last month I got 200k impressions tweeting only every few days.
Last 2-3 days I got 100k impressions with a decent engagement rate.
The last time I was hitting these numbers was during the Hive/Justin drama at a time when all of CT was looking at what we were doing and we spent all day tweeting.
These numbers show me that there is an advantage that verified accounts possess on Twitter, where even minimal activity can yield significant exposure.
Considering the potential of the blu, there is an opportunity to strategically utilize it to expand the reach and influence of the Hive community. As with anything, a method needs to exist. We could develop a list of high engagement accounts outside crypto with Hive related topics, develop a strategy of indirect promotion, time them, buff the initial response via Hive followers on twitter and farm engagement on a continuous basis. Doesnt cost anything.
A target segment of potential users and investors doesnt need to be crypto related. We just need quality responses related to the topics discussed.
From there they are lead towards specific profiles and explore on their own.
Notice me senpai:
One of the advantages of this strategy is that the target segment for potential users and investors doesn't have to be limited to the crypto space. By participating in discussions outside the realm of cryptocurrency, we can attract a diverse audience. Again, timing and topic choice is key.
The results you will achieve often depend on you, the actual person behind the tweet. I do fairly well when it comes to drawing attention but my profile comes off as that of a typical "cryptobro". Having a potential hook beyond your response will affect engagement positively.
Plenty Hivers that are more interesting than I am.
