After spending some time on Twitter, I've finally seen through the "undisclosed" truth behind how those big influencers (Alibaba and Twitter's top accounts) started their accounts.
Why do some people tweet like they're waging war, while others effortlessly gain traffic? The answer is actually quite disheartening: because they all have a "mutual support foundation" behind them.
The so-called "truth about starting an account" boils down to three points:
Seed followers aren't something you wait for: Almost all big influencers gained their first 500 followers through frequent mutual following and community exchanges.
Weight is borrowed: Twitter's algorithm has a "linked recommendation" feature. When you mutually follow a large number of high-authority accounts, the system automatically labels you as a "high-quality node."
Teamwork is the only way out: The era of going it alone is long gone.
