Under 100 followers in X/Twitter? Here's how I grew my account

Hey, it’s Yoav

I started 𝕏 in October 2024 with 0 followers. It took me less than 1 month to get the first 100 followers.

Here are the keys that works for me.

First, the basics:

• Use a real photo - people connect with people, not bots

• Be authentic in your bio

• Choose your niche (mine is #BuildInPublic)

The VALUE Strategy:

• Skip trying to go viral

• Look for conversations you can join

• Add meaningful insights

• Mix in some fun when appropriate

• Help solve problems when you can

Community is key:

• Join relevant communities (I'm in #BuildInPublic)

• Connect with people who share your interests

• Focus on two-way relationships

• Engage daily with your niche

Pro tip: Create a PRIVATE list

• Find accounts with 1K+ followers in your niche

• Add them to your list

• Focus on meaningful interactions with their content

• This keeps you focused on your target audience

Once you hit ~50 followers, here's the EXACT post format that worked for me:
