"Having a niche as a content creator is very important. Social media sites like X will group you and recommend your posts based on your niche and "topic". I chose AI and tech as I'm currently working full time on both," he wrote.
Other strategies Mark employed include creating quality content, staying consistent, being original, and following trends.
About following what's trending, he advised:
"X / Twitter has always been the place where trending and breaking news happens. Following the trends in your niche and finding interesting things to talk about are very important..."

@LinusEkenstam said:
"I’d say it’s not a flat CPM model at all.
"Depending on your content, replies and type of niche you seem to be getting very different pay.
"I got $.002 for example, so twice that of you.
"Until X is transparent about things, we should guess less."

"Great post! Have heard replies are starting to get boosted now more as well?"
