How to Make Money With X / Twitter

August 16, 2023

X (otherwise known as Twitter) has started paying creators a share of the ad revenue.

Paul Couvert (163k followers) just got a tidy $2.1k deposited into his account for a month of tweeting.

Rob Freund has less than 8,000 followers and got paid $291.

Elon Musk’s theory is that if you pay content creators, they are incentivized to keep sharing their best content on the platform. The better the content on the platform, the more people will use it. It’s how YouTube has incentivized content creators for years.

Here’s the upshot: it’s now possible for content creators to make money on X. In this article, you’ll find out how you can earn a bit of extra cash by writing Tweets.

I’ll also share 10 ideas for niche pages you could start today (and how you can use AI to speed up content creation).

Who is eligible for the revenue share program?

To make money writing Tweets, you need to meet the following criteria:

  • A subscription to X Premium (Twitter Blue)
  • Have at least 500 followers
  • Have at least 5M organic impressions on your cumulative posts within the last 3 months.

The requirements are steep, but achievable with the right level of dedication, creativity, and consistency.

Should I use my personal X/Twitter account?

If you want to make money on X, you’ll need to decide what kind of account you want to grow. You have two options:

1. Your personal X account

If you’re already a content creator, then growing your personal X account is a great idea.

Roberto Blake is a YouTuber and he considers payments from X as “complementary” to his YouTube channel. He got paid $300 last month, and can easily see this growing to $1k per month if he posts more regularly.

Content creators are now, essentially, getting paid to grow their personal brands. Can’t complain!

2. An anonymous niche channel aiming for virality

X/Twitter pays its creators based on the number of impressions they get for their Tweets over the month. So, another option is to build a page that is optimized for making content that will go viral.

10 X/Twitter Page Account Ideas (Using AI)

The best part is that you can use AI tools to help you make content at an unprecedented scale and speed. Here are a 10 ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

Health and fitness niche

  • AI-generated workout routines: Use AI to generate custom workout routines based on user inputs like goals, fitness levels, and available equipment. Share these on Twitter as weekly challenges.
  • Mental health moments: Address the mental aspect of health and fitness by sharing relaxation techniques, stress-relief exercises, or the psychological benefits of physical activity.

Travel and Adventure

  • Travel itinerary generator: Use AI to suggest optimal travel routes and places to visit based on user preferences. Share these itineraries with beautiful visuals on Twitter.
  • Virtual tours with Google Earth: Use Google Earth’s detailed imagery to take followers on virtual tours of undiscovered or remote places around the globe. Every week, pick a location that’s less traveled or understood and showcase its natural beauty, historical sites, or unique geographical features.

Personal Development

  • AI book summaries: Summarize self-help and personal development books using AI and share key takeaways as Twitter threads.
  • Daily affirmations with AI: Share a daily positive affirmation generated by AI based on popular self-help themes. Use an AI tool to generate and rotate various affirmations that resonate with most audiences.

Arts and Culture

  • Art evolution over time: Showcase how particular art styles have evolved over the years. Use AI to sort artworks from various eras and demonstrate the progression in a visually appealing way.
  • Cultural festivals around the world: Highlight different festivals from cultures worldwide, sharing their significance and traditions. Use AI tools to generate threads and short, engaging animations or visuals illustrating each festival’s key elements.

Business and Entrepreneurship

  • AI-generated business ideas: Share unique business ideas or problem statements generated by AI, sparking discussions or challenges.
