Yeah exactly, I don't pay attention to exact numbers. I usually do some actions in between tedious tasks.
I'll simply be at my desk watching some YouTube and passively scrolling X and replying to what I can speak on. I only follow people that are also replying under other people's posts.
I did try and follow people doing a similar strategy but I realized this isn't a smart play and to just focus on 'normal' people commenting on big posts in my niche

Update 3 – April 2
Didn't do any follows last 24hr block or so. I left the account to rest all of yesterday. Interestingly, about 15 minutes before writing this I opened the account to scroll a bit and do some actions and when bookmarking a tweet I got hit with an email verification lock.
The account was locked unless I could put the email 2fa in. This was weird, I think that fucker Grok is snitching!
Anyways - I entered the code and the account unlocked.
Over the next few days I plan to get a proper structure and dedicated work flow for account 2,3,4 and more. I'm happy with how Account 1 handled it's first week. Week 2 of this account I want to focus on building that follower count up.
I reached out to a few pages in my niche that post similar content (some smaller than mine in terms of reach) - no responses.
Come to think of it, I wonder if this locked my account. Maybe week old accounts don't DM people asking to join group chat haha.
Account 2 and the rest I'm going to experiment on different setups. I have an old iPhone 11 going to put a sim+account in that, I don't think anti detect browsers will work for X. As we can see from https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/x-is-rolling-out-more-detection-for-automation-spam.1793811/ this thread.
Phones will be expensive to maintain and Grok is pretty adamant about only 1 account per phone per sim which seems overly excessive but could be the way X is headed. I also think there's a limiting feature of Android on X or my base model Motorola just sucks.
See you soon!

Hi mate - I too am new to this journey and have documented each and every step but in summary since we aren't that far in yet
Get a clean phone with a sim plan
Using 4g connection ONLY (unless you haven't made too many on your home wifi) create the account
Warm up the account for a day or so and then buy premium for it
Post high value, reply to big accounts that just posted with VALUE.
Keep an eye on the journey as I am now up to where you will be up to in a week or so.

good luck with your journey! I think the accounts take time to build up... the next post will be slightly better than the one before. so most the traffic would go to existing accounts. but thats for Facebook and Instagram. X might be different

Okay, so like, using grok to make money on X and build an "ad farm" sounds kinda wild, especially since grok already told you Premium is totally essential for visibility, which is, like, a huge hurdle from the jump. You're gonna need way more than two phone accounts and some greyhat tips to really make that ad revenue hit different

Happy Easter to those celebrating! Update 4 is here.
Continuing on from last update you can see I made the below claims
While I only managed to get 1 other account live (iphone 11) I am happy with the progress. No matter what I do, I can't get rid of the "connected via web" on the accounts. Very very annoying but hopefully it doesn't weigh anything for the algo.
I want to get Account 1 total impressions to 100K+
I want to get Account 2 total impressions to 100K+
Before I add Account 3 & 4. I will do this so that growing the third and fourth account becomes a lot easier with two accounts I can use to help boost. Also, I need the 2 other devices for other projects that can't really clash with my X project.
This is actually something I overlooked initially so will have to find a work around for this. I am thinking of just keeping the 2 accounts I have now for as long as I can figure out how to safely add accounts 3 and 4 into the mix without clashing with my existing projects.
Basically - I need more devices. Might go with cheap iPhones, really want to see "Connected via Australian App Store" on profile information - I was hoping my iphone 11 would show this but nope.
Oh also, Account 2 is on my MAC which makes it easier to use and post shit on. Account 1 is exclusively on the Motorola and it lags a lot but it's doing the best so can't complain there.
I think for the upcoming week I need to figure out my posting style for actual profile tweets. Replies are great and all but leeching off big accounts can only work for so long as a main strategy.
Account 1 is more of an authoritative approach where as Account 2 is more of a commentary approach. Hope that makes sense, account 2 will be easier to post on as I can say whatever tf I want and blame it on "branding". Account 1 is a bit harder to find a unique approach to facts.
I need to be able to download media (photos, vids) from other accounts that already posted it and then add my own thoughts on top. I don't want it to say "reposted from blahblah", it should look like my own originally posted media. Of course I can use a generic X video downloader but this is slow and shit especially on this Motorola lol. I really don't like the moto.
Account 1 statistics below - massive breakout
Account 2 statistics below - insane unexpected growth here, exactly 1 follower a day.

apologies for the bump but a few minutes after my post - I’ve hit a viral reply.
20k views in 90minutes
50 reposts
400 likes
All from a simple reply on a recent post under a big account.
I took the momentum and replied to MORE posts which are having their own mini breakouts.
I’m also following every blue tick account that’s interacting with my replies (gotta be careful not to get limited with this)
how will you fulfil these requirements:

Nah, no website. I think the competition for a website is way too hard with my niche. Monetizing will be simply through X ad revenue, I'm confident with enough impressions + volume, revenue will be sufficient.
Right now, I am struggling a bit with actual tweets. Replies are good and no intention of slowing down but yeah, something up with my tweets low views 0-100 on all tweets.
In the future, maybe a newsletter or some other funnel but no website.
Thank you!! will you be joining along or just following
500 premium followers shouldn't be that bad, will be a grind of course. I think through follow unfollow methods I can get followers fast
Also, depending on how things go with SMM Panels as I know the people operating them are struggling with X at the moment. 20-50 blue tick followers won't hurt?
Once I get 3 accounts rolling at a similar pace as account 1, boosting each account privately amongst myself will become easier. Then I will have a very mini SMM panel.
I was following anyone that was interacting with my replies under big accounts. This wasn't really working so just today actually, I changed to following OTHER "reply guys".
I unfollow them quickly after, some notice some don't who cares.
5M impressions I can hopefully just force my way in through replies. Each reply I get is around 1-20k views and I aim to post around 20-30 replies a day.
When I reply, I wait around 60s before going on my other phones, finding the tweet naturally through scrolling, going to comments and liking my own comment.
On new tweets the highest liked replies get pushed to the top, from what I have seen.
--
Since I went on another one of my rants above, may as well turn it into another update while I'm here.
Not much changed, replying and posting. My tweets are shadow banned or just suck, averaging 1-100 views on tweets. Might have to stick to just replying for longer than I thought.
As expected, US, AUS dominate. India close third which I think is just other reply guys on the grind, need to be careful I really want strong Tier 1 countries if I want strong X ad rewards.
Account 2 I paused for a bit, really want to nail account 1 growth first. I relate it to gaming or League, I'm trying to learn 2 different champions at the same time, in bronze.
The correct strategy for main games (and social media) is focus on one champion or account and master it. Then introduce new accounts, I got a bit excited and wanted to get both live which caused inconsistent posting across both.
Account 2 will just be slow and steady, most time will be spent on account 1 at least for next 1-2weeks
ExactlyI think it would be interesting if you do buy the premium subscription for one of the accounts and leave the other one on the free tier so we can see the actual difference in results
