Growth strategy for 2025 — Threads or viral posts?

[Broderick Charley]

I see some users growing fast using long Threads, others post viral-style memes. What’s working better for follower growth this year?

Weird question. Pick a niche, post a lot. Memes are much more sharable than other types of posts but also much harder to monetize.

Both work, just in different ways, memes help you get seen fast, while threads build real connection, a mix of both seems to work best lately.

I think threads drive steady long term growth while viral posts give short bursts.

Viral posts drive faster reach, but threads build deeper engagement and long-term growth in 2025.

Threads help build long-term trust and authority, while memes bring faster reach and engagement. Both work -it really depends on whether you’re optimizing for growth or credibility

Long threads are better for sustained growth and engagement this year. They build authority and keep followers engaged. Memes work fast for viral reach but don’t build long-term loyalty. Use both, but focus more on threads for growth.

I’ve seen short, punchy threads with strong hooks perform better lately people want value fast. Memes are great for reach, but threads turn views into actual followers.
