Post your drawing on X, then wait for people to Heart or Repost your shit.

>>7885976
My account's still small, but I notice that drawings I post in off-site algorithm-free places (discord, reddit, 4chan) get more attention than just hoping the algorithm will pick you up

>>7885976
fan art of popular artists into drawing popular thing. Post your art on popular thing subreddit

>>7885976
>How do you grow your account on x as an artist?
Why is X used by so many? I thought Insta was the shit then they capped tags. What the fuck??

If you drew a fraction of the time you spend making these threads you would stop making these threads.

>>7885976
Elon turned it into pay to win. You need a checkmark to get really noticed. Or you need to attention whore and do fan art or whatever

>>7885989
>they capped tags.
wut

>>7886016
Instagram used to allow 20-30 tags now it allows like 5

focus on improving your craft first. followers will come with time.

>>7886046
This. Just keep drawing and keep posting and results will come

You draw fanart and use tags. Even fresh accounts will appear in the Recommended feed.
Ask someone with a lot of followers for a retweet.
Lots of artists will retweet beginners to help them.

literal pixiv clone

it's called twitter chud

Pander. If your practice and sketches are impressive post those as well.

Draw what you enjoy. Use tags. Patience.

nta but how much of a factor is post frequency, as of right now I only draw once every few days so i only have something i'm happy with uploading every week or so

>>7886112
Very important. You need to post daily.

I saw new japanese account posting untagged beg gacha girl in a void getting thousands of likes

>>7886088
how do i know if my sketches are impressive?

>>7886151
>popular thing get popular likes
woah

unironically buy the blue checkmark. your posts don't get pushed unless you do.

>>7885976
By not drawing bad
Only /pros/ get recommended by the algorithm, not filthy permabegs
Git gud, faggatron

I see posts with almost no likes all the time. No tags. No blue checkmarks. Accounts with less than 100 followers who post fanart that interests me.

>>7886112
starting out frequency is key

I've been posting weekly since 2021 and I'm still in sub 100 followers hell

1. post consistently, at least once a week, ideally more.
2. draw amazing things (hardest part)
that's it. If people see your art and don't retweet it, then it wasn't good enough. End of story.

>>7885976
Do tags work? How do you get stuff in people's feed?

>>7886275
and u didnt link ur name here

>>7885976
Being good helps

>>7885976
Retweet bigger artists, or quote tweet their posts with a relevant drawing.
Don't overuse tags, or even the "#". If you have a drawing related to something trending, just fit the term into your posts naturally.
Example:
> "Pikachu" is trending
> Your post: "I drew Pikachu."
If you are going to use a hashtag, use "#artmoots". Not as effective as it used to be, but it still works for gaining prospective followers.
Lastly, keep the account active, post about your art frequently, and avoid filling your media page with reaction gifs or non-art related content.

Be japanese and draw kawaii uguu slop. Thats the only thing normies consume on there

>>7885976
Just say "Please like, follow and subscribe, and remember to click on the little bell icon for future updates. Bro Fist!" on every post.

>x
Is elon actually getting people to call it that? I can't believe this shitty rebrand is beginning to work. Twitter has always been shit, but it had fantastic branding for what it was, and now look at it's logo. It's shit! It's looks like they got some cheap, free of the web font, and simply hit the 'x' key... Not that there was much that could be done with a company name as lousy as fucking "X".

>>7886951
X is better because it caters to lazy people that don’t want to type the full name. It’s the shortest name for a social media app making it more appealing to talk about s

>>7887003
First X, now s?? When is this bullshit going to end?

>>7886951
Stop dead naming that's transphobic.

>>7887012
When E is added to the equation, pfft.

>>7885976
Man, fuck the internet, there was a time when all you had to do was suck some cocks to become successful in art.

Just curious, how much money does a single letter website name cost?

>post frequently
>draw OK
>hope a bigger account retweets your art at the right time
Twitter is a popularity contest, so getting the blessing and visibility of a larger account helps, and the more followers you get, the easier it is to get more followers, both due to larger reach and due to people being less inclined to follow accounts with low follower numbers.
Short of buying bots or having an e-friend with a big account who constantly pumps up your shit, there really isn't much you can do beyond posting regularly, posting what people want to see, and drawing well. My art does awful on Twitter, though it does OK on Pixiv and consistently gets booru scores on-par with or better than artists with many times my follower counts.

>>7887140
What websites have an algorithm that actually push small accounts? Twitter's seems more biased than average toward big accounts

>>7887319
Twitter does promote new and small artists on my dashboard. The algorithm is quick to notice what you are interested in and then it will spam it.

I made my account a month ago and i've not posted anything on it, do i get a visibility boost if i make another fresh account or do i just stay using my current account?

>>7887878
well, since you made your account is newly made. You will have to start posting or interacting with posts immediately or you're considered a bot a account thanks to musk.

>>7887898
death to lurker bot accounts

its called SOCIAL media for a reason!

>>7887902
this but /here/

>>7885976
I can't stand social media anymore. It's all so shit filled with the mentally ill hippies.

>>7886879
>use #artmoots
Never use this cesspit of a hashtag unless you want the most insufferable narcissistic people to follow you. Literally the worst possible hashtag to ever use.

I guess I can ask here. I know
>clicking "See less often" or muting
>having bots in the replies
reduces visibility but if I use my account with 3 likely bot followers and I retweet a post does that hit their visibility too?
