My tweets are getting like 100-300 impressions which feels really low. i have 450 followers so i thought my reach would be better

Is there something i'm doing wrong? how do i get my tweets shown to more people?

You're thinking about this wrong. stop focusing on your own tweets and start replying to bigger accounts

I grew from 300 to 3,000 followers in 6 months mostly through strategic replies, not original tweets

here's the strategy:
- find accounts with 10k-100k followers in your niche
- turn on notifications for when they tweet
- be one of the first to reply with something insightful (not just "great post!")
- people will see your reply, check your profile, and follow if they like what they see

my best performing replies:
- adding additional context or a different perspective
- sharing a personal experience related to their tweet
- asking a thoughtful follow-up question

this gets your tweets in front of thousands of people who are already interested in your niche. way more effective than tweeting into the void hoping your 450 followers will engage

once you build to 2k+ followers, then focus more on original content. but early on, strategic engagement is the fastest growth hack

100-300 impressions with 450 followers is actually normal if your engagement rate is low

twitter shows your tweets to a small portion of your followers first. if they engage, it shows it to more people. if they don't, it stops pushing it

here's what increased my impressions:
- asking questions in my tweets (drives replies which boosts reach)
- using line breaks to make tweets easier to read
- tweeting controversial opinions (carefully - don't be offensive just for engagement)
- replying to my own tweets to add context or additional thoughts
- quote tweeting trending topics with my take

i went from 200 average impressions to 2,000+ by focusing on tweets that create conversation

also engagement rate matters more than follower count. 450 engaged followers beats 4,500 inactive followers. focus on attracting the right audience, not just any audience

types of tweets that get high impressions:
- threads with valuable info
- hot takes on industry news
- personal stories with lessons
- questions that invite responses
- memes/humor (if it fits your brand)
