Many Twitter X creators hit this wall:
Impressions climb
Payouts fall
We worked with X creators (including a global public figure) to test what X actually rewards.
Here’s the field-tested 14-day plan:
The Problem
Twitter X Impressions don’t equal income.
X only pays for eligible, high-quality attention.
If your X Twitter engagement rate sinks, RPM sinks , no matter how many followers you have.

Earning from X is easy if you follow the steps below:
Step 1: Resurface Content (Auto-RT cadence)
Why: Tweets decay fast. Median lifespan is ~12 minutes. 80% of your audience never sees them.
What we did: Scheduled 3–5 retweets of each post at staggered times.
Benefit: 3–5× impressions from the same content, without spam. Each RT reached a fresh slice of audience.
How with Circleboom: We used Circleboom Auto-Retweet with 3 cycles, each cycle 45 minutes apart. That means:
- Tweet scheduled in Circleboom X Post Planner + Ai Writer
- Circleboom automatically retweets, un-retweets, then retweets again in cycles
- Followers who missed the post the first time see it later
Doing this manually on Twitter is almost impossible. Circleboom, as an official X Enterprise Developer Client, makes it automated and efficient.
Step 2: Timing (Post when followers are online)
Why: X rewards early engagement velocity. Posts that get traction in the first 10–15 minutes are pushed further.
What we did: Mapped when followers were active → posted in those exact windows.
Benefit: Higher initial CTR & ER → algorithm boosted reach.
How with Circleboom: Circleboom X Account Analytics shows exactly when your followers are online. We calculate this by checking when each follower actually tweets : not just broad statistics.
You can then set a posting queue once, and every new tweet is automatically scheduled at optimal times.
This feature isn’t available on X itself. As an official Enterprise Developer, Circleboom has access to more API endpoints than standard tools.
Step 3: Target Loyal Advocates
Why: Repeat engagers (retweeters/quoters) amplify your reach far more than casual followers.
What we did: Built a custom audience of these “brand advocates” → ran micro Twitter Ads to guarantee they saw posts.
Benefit: 5–10× impressions at minimal spend. Advocates became a free distribution engine.
How with Circleboom: We identify your brand advocates by scanning all your tweets and fetching the accounts who repeatedly retweet and engage. Concentrating on them delivers higher-quality amplification.
For our client, we then ran hyper-targeted Twitter Ads to those advocates with a very low budget , because the targeting was so precise, the spend stayed minimal, and results were exponential.
Step 4: Clean Your Audience
Why: Twitter Bots, locked & inactive accounts lower your active ratio. This dilutes payouts. If you have many followers but low engagement, your ratio drops and so does monetization.
What we did: Removed dead weight, bot accounts. Focused on engaged or active followers only.
Benefit: RPM rose. Monetization matched real reach.
How with Circleboom: We used Circleboom’s Mass Remove Followers tool, plus bot detection. Inactive accounts (not tweeting for a long time) and fake/bot followers were removed. This improved the engagement rate immediately.
Step 5: Reshare Winners (Content Packaging)
Why: X’s algorithm rewards consistent value, not duplicate spam.
What we did: Weekly analysis of top tweets → reshared only the best performers with caps, avoided over-automation.
Benefit: Extended the life of proven content without risking throttling.
How with Circleboom: Circleboom Post Analytics shows your top-performing tweets and detailed engagement data. Instead of copy-pasting, we set Auto-RT or regenerated content with Circleboom’s AI. Then we rescheduled them at the best follower times. This ensured missed followers got a second chance to engage.
The Results
- Follower count dropped (after removing dead weight) but, in return;
- Engagement rate increased by 55%
- Payouts rose
- Impressions increased by 280% ( Auto-RT is life-saving)
- Monetization finally tracked true reach
Your 14-Day Implementation Plan
- Day 1–3 → Audit followers
- Day 4–6 → Map timing
- Day 7–9 → Add resurfacing ( Start to use Auto-Rt on Circleboom)
- Day 10–12 → Build advocate engine ( Check Engaging Followers on Circleboom)
- Day 13–14 → Rewrite hooks & package content
Repeat every two weeks.
👉 If you’re stuck with record impressions but shrinking payouts:
You don’t need more posts.
You need more eligible attention.
Circleboom gives creators the advanced tools to make it happen.
Happy Circlebooming :).
