In our previous posts, we talked about how to get up to 5 million impressions on X (Twitter), which is one of the requirements for twitter ad revenue share. But here, we will be explaining all the requirements you need to meet, for twitter to start paying you for impressions on your posts.
What is X ( Twitter) Ad Revenue Share All About?
Twitter ad revenue share is a new monetization program on twitter, whereby the platform pays share of the money generated from advertisements, to eligible creators.
Twitter generates most of its revenue from the paid advertisements that people, businesses or brands run on the platform. According to BusinessOfApps, Twitter generated about $4.4 billion revenue in 2022, of which 90% of the revenue came from paid advertisements.
So, as a way to appreciate and encourage creators on the platform for keeping the platform lively, Twitter has decided to pay a share of the ad revenue to every creator that meets the earning requirements. And the requirements are what we shall be explaining in this article.
