Ask HN: What are startups doing about twitters $1k/mth charge to advertise?
The startups I advise are getting messages from twitter that they can no longer advertise unless they go through the twitter verification program. Originally it was just twitter blue that was required ($8/mth), but now it seems that twitter requires all advertisers to go through full verification. This is $1,000/mth - I'm wondering if other startups are paying it, or if you're no longer advertising on twitter?
- cpach 3y agoEven before Musk, did Twitter ads have good conversion rates? I mean Twitter was always much smaller than Instagram and Facebook for example.
- neom 3y agoI've found twitter to be far the best platform to advertise on, 85% of their userbase access the site from the mobile app, so no ad blockers, and the twitter ad platform targeting tools are far more refined than what the meta as platform gives you.
- leros 3y agoI didn't use Twitter advertising that much but it's been so much less effective for me recently that I stopped using it. I'm curious what other people's experiences are.
