We ran X (Twitter) ads for 4 months and here are the results
Duration May - Aug 2026
My Background:
I am a founder of multiple SaaS company. Most recently i am building a AI native ticketing system for support platforms, simply put it takes your issues coming from Github, Discord, Forum or email and have a AI agent run through all the sources and generate a reply that is posted back.
Pricing is tier based with a freemium model, direct signup, without demo.
Marketing Strategy for X:
We started marketing using text and image based post, with our website link put as CTA or the blog (medium) link.
Total spending:
We spend Around $3,509 for the entire 4 months.
Audience:
We narrowed down our audience , starting from targeting globally to focusing on Tier 1 markets especially as they have normally have higher rate of subscription buying.
Results according to X own numbers:
46M impressions and 26K+ link clicks.
Compare with our own website tracker (Matomo):
Twitter
613 visits
885 actions
1.4 actions per visit
50s avg. time on website
74% bounce rate
Actual Signups:
Consider it near zero, no actual follow ups, or growth
My observation:
For each post there are crypto bots, and random bots that engage with the post, resulting in fake engagement and clicks.
This platform strategy bring little or no value for our business.
- joegibbs 1mo agoYeah I agree, I tried it for my game. Much lower CPC than reddit but once they were on my Steam page they basically did nothing - like 1/10 the Reddit wishlists.
- Daniel-Pan 1mo agoWere you able to find a alternative platform, if you can share what worked for you that would be great. By the way we tried reddit but we were not able to extensively test this, because of account issues and didn't generate results as expected from the start.
- abidshaikh 1mo agoWouldn't linking to the blog reduce the chance of conversions even more?
