This is so true not failures like Emefiele Ngige Onu n co


Mitsurugi:
It's fair, these verified users especially the influencers make a load of money.


People like Elon Musk are the reason I believe only successful businessmen should rule Nigeria and permeate its National Assembly. This is how a nation prospers.

When I said Elon musk taking over Twitter isn’t a good idea because I was sure he would MONETIZE it as a business man, and that exactly what’s happening.

That's because you don't make money from it.

Facebook has over 2.3 active monthly users.

Where on earth do you expect to get that sort of exposure other than promoting your business to the global community?
Promotion is different.

What he mean is like paying money just to verify.
Re: Twitter To Start Charging Verified Users $20 Monthly by matrixme(m): 8:36am On Oct 31, 2022
Omo, see beta business strategy! Opens the door, charge people almost nothing to enter, then they get high inside and can't leave, then pay higher to remain inside. If you want a free verified status, go to Koo. If it is still up and running, that is. Let your fans follow you there.
Seun are you thinking what I'm thinking? Sell Nairaland for me now pls. All these tribal bigots and insultive posts will come at a heavy cost. I won't even ban anybody. To post memes lasan, is 200 naira.

Good a real businessman is in charge now not all those political activists that were running the company previously. A company that has never turned a profit in over 16 years of existence. That’s ridiculous.

It may be a bad decision in the long run. Hope he doesn't loose it all while trying to get more. Many great industries fell down due to poor management decisions.

This is what Seun ought to have done on Nairaland.


Monetize front page such that only paid posts and highly relevant posts hits the front page.


Then start a verified account on Nairaland too, and then make the verified users pay a certain year subscription and then add some benefits like:


verified users will qualify to have at least 5 of their threads on front page every month. So it is left for the verified user to submit his most relevant threads to the mods to the screen and select one to be pushed to the front page every week. Do this and watch throlls reduce on Nairaland.


Also verified users will have direct access to private message any member or mod directly without waiting for them to respond to their PM request.



Verified users must have their full details submitted and verified by Nairaland admins before an account can be verified.



Cc: Seun reach out to me let me share more monetization tips to you if interested

It shouldn't be a problem for influencers with some revenue.

You're right! Some people want to be in their own class. I remember how elitist people were with Mobile Networks back in the day. Now, whatever network you use don't matter anymore.

Blue Twitter....

He is a good businessman, been the world richest didn't come by speculation rather by taking good decision and churning out quality products. I would do the same If i where in his shoes. Atleast the blue mark should be accessible to all that have contents and are sure of what they want not just for some yeyebrities that abuse it. I waited for years for that to happen even though I merited it. Atleast this will eliminate delay.

Life is in stages. $20 is just #16k per month. That money is nothing to people and organisations that have that verification mark.

If he could afford it, he would pay without complaining. Abraham Maslow calls it the Hierarchy of Needs.
