If you check your analytics and click on Verified, you'll understand why you're getting Below Minimum Earnings (BME) or low payouts even when you have viral posts.
If X is actually paying only for views from verified users, then X must be one of the best-paying social media platforms.
Do you know you could get 5 million views in a day, yet only 50,000—or even just 5,000—of those views come from verified users?
That's why a post can go viral and still earn little or nothing.
Check your verified impressions, and you'll understand why you're seeing BME or low earnings.
Facts you should know:
• A viral post does not automatically mean a big payout.
• You can get 15 million views in a day and still earn very little if only a small fraction of those viewers are verified users.
• X has far more unverified users than verified users, so total impressions and monetizable impressions are not the same thing.
• What matters is not just how many people see your post, but who is seeing it.
• A post with 200,000 views from highly engaged verified users will earn more than a post with millions of views from mostly unverified users.
• Stop judging your earnings by total views alone. Pay closer attention to your verified impressions...
