Master the language of X. Every term, metric, and concept you need to understand to grow your audience.
Poaster is an AI-powered content creation and scheduling platform for X creators that uses machine learning to analyze writing style, generate optimized content, and automate post scheduling.
X growth is the systematic process of increasing your followers, engagement, and influence on the X platform through strategic content and community engagement.
AI content generation uses artificial intelligence to create or assist in creating social media posts, threads, and other content based on prompts, patterns, and training data.
Engagement rate is the percentage of people who interact with your content (likes, replies, retweets, quotes) compared to how many saw it.
Impressions are the total number of times your post was displayed on someone's screen, including multiple views by the same person.
Reach is the number of unique accounts that saw your content, regardless of how many times they saw it.
X Analytics is the built-in dashboard showing your account's performance data, including impressions, engagement, follower growth, and audience demographics.
The X algorithm is the system that decides which posts appear in users' For You feeds, in what order, and how widely they're distributed.
The For You page is X's algorithmically curated main feed that shows content X thinks you'll find interesting, including posts from accounts you don't follow.
A shadowban is when X limits your content's visibility without notifying you, making your posts invisible to most users while you can still post normally.
Trending topics are subjects, hashtags, or phrases that are currently being discussed at higher-than-usual volume on X.
A thread is a series of connected posts from the same author, used to share longer-form content, stories, or detailed explanations.
A quote tweet (now called 'repost with comment' on X) is sharing someone else's post while adding your own commentary above it.
A hashtag is a word or phrase preceded by # that makes your post discoverable in searches for that topic.
A viral post is content that spreads rapidly beyond your existing audience, getting significantly more reach and engagement than your typical posts.
A follower is an account that has chosen to subscribe to your posts, meaning your content will appear in their Following feed.
The blue check is a verification badge on X, now available through X Premium subscription ($8/mo) rather than the previous invite-only legacy verification system.
Getting 'ratioed' means a reply to your post receives more likes/engagement than your original post, indicating disagreement or that the reply was better.
Understanding the terms is step one. Poaster helps you apply them with AI-powered tools for X growth.
