Elon Musk will share Twitter ad revenue — but only with creators who pay for Twitter Blue

https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/3/23...-creators-blue

Elon Musk says that Twitter will start sharing revenue from reply-thread ads with creators who are subscribed to Twitter Blue Verified. (According to Musk, “legacy” verified marks will be going away in “a few months.”) He says the program will start today, though there are currently very few details about how it will work.

Currently, subscribing to Blue will cost you $8 per month if acquired directly via its site or $11 per month from Apple’s App Store or Google Play, but the cheapest version is an annual subscription directly from Twitter for $84. It’s unclear how many viral tweets it would take to pay that off, but it could be difficult given Twitter’s rocky relationship with advertisers right now.

So you have to pay to get ad revenue from contest you post on Twitter, with Twitter's ad revenue down by about 42%

And with Twitter now charging developers for API access, we'll see how that works out.

Trying hard to get people to buy Twitter blue. It might work.
Many details to be determined though.
