@NFTNics 1️⃣ Be different

When someone's content works, it’s easy to assume that doing the same thing will bring us the same results.

There is one problem though: you can't make a viral thread if 10 people have already posted a slightly different version of the same thread.

@NFTNics It’s important to approach your thread with a unique vision.

This is what @NFTNics did with his viral thread on OpenSea Pro.

Many 'OpenSea Pro vs. Blur' threads had been written but this one offered a different perspective: how to actually make money.

@NFTNics 2️⃣ The structure

Your thread should be different but consistent.

So what does that mean?

List the biggest wants and problems of your target audience.

- A
- B
- C
- D

Answer one of these desires or problems in your thread and highlight it with the hook 👇

@NFTNics 3️⃣ The hook

The hook is the second most important thing.

It has a massive impact and there is a way to write it that increases its power tenfold.

Make it so that readers can relate to the first sentence of your tweet.

@NFTNics A couple of hook templates you can use:

🔹 State what everyone else is thinking.
🔹 Talk about a very powerful problem or desire of your target audience.
🔹 Refer to the hype of the moment or current news cycle

@NFTNics This makes it much easier for you to retain your audience.

Taking Nics example: “Everyone is talking about OpenSea pro but no one is talking about how to make money with it”

Making money: desire of the target audience.

OpenSea pro: hype of the moment.

@NFTNics By riding the news cycle, the hype of the moment, you increase the potential virality of your thread by 10x.

Presenting the subject immediately in the first sentence of your hook catches the reader's attention immediately.

They're hooked.

One of the most important things is to keep the audience entertained.

A great way to do this is to break up your text with

🔹 Graphics
🔹 Quoted tweets
🔹 Bullet points

The attention span is short and you have to retain it.

@NFTNics 5️⃣ Personality

It is important to give your text some personality. People don’t want to read AI-generated threads.

Instead try to add some humour (with GIFs for example), light comments and a personal touch to your thread.

You will be amazed by the results.
