Twitter 'Super Follow' Soon Coming to the Social Media—Here's How it Works!

Twitter is debuting a service that lets users follow a certain influencer or celebrity that would only allow users to see exclusive and specific content if that fan or follower would pay for the subscription. The new Twitter feature is called "Super Follow" and it would resemble subscription services to access premium content and other features from the influencer.

The new feature from the short word social media platform is one of the first monetization schemes that would restrict users of content, and ask them to pay for it to be part of the clique and be updated.

While most social media platforms are free to use and access content, Twitter would be the first to make exclusive subscriptions to social networking.

More features are coming alongside the paid service from Twitter, and it includes Communities, which is the counterpart of Facebook Groups on the short word social media platform that unites under a certain topic. Moreover, a lot of people seem to agree with the Super Follow feature, despite having been blessed with content for free in the past.

Twitter Super Follow Coming Soon, Not Yet a Priority for Company

The Super Follow feature would be under the Community unification of Twitter which would ask subscribers for a certain fee (i.e. $4.99 a month) to get exclusive content from a specific user. The influencer or celebrity themselves would opt to apply for the service for a subscription function, or choose to remain as a free account that features the regular tweets, media, replies, and likes information.

However, the new feature would show exclusive content from the influencers and is said to be a massive help to these personalities, especially in boosting their revenue and monetization. Moreover, it would also have perks for both parties, both the User and the fans or followers that it would gather and invite to subscribe to the service.

While the service is not yet complete and is not yet final on what would be the inclusions, full extent, or subscription fee for the exclusive feature, it is also not yet coming says Twitter's executives. The news of the "Super Follow" function surfaced in Twitter's Analyst event and has been one of the massive takeaways from the social media event.

Twitter Super Follow: How it Works

Twitter's "Super Follow" is like the Patreon website's subscription service but is migrated into the social media platform and would be using the full suite of tools and features of the website.

Fans would soon have the choice to join this feature and be part of an exclusive community that would receive newsletters, and perks including fan badges, exclusive content, and other premium features that are offered by Twitter and its influencer.

Moreover, Super Follow would be separate from the regular tweets and functions of the social media, as it would allow several users to access never-before-seen content, in support of the topic or personality. Ideally, Twitter would be supporting its influencers and giving them more chances to prosper on the platform, aside from traditional methods.
