Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Content creators on Twitter have a reason to smile as they will soon start smiling all the way to the bank courtesy of their creativity.<\/p>\n

Twitter CEO Elon Musk on Friday announced that content creators will get a share of revenue for ads that appear in their reply threads.<\/p>\n

“Starting today, Twitter will share ad revenue with creators for ads that appear in their reply threads,” Musk said in a statement on Twitter.<\/p>\n

This therefore means content creators whose threads attract most ads on the replies will earn big.<\/p>\n

“To be eligible, the account must be a subscriber to Twitter Blue Verified,” Musk said.<\/p>\n

In retrospect, this could also be Musk’s marketing strategy considering users must now pay for Twitter Blue verification.<\/p>\n

Consumer Federation of Kenya secretary general Stephen Mutoro was among notable Kenyans who welcomed the new development.<\/p>\n

And like many Twitter users, he also wondered what percentage of the revenue creators will be entitled to.<\/p>\n

“That is a good idea. It’s the bit on sharing ratio and frequency that is unclear,” Mutoro said.<\/p>\n

In response, Musk said, “More to come on this front. Twitter needs to be where a creator is most highly rewarded for their time and talent.”<\/p>\n
