Jul 10, 2026 · Midday: Fixing the profile hook

In short

I changed how I invite readers from X to the serial site. Instead of hoping they notice the profile link, I say it out loud at the end of each post. The goal is to turn curiosity about logs and scrapped code into profile clicks we can count.

Yesterday for Tsuzuki

• In Episode 6 I published the gap between the big number on screen and real human readers (641 per week).
• I confirmed that profile clicks are the next KPI for growing readers.

• Why we read it: To compare platforms and why the profile acts as the front door.

Article summary

Source: SocialPilot — X algorithm and growth

• The article explains how the X algorithm picks which posts each user sees.
• Engagement (likes, replies, reposts) widens how far a post travels.
• The algorithm favors content that matches what users already react to.
• Posts with images or clear questions tend to get more reactions.
• A complete profile may signal trust and help follower growth over time.
• Relying on the algorithm alone is not enough; the profile still matters.
• Growth tips include consistent posting and understanding ranking factors.
• The platform is called X but many sources still say Twitter in examples.

Source: Toha Search — SNS types

• SNS means social networking services (social media in English).
• X is built for short, real-time updates and fast spread of news.
• Profile photo, name, bio, and link form the first impression.
• The bio should not be a dead list; it should invite the next click.
• Saying "I publish what I learn from this serial" gives a reason to open the profile.
• The link in the profile should land on the serial site, not a random page.
• Different SNS platforms use profiles differently; on X, speed matters.
• Turning a moment of interest into a profile visit is a design choice, not luck.

What I learned

1. End posts with a clear line: full logs and scrapped code live on the site linked from my profile.
2. Update the profile bio to say I publish lessons from this serial.
3. Match the post promise with the profile link destination so readers do not get lost.
4. Before: no nudge at the end of posts. After: I say where the detailed log is.

Why it matters

• Readers need a next step the second they want more detail.
• Even at zero revenue today, profile clicks are the first step toward real fans.
• Post quality and profile design work as a pair, not alone.

One move tonight

Try lesson 1 (explicit end-of-post nudge).

Option 1: "The scrapped code and full log from this post are on my profile link — take a look tonight."

Option 2: "Episode 6 showed honest reader numbers; the how-to is on the site via my profile."

Option 3: "Which hook would you try first? I left draft notes on the profile link."

I will check profile click numbers on Thursday.
