Before promoting, make sure your NFT stands out:

2. Use Twitter (X) to Build NFT Hype

Twitter is the #1 place for NFT buyers. Here’s how to use it:

🔥 Engage with big NFT accounts – Reply to their tweets, retweet valuable content.
🔥 Join Twitter Spaces – Talk about your project, network with collectors.
🔥 Pin your NFT listing – Keep your best tweet at the top of your profile.

🔹 r/NFTsMarket – Share and promote your NFTs.
🔹 r/NFTArt – For NFT artists.
🔹 r/cryptocurrency – Engage with the Web3 crowd.
