Very good news. Of course, each territory is different. Builders I'm sure attracts startups who can use this territory for marketing. There are probably other territories who can benefit from this strategy. For my territories, I suspect I'd effectively shut them down if I raised my post minimum to 1000 sats, but maybe I'm wrong.
I think you're right. Each territory has its own particularities and what works in one may not work in another. What I've noticed is that sometimes good content gets a bit forgotten and doesn't make it to the first or second page of the hot home. Sometimes it needs a little push (zap).

yeah you’re right that each territory is unique, and i don’t want this to come across as a prescription for all territories.
that being said, i think boosts are some low-hanging fruits that many territory owners could use to get more revenue.
for example, maybe ~booksandarticles could have authors or substack writers pay sats to get in front of SN’s audience. i could see some writers willing to pay $25 for extra exposure for their work.

~booksandarticles is killing it. Really admirable what @siggy47 has bootstrapped and unlocked, so loads of potential for monetisation with that level of engagement.
Got a post landing in the next few days on territory numbers - something in there for everyone I hope - not just founders.

That would be wonderful. Bounties solve the rent issue very quickly. I have seen a few of them in my territories. I am working on books and articles to make the territory an attractive place for writers to market their work. It just hasn't happened yet. I'm not complaining. I'm happy to see the green shoots that are appearing.

for sure, and there will also be improvements made to the boost functionality over time that make it easier to onboard advertisers and have them spend on SN
