Verified (blue check)
Also known as: Blue check, Blue tick
The blue checkmark next to a handle indicating the account has a paid X Premium subscription or is a verified organization.
In depth
The blue checkmark used to mean "X confirmed this account is the real public figure or organization it claims to be." Since 2022, it instead indicates a paid Premium subscription. The criteria for the original verification scheme are now folded into X Premium's eligibility checks.
Verified accounts get algorithmic reach boosts, longer post limits, and prioritized reply visibility — which is most of why the subscription pays off for accounts using X for business.
Now put it to work
AutoTweet generates and schedules X content tuned for the algorithm — the same one this glossary just explained.
