Strong signal, not bought numbers
Blowhorn doesn't sell followers, likes or repost packages, and it never will. A like from someone paid to click is weak signal: it moves a number and nothing else. Strong signal is a reply, a question, a repost with a real take from someone who knows your work, a thread that turns into a discussion. Blowhorn exists to get your message in front of the people who would answer it, through the profiles of real people who chose to back you.
Recycling evergreen posts keeps a feed alive. It doesn't start a discussion. Blowhorn spends its effort on the first hour of a post that matters, when real people replying is what gets it seen.
