Your SCS indicates how much your actions resonate with others on Farcaster.

When your posts receive likes, comments, or recasts, it signifies that you’re having a meaningful impact. This score is calculated using publicly available data and updates constantly based on your interactions.

High-quality content is the cornerstone of a strong SCS. Share valuable insights, information, or entertainment to attract more engagement. Aim to post about topics you’re passionate about, and use questions, polls, or thought-provoking statements to spark conversations. Unique perspectives or fresh takes on popular topics can help your content stand out.

Active engagement is crucial for increasing your visibility and influence. Regular interaction with other users boosts your SCS and strengthens your network. Make it a habit to like and comment on posts, and recast interesting content to share with your followers. Participate in trending discussions and contribute meaningful insights to increase your visibility.
