This is a live document, and I will be updating it as more SEOs join Threads.
Several Twitter alternatives have come up since Elon Musk decided to ruin my favourite social media platform. One of the reasons we've not found a clear alternative to Twitter is that we're struggling to find the people we want to follow and whose content we enjoy.
Fortunately, I am motivated and caffeine-fueled, so here is a list of SEO experts worth following on Threads.
The first 10 SEOs to follow on Threads
A first edition of this post was an unstructured list of people and organisations, but as the list grew past 90 members, I thought it would be worth giving everyone a starting-off point.
These are personally my top SEO follows. I would recommend following them in any platform and anytime. These should be your first 10 follows on Threads ⬇️
Lidia Infante, Senior SEO Manager at Sanity. Yes, that's me. Putting me first is shameless self-promo, but the rest of the list is legit, I swear.

Lily Ray, Head of SEO at Amsive Digital
Aleyda Solís, International SEO Consultant & Founder at Orainti
