What Cast Should I Pin?

published on 07 November 2024

Finally, profile pinned casts! Warpcast just rolled out a shiny new feature: you can now pin your favorite casts to the top of your profile. Until now, pinning was limited to channels, but this update gives you way more flexibility to show off the content you want people to see first. Whether you’re an artist, a creator, a community builder, or a digital store owner, this feature opens up tons of new possibilities.

Here are five fresh, creative ways to make the most of pinning on Warpcast. Oh, and here’s the best part—all of these ideas work seamlessly with the Percs app, a killer tool in the Farcaster ecosystem that makes interactive content easy (and mostly free!). Let’s dive in!

1.  Make It Your Store Window

If you’re selling digital products, merch, or even NFTs, Warpcast’s pinning feature is like your own digital storefront! Think of it as a mini showcase for your offerings. Pin a cast that highlights your latest products or top picks and update it regularly to keep it fresh. Percs can help you link directly to your store or product pages, making it easy for followers to check out what you’re selling.

This is a great way to turn casual visitors into buyers. Make your profile a one-stop-shop where people can instantly see what you have to offer.

Pro Tip

Include keywords like “digital storefront,” “shop now,” and “NFTs for sale” to help attract potential customers looking for unique finds in the web3 space.

2. Create a Launch List

Got something big coming up? Maybe a product, a new project, or an upcoming event? Pinning a “launch list” is a perfect way to keep your followers hyped. Use Percs to build a countdown, tease what’s to come, and keep everyone in the loop. It’s like a real-time event list, right at the top of your profile.

People love sneak peeks, so this is a great way to keep them engaged and eager for what’s next. Each update, teaser, or preview you drop will help build excitement and make followers feel like they’re getting VIP access.

Pro Tip

Keywords like “launch list,” “product release,” and “countdown” help make your pinned cast discoverable, especially for people looking to stay in the know about upcoming releases.

3. Show Off Your Favorite Game (Guess the Movie, Math Quiz, and more)

Who says games are just for channels? With the pinning update, you can create a fun, interactive game cast and keep it front and center on your profile. Think movie trivia, brain teasers, or weekly math quizzes. Thanks to Percs, you can make your game casts super interactive and engaging.

This is a fun way to get followers to interact with you regularly, especially if you add a challenge, leaderboard, or even a reward for high scorers. Keep it fresh and watch people come back to your profile to play!

Pro Tip

Use keywords like “movie trivia,” “interactive quiz,” and “weekly challenge” to make your pinned game cast easy to find for all the quiz lovers out there.

Perfect for highlighting recent projects, getting more eyes on your style, and keeping followers coming back for more.

Imagine someone landing on your profile and immediately being able to see your best pieces—yep, this pinning feature is your new best friend.
