If you’re setting up on social media, you may want to hold back on investing on this social media platform until the charges and services become clarified. If you’re already using “X”, then you will need to assess whether to continue yourself if/when the charges are implemented.

Currently in the UK, it costs an individual £100.80 / year to hold a premium account.

If the platform does become a “pay only”, then it may lose users and you will have to evaluate if your target customers and/or clients will remain.
