Usernames can carry a lot of social value in today’s digital landscape. Once merely, a means of identification, has slowly emerged as a social currency. A clever and easy to remember username can help establish your online identity, attract followers, and even open doors to opportunities.

In platforms like Twitter and Instagram, a unique username can be your ticket to attracting followers and connections. Be it a clever pun ,or a reference to your favourite show, most times a great username will make you stand out. In a way, usernames have become a form of branding in their own right.

But, here’s the thing, it’s not just about creating a memorable username; it’s also about protecting it. Usernames can sometimes be seen as a status symbol. This has led to a market for usernames, where people buy and sell handles, further emphasizing their value.

A new site might pop up tomorrow and you are indirectly being forced to have an account there too, otherwise someone might scoop up that username. And oh scammers, looking for this perfect opportunity hoping to exploit your fans and followers. Unless you don’t want your reputation tarnished, you possibly will end up registering for the new site.
