Posting Poems
Highlights & Boosts
Pin your best poems to your profile, schedule highlights to rotate on their own, and spend credits to boost a poem into more streams.
Highlighting pins a poem to the featured spot on your profile, so visitors see your best work first. Tick Highlight this poem on my profile in the composer, or use the highlight action in My Poems. Only Public poems can be highlighted. Full guide: Highlighting and boosting your poems →
Every poet can highlight 1 poem for free. GS Pro raises that to 4, so your profile can feature a rotating set. You can un-highlight and swap at any time, on any plan.

A boost spends 50 credits to place a highlighted, Public poem in the clearly labeled Boosted slots for 7 days — on Discover, where any browsing reader can find it, and in the "Boosted by poets you follow" spot on your followers' home pages. Anyone with credits can boost; it's not a GS Pro perk. Full guide →
Yes — that's a gift boost. Spend 50 of your own credits to put another poet's highlighted public poem into the Boosted slots for 7 days. They're notified that a supporter boosted their poem. More on gifting a boost →
No. Trending is always earned from real reads and engagement — it can't be bought. Boosted poems appear only in slots clearly labeled Boosted, separate from the Trending list.
