New by me at Forbes today: a guide to getting 'Twitter verified' at Mastodon. Includes options for linking Twitter and Mastodon accounts, linking 'legacy blue' Twitter accounts, and more. I couldn't cover everything, so be kind - this is for a general audience, those who might be exploring Mastodon and want to know more about account verification in easy to digest terms.

I've seen the various guides to getting a green tick in your profile to "verify" your ID (really just verifying that the owner of another website also owns a profile on Mastodon but that's as good as it gets).

But it never seemed explained clearly enough for idiots like me who are trying to link to a Wordpress blog.

I finally found a guide that does!

As per suggestion of @kakape, I will try to have my Mastodon account verified. Since I do not have a personal Web page, I need your help.

If you know I am who I say I am, will you please confirm on the link I've added to my profile?
Thank you! 🤗

Here's how it works:

I've linked my Mastodon account to my blog and now have a lovely #GreenTick. It's worth much more than £6 a month.

It has only taken me 5 days to understand how to do this. #TechWizzard
