Clout

Social influence, status, or fame — particularly online. Having clout means being well-known or respected in a particular online community.

How kids use it

"Clout chasing" means doing things purely for attention or followers, sometimes risky or embarrassing things. Teens who chase clout may make poor decisions to gain social media attention.
