Share other content

I could say that the key to success is being unique but that would just be a down right lie. Hundreds of people are becoming “Twitter famous” for quite frankly, stealing other people’s content. The most notorious being The Fat Jew and most controversially The Lad Bible – both whom now give credit to their original posters.

Retweeting popular and unique tweets is a great way to boost how your brand is perceived. If you are sharing content that people like, people will begin to follow you as their source of great content. It’s also a lot more ethical than claiming other people’s tweets – something that may actually decrease your brand perception.

Just remember to only share posts that you think your fans will like. If you’re selling Harley Davidsons, don’t share anything to do with Justin Bieber.

Remember to geotag

 

The geotagging tool was added to Twitter in 2014 and is a fantastic way to boost your engagement and add extra flavour to your tweet. Rather than simply tweeting “bbq” you can add a location such as “Vondelpark, Amsterdam” and all of a sudden your tweet becomes a lot more exciting and much more relatable.

People that are interested in the location / event will be searching for the location and you’ll be in the mix.

Add some colour to your profile

If a picture is worth a thousand words, and the average length of a word is 5 characters, then adding an image to your tweet boosts your character limit to 5140. Almost every tweet includes an image in 2016 and why wouldn’t you? The average media post quadruples the length of the tweet! Quotes tend to get me the most RT’s, they’re relatable, shareable and it gets me onto more feeds.

A great free tool I use to create free graphics is Snappa.

After 100 million GIFs were shared in 2015, Twitter rolled out their new GIF searching tool in February 2016. An amazing tool to add emotion and reactions to a tweet but you can also use GIFs to boost your sales – yes, a direct way to improve your ROI! Create your own Gifs using Gif Maker or Make a Gif and create beautiful clips to show your special offers!

 

Twitter are now not including media links within the character limit so you no longer have to choose between good content or an image.

Ask your fans

Struggling to see what your fans like? Ask them! Twitter has its very own poll feature which can give people the option to vote anonymously to your question. If you’re looking for a more personal answer it’s always best to simply tweet the question and people can reply directly. Remember to pin your question to your profile so that it has a longer lifespan!
