1.) Post 10 Times Per Day or More

Tweet 10 times Per Day

One of the major reasons many people struggle with Twitter is because of the number of times they Tweet per day.

Unlike Facebook, which ideally might require you to post a maximum of twice a day (depending on your brand), Twitter works differently.

Many brands, copy their Facebook marketing strategy on to Twitter by posting just once or twice a day and end up receiving dismal results.

All Social Media sites were not made equal. You need to treat each site differently.

Research conducted by Neil Patel, one of the best digital marketers in the world, proves that if you post at least 10 times per day or more on Twitter, you can vastly boost the traffic on your Twitter profile.

Twitter Post Experiment

Neil and his team conducted an experiment on Twitter for a week to check the effects of posting once a day on Twitter vs posting multiple times, and the results were outstanding.

When they posted only once a day for a week, they noticed that they received about 749 visitors for that week. Then the following week, they increased the number of tweets by 40 times per day, yes that’s right, 40 times!

While the traffic did not go up by 40 Times, it did increase from 749 visitors to 5,263 visitors for that week.

Now you might say that you don’t have so much content on your website to post 40 times per day, well that’s absolutely fine. You don’t have to always share your website content on Twitter.

You can also retweet other relevant content that might help your followers or the community grow.

To keep things on a manageable level, try posting at least 10 times per day on Twitter and I guarantee that you will see a huge boost in the number of followers to your account.

2.) Tweet With No Links

Tweet with No Links

The intent for sharing content on Social Media is to get people to your website. That might work well most of the time however with Twitter, the opposite is true.

Research shows that tweets with fewer or no links end up receiving more engagement as compared to tweets with links.

Social Media Examiner went ahead to test this theory by posting two tweets, one with a link and one without, and below is what they found.

The Tweet without the link happened to get higher engagement.

So it’s not always about link sharing. You can try sharing snippets of content with your audience and they might just end up loving you for it.

3.) Add Images When You Share Links

Twitter Marketing Add Images to Links

Tweets with images always standout compared to those without. When you share your links online, add images to your tweets to attract attention.

Research conducted by Buffer states that tweets with images receive 150% more retweets as compared to those without any images.

One awesome tool that you can use to help you with sharing images on Twitter is Tweetshot. It’s a simple tool that will help you save a lot of time.

All you need to do is add the Tweet on Tweetshot along with the link. Tweetshot will then automatically fetch images from that article that you could share on Twitter.

4.) Use the Right Hashtags

Twitter Tips Hashtags

Hashtags used the right way on Twitter can get you noticed to your target audience, provided you don’t overdo it.

The ideal number of hashtags for a tweet would be around 2-3 hashtags and not more. You also need to remember to use hashtags that are in context with your content.

You can use Hastagify to find relevant hashtags for your content.

5.) Use Revive Old Posts Plugin on WordPress

Revive Old Posts Twitter Marketing

One of the most amazing things about Twitter is that you can always repost your old content and you will still receive engagement and followers to your account.

It is a brilliant way to continuously get traffic to your old blog posts and articles even if they are posts as long as a year old.

If you have a WordPress website, all you need to do is install the plugin Revive Old Posts. Once you do that and link your twitter account on the CMS, the plugin will automatically start sharing all your old posts at intervals that you set up.

You can even set common hashtags for the tweets or hashtags based on your websites categories, tags and so on. You don’t need to manually go to your site to share content again. This nifty plugin saves a lot of time and effort.

    Hi Odell,

    I am Nishant and I love the way you put out your content in a digestible format. I wanted to know how do you make your videos because I really like them. It would be great if you could give me some ideas or points to curate videos like yours for my blog which focus on mental health and soft skill development.

      Hi Nishant, thanks a lot. I’m glad you liked the article. For my videos, I use the VideoScribe.
      Well when I make videos for my blog post, I ensure that the script is ready first. So I would recommend that you start working on your videos only after you have completed the blog article.
      Once you have the script ready, making the video becomes easy 🙂
