Your Tweets Don’t Need to Fall into the Cracks of TwitterWorld
There is nothing worse than spending the time to come up with a really awesome or inspiring tweet just to have it fall into the Twitterverse without ever being retweeted or commented on. While this is bound to happen on occasion, if all of your tweets are being ignored then perhaps you need to change the way you write them. You will find that the more followers you have the harder it will be to get tweets retweeted. What? You thought more followers automatically meant more retweets? Sadly, this is not the case. What can happen is that the more followers you have, the more tweets there will be on the newsfeeds which can bury tweets very quickly. There are some great tips for writing retweetable tweets listed below.
Think of Tweets as Headlines
When you are looking at news on the internet or if you are one of the few who enjoy reading an actual newspaper, what makes you read an article? If you think about it, it’s typically the headline that grabs your attention and makes you want to read it. Think of your tweets in the same way if you want to get anything out of them. After all, with only one hundred and forty characters it’s not like you can write a diatribe! Look at headlines and think of how you can apply that type of writing to your tweets. Do you want to shock, inform or entertain your followers with your tweet? You’ll find that your tweets are being seen and shared if you take this stance on everything you post.
Offer Links to Your Website
Since you are promoting your company, then each tweet needs to finish with a link to your website. On those tweets where your introducing new products or are offering a special discount on an item, make sure the link is in the tweet. Not only will this get your tweets retweeted, but it will also drive more traffic to your website. Nobody wants to have to search around or Google your company name in order to take advantage of special offers unless it’s for something free. When you include the link, that’s the same thing as giving your followers a call to action and they will share your tweet so their friends can take advantage of the deal.
Offer Statistical Information
People love to get random and interesting information as long as it is relevant to them. It is important that you find some great statistics based on your industry as tweet them if you want better tweets which lead to more followers. It is possible to get fake followers but faking fame on Twitter is easy but won’t bring in real customers. And you need to have real customers as followers if your marketing strategy is to pay off for you. So do some research and once or twice a week post some fun statistical information that is bound to be retweeted more than once.
If your tweets are not getting the notice you think they deserve then you need to switch up what you are doing and try something else. The above are just three ways to write tweets that won’t end up in Twitter no man’s land!
