Effective Tweet

How to tweet like a pro

#Hashtags

Twitter's way of finding a needle in a hay stack.

Don't invent #hashtags. Join existing ones!

#hashtags represent topical conversations. To increase the exposure of your tweet to other interested users beyond your followers, join-in on existing conversations rather than starting new ones.


Try on Twitter

Remain topically focused!

Pinpoint your topical focus! Twitter recommends using no more than
2 hashtags per tweet. Avoid over-cluttering your tweet with multiple hashtags.

Don't stack #hashtags. Weave them in!

Attention span on Twitter is very short. Tweets with #hashtag piles are difficult to process in a glance. Avoid incomprehensible hashtag blocks. Weave hashtags into your sentences.

@Mentions

Harness the power of conversations.

Solicit attention!

When addressing a person or an institution, @mention their username in your tweet. Their attention (reply, retweet) will carry your tweet from your followers to theirs.

Dont stack!

Although allowed by Twitter, the practice of "stacking" mentions is considered spammy behavior and may lead to being blocked or reported. It is recommended to mention not more than 2-3 @usernames in a Tweet.

 visuals

Research conducted by Twitter data scientists over millions of tweets concludes: tweets with visuals receive 28%-35% more engagement than text-only tweets!

According to research, emotional images attract immediate attention!
