September 22, 2016 By Author 1 Comment

Want to go famous on Twitter ?

No other way than getting more retweets can be a better strategy if you wish to rock the world of Twitter. However, the irony is that most of the people who make tweets overlook the number of retweets that is less compared to their actual efforts.

Only a small percentage of about 2% on Twitter are retweets and the rest of 98% never gets viral over the web and are never talked about.

So if you spend several hours on Twitter daily, you are actually wasting your time as getting a significant number of retweets for your tweet often becomes a tough deal to make.

The primary reason for a failed effort of getting a handful of retweets on Twitter is that most of the people are actually not aware of the methods to make an effective tweet and get the desired number of retweets for the same.

Follow 25 Steps to Get More Twitter Retweets and Post Likes..

 

#1. Have a Good Profile Pic

If you think that posting your real avatar is not really helpful, you are actually not doing justice to your Tweeting policy. When you tweet any of your posts, people also get to know how you look by a mere glance of your picture. That gives them an idea about your facial features and ensures that you are a human being and not a dummy. It has a long-lasting impact on your audience

So, never be afraid of posting your real picture than posting cartoons, or celebrities in place of your profile picture. Also, make it sure that it must look good and attractive.

 

#2. Be a Retweeter

We live in a selfish world and to achieve something, it’s important to do something for others to get noticed. So, by applying the strategy of “give and take” you may reach the desired milestone in a desired period. If you become a retweeter and often retweet other people tweets, you will definitely get noticed by the other person and will surely get some of the retweets in return.

Also, make it a point not to retweet for the sake of doing so. You should pick an ideal one that suits the zest of your business and requirement as you just cannot pick up any of the tweets from the millions of tweets that are done in a day.

 

#3. Use Capital Letters in Your TWEET

Are you aware of the fact that the use of bold capital letters is an effective trick to attract the attention of the audiences? “Say “NO” to expensive SEO METHODS as we are here to help you and make use of affordable pricing strategy,” Isn’t the above sentence striking? Of course, the use of capital letters in between seems to be eye catching.

Using capital letters is a proven technique to catch the attention of the people. So never mind making use of capital letters in your blogs and articles as such kind of articles get more retweets.

Also, don’t do the trick obvious as over usage of the technique will only worsen the effect of your content even if it is very well-written. Implementing the trick in a right way is the real need of the game.

 

#4. Engage With Your Audience

Though, engaging with the audience is an important aspect of the online world, but is still the most underrated method to build a relationship with the audience. Engaging with your audience will allow you to get connected with them.

Always remember, the better are the relationships with your audience, the chances of getting more retweets go high.

People who have more active conversations with you will be the ones who will retweet your post often and will promote you often. Greater engagement with the audience will turn them into your friends who will spread your name through tweets.

 

#5. Think About Your Target Audience

Know your target audience and then tweet the content that would generate higher interest in them if you want them to retweet your content.

For example – If your audience is looking for dessert recipes, do not assay them with a crunchy snack. So focus on the right kind of tweet for getting a better response from your audiences.

 

#6. Tweet Latest Trending Topics

“Trending topics”, the most popular of the millions of topics that often gets retweeted on Twitter. Trending topics are related to the recent happenings or the ongoing trends. A lot of people look for related topics to check out the kinds of tweets related to it. Often, such types of tweets get retweeted 3-4 times more than any other subject.

Always remember that do not tweet for the sake of tweeting, but post something that is interesting and is relevant to the subject or else you are going to make a fool of yourself. Also, every topic is not apt to tweet about.

 

#7. Build Relation With Influencers

Needless to say, a lot of people belonging to your community or business must be getting a lot of retweets for their tweets. Their relationship with their audience helps them to manage a considerable number of retweets for themselves.

Building connections with such kind of people will help you in the long run as some of them may decide to retweet some of your content. It is always better to connect with people related to your niche than connecting with people associated with other niches.

 

#8. Request For The Retweet

You can always ask for retweets from the people in your circle rather than hesitating to do so. It is certainly fine and help you generate more traffic towards your content.

In fact, including “Retweet” at the end of the message contributes to getting more number of tweets. Try avoiding short forms like “RT” or”r/t” instead of “Retweet”.

So, why not ask for something you want and enhance your audience engagement abreast.

 

#9. Talk About Twitter

Twitter is the popular social media platforms, and it becomes imperative to learn about the ways to get more retweets. Obviously, if you want to get more retweets, you need to study Twitter and talk more often about it so that you are able to generate more knowledge about it.

Apart from getting more retweets, one of the other concerns must be to explore the ways to get more followers here. Apparently, you may find several articles covering the topic, but most of them may cover the subject on the ways to get more retweets.

 

#10. Add a Number In Your Tweets

Number game works miraculously when it comes to tweeting. For example, the title 7 Simple Ways To Get More Twitter Followers is more striking than the title “Simple Ways to Get More Twitter Followers”. If you give an idea about the number of tips to your audience, it is more encouraging for them to click on the given link.

Studies have proven that including the exact number of tips can yield more retweets compared to the tweet without numbers. So, why not apply this simple trick and attract more of your audience towards your post so that they retweet your posts very often.

 

#11. Produce Your Tweets 70-90 Characters Long

Avoid long tweeting strategy. Twitter allows its users to tweet 140 characters at a time, and though it’s not that long, still cutting it short to 70-90 characters is just a right tactic to apply while tweeting.

People like reading small sentences and a short tweeting technique help to get the higher attention of the audiences and higher conversions of tweets into retweets.

 

#12. Tweet About The Same Niche

We always expect Tony Robbins tweets to be motivational. What will happen, if Tony Robbins Tweet about fashion rather than posting about motivational thoughts? Apparently, people will feel shocked and disinterested to read his tweet because fashion is not his niche.

It is necessary to stick to one niche and share ideas related to that niche through your Tweets for getting more followers and retweets.

 

#13. Embed Your Tweets In Your Blogs

Undoubtedly, a few parts of your tweets will match up with the content of any of your previous blog posts. If you have the ability to embed tweets in your blog post, you can boost higher audience engagement and allow them to mark your post as a favorite and retweet it further.

Also, the audience who like your blog will most likely retweet your embedded tweets also. This way, you grow your audience as more people see your tweets and retweet them.

 

#14. Tweet With 1-2 Hashtags

The hashtag is one of the most intriguing methods used for reaching the online audience. Hashtag work like SEO for Twitter and all the other social media platforms. It allows the users to find a related post through search engines and have a significant impact on the online visibility of the tweet.

A lot of people who are not aware of the correct method to use a hashtag often stuff it and makes reading difficult for the users. Social media experts have proven that including 1-2 hashtags in a single tweet will result in higher visibility and the greater number of retweets than tweeting with more than two hashtags or none of these signs.

 

#15. Tweet Some Motivational Quotes

According to Harmandeep Singh, tweeting motivational quotes are the best way to reach your audience and get a maximum number of retweets. He keeps on tweeting motivational quotes throughout the day as his motivational tweets get retweeted four times than any article and spreads the most.

Motivational quotes boost up the morale of a person and fill them with new confidence and attitude. Motivational quotes are something that people like sharing with other people and often retweet them.

 

#16. Show Gratitude To Your Followers

I happened to read a beautiful quote, “Give thanks for a little and you will find a lot”. Paying gratitude to others works and helps you build healthy relationships with other people. Thanking your followers will allow you to create better connections with your followers and lead them towards retweeting more of your tweets.

Gratitude can do wonders to your business and can yield you long-lasting personal and professional relationships.

 

#17. Host a Giveaway

A lot of people out there are not aware of the fact that there are certain things on Twitter that gets viral like a giveaway. The giveaway strategy allows a lot of people to get hundreds of retweets in return and open their passages for creating a list of trending topics on Twitter that further gets retweeted.

A giveaway every quarter gives reason to your followers to stick to your tweets and retweet them further.

 

#18. Repost Your Most Popular Tweet

Twitter’s Pin Your Tweet feature offers you an opportunity to pin your tweets. The tweets pinned by you tops your feed. So, if you pin the tweet that you posted a few days ago, and you also tweeted 4-5 posts in the past days, the pinned tweet will always top the list of your feed.

This is one of the best ways to popularize one of your most favorite tweets. If your tweet remains pinned for a long time, it remains popular for a longer time.

 

#19. Share Links In Your Tweets

Link your Tweets to informative blogs and articles as people are knowledge hungry and search for information through popular tweets. So, if you want your tweet to get retweeted, make it a point to add relevant information that people might be seeking for.

Researches have proven that tweets with links are more likely to get retweeted compared to the ones without links. So, add a link to your tweet that redirects your tweet to the insightful information.

The audience idea for retweeting is very straightforward. If they like the content, they will retweet it so that more people get to know about it and can derive the desired information too.

 

#24. Share YouTube Videos In Your Tweet

YouTube is the king of the video world. YouTube videos are everywhere on the web these days.
