Why You Want Your Tweets Retweeted?

Retweets can grow your message like magic. Let's say ten of your followers retweet your message. All of them have 200 followers. 2000 people see your tweet. If only one out of 100 retweet your message another twenty people will retweet. Your audience is now 30 times bigger than when you started. If that is not magic, I don't understand what is.

                                                                                                                      

So how will you get retweeted?

Dan Zarrella, writer of The Social Media Marketing Book, did a study about what works so you won’t have to.

In accordance with Dan timing is not everything but it is important. Depending on your audience twitter traffic increases and decreases in cycles. Overall, there is a better audience on Friday afternoon. People need to know everything you are doing for the weekend is my guess.

They scan for words or phrases and the most truly effective ten that get noticed and retweeted are: you, twitter, please, retweet, post, blog, social, free, media, and help.

The ones that jump out at me are pleased and retweet. As always, if you would like someone to take action the simplest way to produce that happen is ASK! You simply add Please Retweet to a tweet that leads back to your post and bingo. Some people may not see the article, but it only takes a second to retweet so they assist you to out.

If you place a retweet button on your article as well they might even retweet you twice. That can be quite cool. To be honest to produce it as easy that you can and rewarding that you can for the audience to spread the word.

Make sure your auto tweet your blog posts. If you are not auto tweeting your blog posts, you are missing the boat since there would be a link back to your post automatically included. That means when someone retweets your tweet it offers a clickable connect to your blog post.

But here is the key element. The first five words out of your mouth or on the page need to draw your audience in. Shock them, scare them, turn them on and tune them in. Catch their attention, make sure they are curious and then make sure to deliver everything you offer. Don't trick them and expect them ahead back. A retweet is just a gift of referral and it should go badly for you personally if you should be a trickster.

The post title must be compelling and it must be relevant to your followers’ interests. Then you must have under promised and over delivered. Provide good content by knowing your stuff. Tell your audience how they will benefit from reading your post and then cut right out the fluff. Don't dance around the subject just let them have the goods. They will enjoy it and (retweet) tell a friend.

If you found this informative article of value tweet it out. Copy and paste link to exactly where you found it right into a tweet. You win by passing along good content. The person who posted it on the blog/site gets more traffic and I get another reader. It is a win win win.
