1. Freshen up the bio<\/strong><\/h3>\nTreat your Twitter bio<\/a>\u00a0like an\u00a0SEO booster<\/a>.\u00a0Remember: your bio is usually the first thing people see when deciding whether to follow you on social media. Like it or not, it\u2019s your elevator pitch that is immediately judged by what you write in your bio.<\/p>\nIn a short amount of space, communicate your expertise across the many areas you cover. Add hashtags, punchy copy, and most of all, make it relevant. You want your bio seen in Twitter search<\/a>. ‘<\/p>\nPro tip:<\/strong> Remember to include a URL!<\/p>\nBelow are my personal and our company Twitter profiles:<\/p>\n
![\"9](\"https:\/\/dlvrit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Optimized-Twitter-Profiles.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nFor more details on crafting a Twitter bio, read Debra’s post:\u00a0How to Craft an Awesome Twitter Bio<\/a><\/p>\n2. Update the profile picture<\/strong><\/h3>\nDoes your bio picture (profile photo) represent who you are today? Is your company logo visible in your follower’s feed? It should be quickly recognizable as your followers scroll through their feed. Your profile creates a perfect branding opportunity.\u00a0Your Twitter profile picture\u00a0is what follows your tweets and retweets.<\/strong><\/p>\nTip: The recommended dimensions for a bio image is 400×400 pixels.<\/p>\n
3. Create custom Twitter headers image<\/strong><\/h3>\nShow off your brand. Create custom branded Twitter header<\/a> image. To master this, I strongly suggest you read How to Create the Perfect Twitter Headers and why it’s Important<\/a>. Creating the perfect custom header image is a bit more complex then it appears – it’s still easy to do, but you need to keep a few things in mind.<\/p>\nTip:\u00a0Twitter headers are horizontal in orientation. Twitter\u2019s recommended dimensions for your header photo is 1500px in width X 500px in height.\u00a0<\/strong>BUT,<\/strong>\u00a0the size that really works well for most is:\u00a01500px (width) X <\/strong>421px<\/strong> (height)<\/p>\n4. Organize Twitter followers with lists<\/strong><\/h3>\nTruthfully, I have not mastered this one yet. It is one of the things I know I should do to help me scroll\u00a0through tweets in a more organized and efficient manner. With that said, let’s learn how to\u00a0Create and use Twitter lists<\/a>\u00a0together.\u00a0On my to-do list this week! How about you?<\/p>\n5. Follow customers and influencers<\/strong><\/h3>\nRule of thumb, follow to be followed<\/a>. Following prospects or influencers is a gentle way of saying “Hello, nice to meet you” without being pushy. You need to make an impression in nanoseconds. A bio, profile image and header image will grab a\u00a0prospect’s attention – your content will hold their attention.<\/p>\n6. Review analytics and make adjustments<\/strong><\/h3>\nDo you have the right posting schedule? What content is generating the most Favorites and Retweets? Who are\u00a0your most active Twitter followers (are you following them)? Use Twitter analytics<\/a> to make adjustments to your content and posting schedule<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Twitter](\"https:\/\/dlvrit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Twitter-Analytics-Top-Content-1024x731.png\")
<\/p>\n
When you view your Twitter stats, ask yourself a few questions:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- How does time of day and day of the week influence the performance of your tweets? Do certain times lead to more impressions?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- What is your optimal tweet frequency? Are you burning out your audience by over-tweeting or can you stand to tweet even more than you currently do?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- Is your audience more responsive to a fun and conversational tone or more business-like, professional-sounding tweets?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- How does media perform in your tweets? Do people love videos and photos, or do they prefer text-based tweets?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- How does link placement in your tweets impact engagement?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- What kinds of calls-to-action (CTA) generate the most engagement with your audience? Are blatant CTAs more impactful, or does your audience appreciate subtlety?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
List of other action items Twitter analytics may create:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n- Use\u00a0Twitter search<\/a> to find\u00a0new people to follow based on the Twitter Interest category data\u00a0(e.g. find more people like \u201cx\u201d)<\/li>\n
- Identify what Tweet mechanics work, and which aren\u2019t as effective. Keep an eye on elements like different calls to action, the inclusion of rich media and copy length.<\/li>\n
- Pay attention to when you tweet. Note which time of day and day of the week yields the highest engagement and impressions.<\/li>\n
- Is your audience mobile? If yes, is your site mobile friendly?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
7. Pin a\u00a0Tweet<\/strong><\/h3>\nCould a Tweet use a bit of a boost? Want new Twitter followers to see a particular Tweet? Pinning a Tweet allows you to position a static Tweet at the top of your Twitter feed. This “pin” will be the first Tweet your followers will see. For instructions on pinning a tweet, read step #3 in our\u00a0post on\u00a03 Advance Twitter Marketing Tips<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/dlvrit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/How-to-pin-a-tweet.png\")
<\/p>\n
8. Discover new content<\/strong><\/h3>\nFollow the Twitter account called @MagicRecs.<\/a> It was created by Twitter<\/a> as an experiment to help users find new people to follow. In addition, you can receive content recommendations through direct messages<\/a> by offering suggestions on accounts to follow based on ones you already do. By following more people, you automatically expose your Twitter profile and boost the chances they follow you back.<\/p>\n9. Test new features<\/strong><\/h3>\nTwitter has made it super easy to Tweet short videos through an app called Periscope<\/a>. Periscope is an app that lets you share and experience live video from your mobile phone. Periscope is a stream of what is happening now (like Twitter) but with video (vs. text and images). Use your creativity to show what your chef is cooking up or happy customers in your shop or your latest and greatest widget.<\/p>\n10.\u00a0Participate\u00a0in #FollowFriday<\/strong><\/h3>\nFollow Friday or #ff on Twitter is a tradition in which people send tweets recommending Twitter users they think other people may be interested in following.<\/p>\n
The tweets are sent on Fridays and contain the hashtag<\/a>\u00a0#ff or #FollowFriday.<\/p>\nThe idea is to help people figure out who to follow on Twitter by sharing usernames or Twitter handles of the people whose tweets you find interesting. It’s all about helping people get followers on Twitter.<\/a><\/p>\n11.\u00a0Use a Tweet Button in Your Blog Posts<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"11](\"https:\/\/dlvrit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/twitter-button-sharing-statistic.png\")
Your blog can be a great tool to help you get more Twitter followers.\u00a0Make sure that your blog features social media icons<\/a>\u00a0including the Twitter share buttons. According to eMarketer, sites with twitter share buttons installed get seven times<\/em> the twitter mentions as websites without them.\u00a0Twitter\u00a0has an\u00a0official tweet button<\/a>, and I recommend you use it.\u00a0If you install this button into your pages or posts manually you can also choose to have the button recommend people to follow after a\u00a0 tweet is sent.<\/p>\n—–
