4 Tips for the Perfect Tweet (Infographic)

Are you using Twitter as part of your social media strategy? Most businesses use this platform for brand-building and lead generation. Success in these 2 areas all starts with your Tweets.

So it’s wise to learn more about creating the perfect Tweet, and then experiment to find out what works best for you.

HubSpot shared some helpful stats on the Infographic below (created with research from Audiense) that will help you optimize your Tweets and see more success on this platform.

Here are 4 tips for a perfect Tweet:

1. Use an image – 34% of Tweets with images get Retweeted
2. Place your link (URL) in the middle of the Tweet  – 26% of Tweets with the URL in the middle are more likely to be Retweeted
3. Use a hashtag – 33% of Tweets with hashtags get Retweeted, but a Tweet with one hashtag is 69% more likely to be Retweeted than a Tweet with two hashtags
4. Pay attention to the length of your hashtags – Hashtags with 11 characters get 117% more Retweets than Hashtags with 6-10 characters

Using this formula, here is an example of a Tweet I would create for this blog post:

(Upload an image to go with your Tweet: Twitter-only images can be optimized at 440 x 220 pixels; but square images now show up on Twitter as well, so if you’re creating images for Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, you can use 1200 x 1200 pixels)

Simple, right? See the Infographic below for details and then try it out on your Twitter account.
