  4. 4 4 TWITTER

  5. Essential Twitter Terms • • • • • • • • RT = retweet MT = modified tweet Quote retweet @ reply @ mention HT or h/t = hat tip cc: = carbon copy Pinned tweet

  6. Hashtag Communities • Hashtags function in 4 ways: • Live conversations (e.g. #DemDebate) • Online community (e.g. #nptech, #NPMC) • Online conventions (e.g. #tbt, #ICYMI) • Asides (e.g. #smh, #sorrynotsorry)

  7. Best Practices: Frequency and Time • Minimum 3 tweets/day • Too many tweets decrease engagement • Life span of a tweet is about 15 minutes • Use tools to see when your fans are online

  8. Best Practices: Graphics and Header Image • Tweets with photos get 313% more engagement. • Take advantage of valuable real estate by using header images as billboards for an upcoming event or campaign.

  9. Best Practices: Character Length and Hashtags • • Spike in engagement for tweets 71-100 characters. Workarounds for the character count restriction: • Append (1/2), (2/2) to number related tweets. • Screenshots of more text. • Quote retweet. No more than 3 hashtags. Occasionally use broad hashtags, but the best are niche communities (e.g. #socialmedia vs. #HESM, #nptech) • •

  10. Best Practices: Tagging and Attribution • Search for the organization’s name in Twitter. If you can’t find it, try visiting their website to see if they list a Twitter account. Attribute with a “via @dodo” at the end of tweets that share other content. Try attributing the writer too. If you found the content through another account and can squeeze it in, give that account a hat tip: “via @dodo ht @johndoe” • •

  11. Other Tips: • • • • Insert a period before “@” if your tweet starts with an @ mention. If you’re referencing a web page, always include a link. Delete incorrect tweets. Do not post the same tweet to more than one account without changing the wording or time. Do not auto-tweet from other social media platforms. If you’re going to retweet an article, read it first. • •
