The smart use of the Twitter platform associated with other advanced analytical tools like Buzzummo can help you tо develop and implement a marketing plan to grow your online business. In this article, we talk about how you should interact with people in order to make your new posts go viral on Twitter. Basically, we go through two traffic methods, named here “The Posting Time Strategy” and “The View Shares Strategy“.
1. The posting time strategy on Twitter
The so-called Posting Time Strategy is only recommended if you have many Twitter followers. Let’s go over this method in case you are lucky and you have a lot of social media followers. For example, if you have something like over 200,000 people following your posts on Twitter… What you can do in this case is tweet 10 times a day. I kid you not! The key to success on Twitter is over-delivery!
How long have you been doing the Posting Time Strategy?
The key is going from tweeting once a day to 10 times a day like sharing more than 10 articles from your website each and every single day for a whole month. And you want to continually do that for a whole year. Even if it is old content from a year ago, you can keep sharing the same ones over and over again.
How to post a tweet on Twitter
Just go through all your old blog posts and put them in order. You can queue them up from Buffer. In that way, you do not have to go to Twitter each and every single day and share. In essence, if you want more traffic from Twitter social media, so you should continually tweet out. It is that simple!
According to Patel, when he was sharing just one link from his website on Twitter each and every single day, he was receiving roughly 1,100 visitors from Twitter in a whole month. However, when he started tweeting out 10 articles a day on the Twitter platform, he was receiving over 4,700 visitors. That was a huge increase. He went from 1,100 to 4,700 curious visitors, which in turn corresponds to an increase of 327.3%. Not bad?!
2. The posting time strategy on Twitter
The so-called View Shares Strategy is recommended if you have just a few Twitter followers. Now, if you do not have many people following you, here is a quick trick that you can use. You should start by writing a blog post on any relevant topic that meets the following guidelines:
- # Has your post had new and unique content?
- # Write a post with at least 2000 words
- # Can your followers learn from your content?
- # Has your blog post a call to action on it?
Twitter users are 3 times more likely to follow brands than Facebook users.
Combined with their above-average income and above-average education, Twitter users’ propensity to interact with brands makes them a huge potential source for Mass Influencers.
If you do that, then people are going to be like “This post is so amazing, I will not mind sharing it“. However, that is still not the trick! What the trick is? The trick is you to go to Buzzsumo! Once you are on Buzzsumo, type in keywords related to the article that you just wrote.
This website will sort out all the similar articles. Then, they will list out who wrote that and how many social shares it received. Thus, you can see every single person who tweeted out your article.
Buzzumo results for the keyword, Google Analytics
Let’s say you are writing an article on “How Google Analytics Is A Powerful Tool For Internet Marketers”. Then, you may go to Buzzsumo, type in terms related to online marketing and see who else has written topics related to Google Analytics. Suppose now that Buzzsumo has found an article made by TechCrunch on “How Google Analytics Screwed Up Marketing”. And that article has thousands of social shares.
Once you get inspired by the content of viral posts on social networks returned by Buzzumo, you can write a better article, improving its title and content to “How Google Analytics Made the Lives of Marketers Better“. You can thus go into depth on things like, “How Google Analytics is such amazing” or “How to analyze your Google Analytics data to optimize your ROI, especially on any paid marketing campaigns”.
“Hey, Mary,
I noticed that you shared this article by Sam from TechCrunch called “How Google Analytics Screwed Up Online Marketing”. I actually have a similar article that is coming out, but mine discusses how Google Analytics has made the lives of marketers way better.
My article even talks about how businesses are getting a huge ROI now because they are not wasting money on marketing campaigns that are not producing any ROI. I am covering A, B and C points that they do not discuss. Let me know if you want to check it before it goes live.
Cheers, John Doe”
Internet marketers should become familiar with such tactics. This easy-to-implement Twitter marketing strategy can be summarized in a 10 step-by-step procedure:
- 1. Find Buzzumo’s viral posts with your keyword
- 2. Choose a viral post to be your reference
- 3. Write a post based on the post of reference
- 4. Insert your main keyword into your post
- 5. Click on the View Shares option
- 6. Identify each person who shared your post
- 7. Find their emails in their Twitter profiles
- 8. Shoot them an email with the message above
- 9. 20% to 30% of the people will reply back by saying, “Sure, I’d love to see your article“
- 10. Once they reply, send off a new email quickly like:
“Hey, Mary,
Here is the article.
Cheers, John Doe.
P.S.: If you shared this article, not only it will make my day, but it would make my year.”
At the end of the day, you will notice that a lot of the people that you have emailed, will share your article. Using those two tactics will securely get you more Twitter traffic. Go ahead!
