How to write better tweets

A good tweet should be engaging, and include hashtags and a hyperlink. All in a maximum of 140 characters. If you regularly use Twitter, you certainly have a clear idea about this form of communication. Despite that, or perhaps because of that, you may use the following tips from NeoMobile.com that enable communication on Twitter to become even more efficient.

  1. Do not use more than 2 hashtags in one tweet. It then looks like spam.
  2. Avoid slang and abbreviations.
  3. Feel free to use familiar symbols - can significantly save space.
  4. Use link shortening services. The shortened hyperlink will then take no more than 20 characters.
  5. Try to keep in at least 20 characters space in your tweet for further information. This greatly reduces the chance it will be retweeted.
  6. Use a call to action. Tell readers what they should do (read something, learn something, etc).
  7. If you are careful about grammar and check your tweet for typos, it will be better understood as well as accepted.
