4 Tips to OptimizeYour Twitter Ads

1. Use links with calls-to-action

Tweets containing at least one link drive 98% of top brands’ average engagement.


2. More Tweets are better


3. Use images

A picture is worth a thousand words, especially when you’re limited to 140 characters.


This campaign saw a 2.44% increase in engagement rate between Tweets with images and Tweets without – which is pretty significant for PTs
