To gather the data for this article, I used MyTopTweet to pull together Buffer’s 10 most successful tweets and attempted to create a best-practices guide on why our top tweets worked and how marketers can repeat our success.

After looking at the different types of Buffer tweets and also researching a variety of tweets from top brands, I found that there is no magic formula for virality, but there are elements to successful tweets. In other words, recurring themes continually appeared in many of the tweets that I studied.


Here are the top 10 Buffer tweets and the elements that made them great:...

How Twitter is used for news (and what that means for marketers) - Infomart | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

Twitter users consume news more heavily than any other social media users, according to a recent study by theAmerican Press Institute, Twitter and DB5. Nearly 9 in 10 Twitter users in the study (86%) say they use Twitter for news.

The study, which surveyed 4,713 people online, aims to answer those questions and more. Here are some useful stats about how Twitter is used for news and key takeaways that can help you publish more effectively on Twitter:...

Why Twitter is the Ideal Platform for Engagement | Convince and Convert

Why Twitter is the Ideal Platform for Engagement | Convince and Convert | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

It is this bar-like atmosphere that makes Twitter the ultimate platform for customer engagement, and for the same reason why Twitter is the ideal social network for marketers:Twitter is the only social network where brands and consumers have an even playing field and unrestricted lines of clear, concise communication.


Engagement Goldmine


What else makes Twitter the best platform for engagement? Let’s start with audience diversity. Compared to, let’s say, Pinterest—an image-driven outlet that skews female—Twitter not only attracts a unique audience, but it makes your desired audience easy to pinpoint. Characteristics and interests are easy to discern not only through profiles, but through tweets, retweets, hashtags, etc. that the individual shares.

Jeff Domansky's insight:
