How to use Twitter ads effectively
The recent Twitter Masterclass (YouTube) raised a question about creating and using Twitter adverts.
Here’s what we’d suggest:
Grow followers
You can use Twitter ads to grow followers, by promoting your brand, and giving your audience a reason to follow you.
You could encourage people to follow you for news, tips, offers, for information or response to a live event, and much more.
Drive traffic to your website
Creating a website card provides you with plenty of scope to create engaging adverts.
Including images, good copy, your website URL, and a strong call to action will help to drive traffic to your website.
Increase tweet engagements
Using Promoted tweets can help you to reach a more targeted audience.
Promoted tweets look like regular tweets, and can be replied to and favourited, but are labelled as Promoted.
Encourage app installs
By targeting the right sort of people who you think will find your app useful, you can use Twitter ads to increase the number of downloads for you app.
Using the App Install Card you can direct people to the appropriate app store so they can quickly download and use your app.
Find leadsYou can use Twitter adverts for data capture too. Once you have the email addresses of your potential customers you can nurture them via targeted email campaigns./p>
Conclusion
Twitter adverts can prove more cost effective, generate better results, and be better targeted than traditional online advertising.
