How Your Copywriting Skills Directly Affect Engagement

Even those who have been on Twitter for years may have next to no engagement on their content. The nature of the platform is not always to blame.

Low engagement on your content may be because of the copy of your content. The quality of the content you post and the way you present this information plays a huge role in engagement.

When you craft copy that is easy to read, relevant to your audience, and has a strong CTA, you’ll quickly notice the difference. Good tweets will grab the attention of your audience and motivate them to take the desired action.

10 Tips You Need to Know to Master Twitter Copywriting

Let’s dive in and explore 10 copywriting Twitter tips, along with a few examples.

1. Understand Your Audience

Whenever you are creating copy, it is crucial to think about your audience. If you want people to read what you share, it needs to be appealing to them.

Think about whether the topic you are writing about is relevant to your audience. Think about whether your audience will prefer a casual tone or a formal tone. Use words that your audience will understand and break down complex topics, so your audience doesn’t have to google jargon.

2. Define Your Goals

Think about your goals and what you are trying to achieve on Twitter. When you have clear goals, you will be able to create content that will help you achieve them.

If you want to use Twitter to drive traffic to your website, share links to your website’s content. If you are using the platform to land new clients, you’ll need to share content that promotes your services.

3. Make Your Tweets Easy to Read

The next Twitter copywriting tip is to always ensure that your content is easy to read. Use simple, easy-to-understand words and avoid jargon.

Use white space and break down your tweet into sections so it will be easy to consume the content. Posting one large text block will be overwhelming for your audience.

This tweet is a good example of how to use short sentences and lots of white space to make the content easy to consume.

4. The Human Touch

Twitter is the place for you to showcase your personality and build conversations and credibility. It is a place where you can nurture connections. Put your heart into interactions and lend the human touch to your copy. Don’t be afraid to give a glimpse into your personal side.

5. Strengthen Your Copy with Visual Elements

Visuals can help you get someone’s attention more than words can. With the 280-character limit, using videos will also allow you to deliver in-depth information on a topic.

GIFs lend some personality to your copy and can make your content fun. Use these elements to strengthen your copy and make it stand out.

In this example, instead of using text to list out the 10 soft skills, visuals are used to present the same information in a more attractive way.

6. Improve Readability

The goal of good Twitter copywriting is to ensure that your audience understands your intended message. One of the best ways to do that is to ensure that your content is readable and scannable.

Use different content formats, such as breaking up your text and replacing some of it with visuals. Use bullet points to break down your content. Use emojis where appropriate but don’t go overboard with them.

This thread is a good example of scannable content. It utilizes bullet points and makes good use of white space to make the content readable.

7. Use Psychological Tricks

Now that you know the basics of Twitter copywriting, let’s talk about a few tricks to use to attract the attention of your audience. Use these psychological tricks when crafting your tweets.

The fear of missing out is one of the most effective psychological tricks. People do not want to be behind the crowd. When presenting an attractive opportunity to your audience, make it limited in time, so your audience will not want to miss out. Use words like “ending soon,” “limited time only,” and “urgent.”

Evoke emotions with your copy. Share your personal story and be authentic. This will help you connect to your audience and encourage them to take action.

8. Use a Consistent Tone of Voice

If you want to build a recognizable, notable personal brand, your copy should have a consistent tone of voice. Being professional doesn’t always mean being formal. You can make it conversational, but it is important to stay consistent if you don’t want your audience to get confused.

9. Incorporate a Strong CTA

One of the most important Twitter copywriting skills to develop is knowing how to craft a strong CTA. If you want your audience to take a certain action, you have to tell them in clear words what you want them to do.

Whether you want your audience you retweet your content, follow you, or click your link, incorporate it clearly in your copy.

In this example, the CTA is not only clear but it also states the benefits the reader will receive when joining the newsletter.

10. Proofread Before Tweeting

Once you have spent some time crafting the perfect tweet, it is important to take some time to proofread it thoroughly. The last thing you want is to publish a tweet and then realize there’s a typo or grammatical error.

Frequent mistakes in your copy do not reflect well on you, so it is always worth proofreading before you publish.
