Hey Creators👋,

If you're anything like me, you know that Twitter can be a powerful tool for building your brand, connecting with your audience, and staying on top of the latest news and trends.

But with millions of users and a constant stream of content, how can you make sure that your voice is heard? Especially more important for small accounts below 1k followers.

The answer, my friend, is engagement. In a world where attention is the most valuable currency, engaging with your audience on Twitter is absolutely crucial if you want to stand out from the crowd and make a lasting impact.

Whether you're a business looking to generate leads, a blogger trying to build your following, working on personal branding, or just a casual user looking to connect with like-minded people, engagement is the key to success on Twitter.

So today, I want to share some of my top tips for boosting engagement on Twitter and taking your presence to the next level. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting started, there's something here for everyone.

So let's dive in...

📈Measuring Engagement Success

When I first joined Twitter in February 2022, I was a bit overwhelmed by the constant stream of information and the fast-paced nature of the platform. However, I slowly started to understand the ins and outs of Twitter and began to engage more with big accounts and friends on the platform.

It wasn't until December that I really started to see some traction with my engagement, averaging around 20-30 engagements per day. But, as I continued to experiment with my engagement strategies, I realized that reaching 1k followers was crucial to gaining more visibility and engagement on the platform.

So, I shifted my focus in January and began to prioritize engagement over everything else. And, it paid off. By the first week of February, I was averaging over 100 engagements per day and I had grown my followers by 25% in just 15 days.

This is around 100 followers that’s gonna be added to my account in just February, most probably. Currently, it’s around 50 followers in under 15 days.

Remember, high engagement is a habit that takes time to build. If you take it all in, you're probably gonna get exhausted due to a sudden change of work.

But engaging will be one of the best decisions you'll take to lift off your audience and make more friends who will encourage you to get better every day.

🗨️Learn how to Engage more

One of the most effective ways to boost engagement on Twitter is to engage in conversations with other users, particularly with big accounts in your industry or niche. This can be achieved through thoughtful and genuine comments on their tweets.

Start by following big accounts that you admire and engage with their content on a regular basis. Make sure your comments are relevant, and insightful, and add value to the conversation.

By doing so, you will attract the attention of the account owner and their followers, potentially leading to increased visibility and more followers for your own account.

It's important to note, however, that commenting on tweets should not be your only engagement strategy. While it can be effective, it's just one part of a larger engagement plan. You should also consider other strategies, such as retweeting, sharing relevant content, participating in Twitter chats, and using visuals in your tweets. By diversifying your engagement tactics, you can build a well-rounded Twitter presence that resonates with your target audience and helps you achieve your goals on the platform.

I'm here to tell you the way of engaging by commenting on tweets, today.

So, there are two main ways to do this:

1. Engagement Tool: Twitter engagement tools are software or services that can help you improve your presence and engagement on Twitter. These tools come in many different forms, such as social media management platforms, scheduling tools, analytics tools, and follower analysis tools.

One of the finest examples of such a tool is Engagement builder - It is an engagement-centric platform that helps you with commenting on tweets without going to Twitter and helps you convert likes to followers, followers to friends, and friends to business opportunities.

My take on it: It's a great productivity improvement software that will help you comment on the most number of tweets without getting distracted.

2. Direct Engagement: This works as it is spelled. Engage with tweets on the Twitter website/app only. This is my way of engagement, the hard way and the more real way probably.

Let me dive you in, in the simplest and most effective way possible.

Here are also two ways in this type:

a) With List: This is the organized way. This way helped me go from 50 to a 100+ avg. engagements. You can learn how to create & organize your lists on Twitter from this thread by one of my friends - Jordan Parker.

After having a set of lists, like in my case I have 5 lists that are only for engaging and interacting with different tweets categorized on the basis of niches. (See them in the image below)

I interact with each niche based on different times throughout the day. It helps me categorize all niches and also focuses on prioritizing with whom to interact on a daily basis.

I also have this rule of engaging with at least 5 people whom I've never met before. Helps a lot.

Now, another approach...

b) Without List: This is the simplest way for beginners. Interact with all accounts in your Twitter timeline without any limitations and rules.

This has quite a bad effect on your engagement and productivity. Because you're constantly interacting with tweets without any filter to whom to interact and without priority.

It's still a good way to start and add a habit of engaging slowly and steadily.

Let's talk also about the habit of engaging and its importance...

🔁Building a Habit of Engagement

Creating a habit of commenting on tweets on a daily basis can help increase engagement and build relationships with other Twitter users. To get started, it's important to identify accounts that share content relevant to your interests or industry. Once you've identified these accounts, you can add them to an organized Twitter list to make it easier to find and engage with their tweets.

Start by commenting on a few tweets per day, gradually increasing the number of comments over time. For example, you could aim to comment on 20 tweets per day for the first week, then gradually increase to 40, 60, and so on. Using an organized Twitter list can help you keep track of the accounts you want to engage with and ensure that you are commenting on a variety of tweets.

As you comment more frequently, be sure to engage authentically and add value to the conversation. By building a habit of commenting on tweets on a daily basis, you can increase your visibility on Twitter and build meaningful relationships with other users.

This will help others know about your expertise or knowledge on different stuff, and also what types of opinions you have on different types of topics on Twitter in our out of your niche.

PRO TIP: If you’re competition friendly and watch it daily, then just try crossing your past 28th-day impressions and replies, at the start, to get a daily motivation and goal. 😉

Example: Today is 17 Feb and you have goals to cross the impressions and replies of 17th Jan only. Your day goal is to defeat yourself every day. Cool?

Tell me how it went in replies or in my twitter DMs.

Keep engaging and keep getting better.

See you, next week creators.

Cheers, Raj!
