What Can I Do with X/Twitter?
X/Twitter is a social media platform. Its feed consists of many kinds of posts. They are made of text, which has a limit of 280 characters. You can post photos or videos to accompany the text or post them solo. If you decide to post a video, you have a limit of 2 minutes and 20 seconds in horizontal or vertical format.
What Is the X/Twitter Conversation Like?
A side effect of how easy and fast it is to create content on Twitter is that the conversation or zeitgeist can change quickly. This can happen because of a flood of reactions to a real-world event. In the same way, it’s interesting that someone posted what everyone wants to talk about now.
In comparison, a platform like YouTube that takes a while to create content can take time to catch up to the community’s conversation. So, if you want to post quick stories or updates, X/Twitter is for you.
Why Use X?
– Cultivate a Community
X is a great place to cultivate a community and interact with them more regularly than on other platforms. A quick text post or photo is already community interaction. YouTube, for example, would take almost a week to film, edit, and release a video.
– Promote Your Website and Other Social Media Profiles
Another great reason to use X/Twitter is that it’s for cross-promotional events. If you have a website or YouTube channel you want to promote, Twitter is a place for it. In that way, you can reach people who don’t follow you.
As long as someone interacts in some way with your post, their followers can potentially see this interaction and, therefore, see your post. They can then interact with it, which will spread it further, and so on.
– Generate Feedback
X is also a great place to get feedback from the community. While you can already get this through your comments on your YouTube videos or podcasts, Twitter is an additional source of feedback.
– Source for Trending Topics
Another thing you can do on X/Twitter is research. You can easily find trending topics and use this information to your advantage. You can find new, relevant hashtags and add them to your content to reach even more people.
Not only can you research additional hashtags to use, but you can also find what topics or ideas are resonating with people. This can help inform your content creation. You can see what people want to learn about or discover and use this information to fuel your creativity.
