How to Increase Twitter shares from your blog or website

Looking to get more social shares for your next blog post or online guide? By creating a pre-populated tweet link, you can create a hyperlink that automatically generates a tweet when clicked.

 

Try this for an example!

 

To create a pre-populated tweet link, start with: 


  http://twitter.com/home/?status=

 

Following the equal sign, add the text you would like to tweet but add a plus sign (+) for each space.

 

Add URLs, bit.ly goo.gl links, or Twitter handles as you would normally write them. If you would like to include a hashtag, replace the pound sign (#) with %23.

Here is what the URL would look like if we wanted to add a tweet link to this post:




    http://twitter.com/home/?status=How+to+increase+%23Twitter+share:+goo.gl/IP3JeX

Tweet it!

 

You can test the URL in your browser before adding it as a hyperlink to your content to make sure the formatting looks correct.
