In today's digital world, the use of social media is essential for companies to strengthen their brand presence and reach European audiences. One effective way to achieve this is through Twitter advertising. With over 330 million active users, Twitter offers an impressive platform to increase engagement, retain customers and ultimately drive business growth [1].
Through the targeted use of Twitter advertising companies can not only appeal to their target group, but also increase their brand awareness and even improve their search engine rankings [2]. This is achieved, among other things, by placing relevant Keywords in the biography and tweets, which increases visibility on the platform [4].
Advantages of Twitter advertising
The Twitter advertising offers a number of advantages. It enables companies to address their target group in a targeted manner and increase engagement through interactive content. The platform can also be used as an effective tool for search engine optimisation (SEO) to increase visibility on the internet [2][4].
Increase brand awareness
By posting regularly and using hashtags, companies can increase their brand awareness on Twitter. They do this by getting involved in current trends and thus arousing interest in their brand. When your tweets go viral, you reach even more people and strengthen your position as a brand [1].
Example:** A company from the fashion industry regularly used relevant hashtags to promote their spring collection. Through targeted interaction with the target group and the sharing of images, the brand was not only able to increase engagement, but also increase sales by 20 %.
Targeted customer approach
Thanks to Twitter Analytics, companies can recognise exactly when their target group is most active. This makes it possible to post content at the best times and thus maximise the engagement rate. In addition, direct interactions via tweets and surveys can strengthen customer loyalty [1].
Example of a targeted customer approach: A company in the food industry regularly conducts surveys to find out which products customers prefer. This information then flows into product development and strengthens customer trust in the brand.
Optimisation for SEO through Twitter
Another way to realise the full potential of Twitter advertising is to utilise the platform for SEO. By placing relevant keywords in the biography and tweets, companies can improve their visibility on Google and other search engines. This is done by Google indexing tweets and profiles and displaying them frequently in search results [4][8].
BEST PRACTICE with a customer (name hidden due to NDA contract): A company in the financial services sector carried out a thorough analysis of the keywords used by their target audience. These were then integrated into their Twitter bio and tweets, which resulted in their tweets appearing more frequently both on the platform and in search engine rankings.
Customised target group orientation
One of the strongest functions of Twitter advertising is the ability to address target groups in a customised way. Companies can organise campaigns so that they only reach people who use certain keywords or follow certain influencers [7].
Example of target group orientation: A company from the technology sector targeted its Twitter campaign at developers and engineers by using relevant technology keywords. This led to a significant increase in website visits and the number of followers.
Twitter advertising as a way to strengthen customer service
Twitter also offers companies the opportunity to provide direct customer service. By using direct messages, customer enquiries can be processed immediately, which strengthens customer loyalty and offers additional points of contact for potential buyers [5].
Example of customer service: A company in the retail sector uses Twitter to process customer concerns quickly. This leads to higher customer satisfaction and increases trust in the brand, which in turn leads to stronger customer loyalty.
My analysis
To summarise, it can be said that Twitter advertising is an indispensable tool for companies to strengthen their brand presence and promote business growth. Through the targeted placement of keywords and customised targeting, companies can increase their visibility and engagement with their target audience. iROI coaching helps companies develop effective Twitter advertising campaigns to exploit the platform's full potential.
