Instead of relying on the clickable Retweet link, you can just copy and paste a person's tweet into your own "Compose New Tweet" box. Then put the persons Twitter handle before it e. Before the Twitter handle, put the letters "RT," ensuring that there's at least a single space between "RT," the handle and the tweet. This will post the tweet on your Twitter feed but it will not reveal the Twitter photo of the Tweet's author, as is the case when using Twitter's Retweet feature. If your Twitter profile is set to private and you want others to be able to retweet your tweets more directly by using the Retweet feature, you'll have to set your profile to the public setting.
This is also true if you're attaching hashtags to your tweets. Is it a good thing? Is it a bad thing? If you would like to read some other perspectives, here are some options.
There are, obviously enough, a number of benefits to retweeting your own content. The biggest one is to add a bit more exposure to some piece of content you want to share. It could be a joke in a tweet. It could be an image, gif, or video you want to share. Twitter is messy. A user following people might see several hundred tweets a day. Not to mention all of the outside retweets, the replies, the like notifications, the moments, and the sponsored content.
You miss so much every time you look away. This is, by the way, why so many brands talk about the importance of finding the right time of day to post. You want to catch the peak hours while as many of your followers are online and active as possible. You can simply post the same content again.
My favorite example is from , back when HootSuite decided to post the same piece of content 44 times. They got called out on it by a few people, but at the same time, they got a spike in exposure every time they posted it.
For every person who is active enough to see that you posted the same thing six times this week, there are a hundred people who only log on enough to have caught one of them.
Of course those numbers are completely made up, but the point stands. A related piece of advice comes from the non-profit sector , where they recommend retweeting yourself for added exposure without the need to come up with a new tweet every time.
Retweets can only be done once per account at a time. What do I mean? You can post a piece of content, and you can retweet that piece of content.

Your followers want content that is credible, intelligent, and valuable, so tweet using words that don't dip below 6th grade reading levels.
Retweet Others: Retweeting is similar to the concept, "You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours. Retweets can result from the quality of your content, but they can also occur from the relationships you build with your followers. Ask Others to Retweet You: If you have something valuable to share, you probably want as many people as possible to spread that content or message, and simply asking others to retweet that content can be an effective way to generate more retweets from other Twitter users.
So don't be afraid to encourage others to share your content if they find it valuable, too. Consider the Timing of Your Tweets: When sending out tweets, timing does matter. If it's too early in the day, there won't be as many people on Twitter who will retweet your content.
According to HubSpot's " Science of Timing " data, late in the day and week are the most retweetable time periods. If you have an important tweet to share and you want to maximize retweets, be sure to take into account the timing of your tweet in order to reach as many people as possible.
Direct Tweets at Influencers: If you've created content about Twitter, why not tweet it a Twitter expert like Pistachio?
If you've created content about social media marketing data, why not tweet it Social Media Scientist DanZarrella? Direct your tweets at Twitter users who are already thought leaders and experts in your industry, as these people are likely to have lots of followers. If they think your content is valuable and retweet it, you will reach many more followers -- their followers -- and these followers might value the opinion of that thought leader and retweet it, too!
Influencers have high following counts on Twitter because of their knowledge on particular subjects. Getting them involved in your conversation is bound to be beneficial. Make Your Tweets Brief: When people retweet the right way , they usually like to add a comment to or offer their opinion of the original tweet.
Remember, the length of a tweet cannot exceed characters. Not allowing room in your tweets for people to add "RT HubSpot" plus their comment, will discourage people from retweeting your tweets. The easier you make it for other people to retweet your content, the more likely they will retweet it.
Below is an example of the HubSpot account retweeting Guy Kawasaki and adding our own commentary. Include Social Media Share Buttons on Content: Encourage others who consume your content -- whether it's a blog post, an ebook, or a webinar -- to tweet about it.
