How do Twitter Ads work?

Like Facebook, Twitter is geared at not only improving effective reach and connections but also at improving both small and large business online marketing opportunities.

Through Twitter Advertising you can promote your business-account or a single tweet with targeted keywords, tweet placement or account appearance.

So easy and flexible! Like Justagit ADX

First, Twitter advertising is cheaper than many other Pay Per Click (PPC) options. Setting up a PPC campaign using Google Adwords can be very costly due to the popularity of some keywords.

Second, the followers you earn from a Twitter campaign are real audiences. They saw your advertisement because Twitter classified them to be within your niche. This takes out the assumption of ‘maybe or maybe not’ if they saw your ads, that way you can be sure that you will be getting interested buyers.

So, how do Twitter Ads work? A step-wise approach.

You could decide to opt-in for the following parameters;

  • Tweet engagements: You can promote the rate of engagement on each tweet. You will be billed per engagement for all engagement types — retweets, replies, and so on — but only on the initial engagement with each user.
  • Followers: You want to build your Twitter audience. You’re billed for each new follower, but not for other engagements, like retweets and likes.
  • Website clicks or conversions: You want people to go to your website and take action. You’re billed per click.
