Don't sleep on Twitter for SEO, see my stats

Happy Friday Reader!

I hope you've hit some of your website goals this week.

Even getting a small win can feel like a massive improvement sometimes.

Take this for example:

About a month ago, I published a blog post with some resources on how to learn SEO for free.

I shared the link to that post on Twitter—which is my main social media hangout these days—and the tweet was a dud.

Barely anyone saw it, liked it, or even clicked on the link to read the post.

But then I tweeted that same link again this week and it went kinda viral.

Just look at these stats:

76,108 impressions
3,014 engagements
229 profile visits
610 link clicks

(There's already a lesson there if you picked up on it...)

Now, I'm mentioning all of this because I actually used to hate Twitter.

In fact, I failed numerous times trying to use the platform to market several different businesses.

Twitter just seemed like a stupid social media channel that was only good for celebrities and big brands who naturally attract attention.

But now I freaking love Twitter because I finally figured it out.

In fact, Twitter has become a core part of my SEO Chatter business to get more daily website traffic, quality backlinks, and precious SERP real estate in Google.

And once you know how to optimize your Twitter account the right way for SEO and take advantage of all of the powerful backlink opportunities it can provide, then you'll probably want to make it your social media channel of choice too.

To help you get started with that, I've put together two new SEO blog posts for you:

How to Use Twitter for SEO:

How to Use Twitter for Backlinks:

Those two guides will take all of the guesswork out of how to maximize your Twitter account to help you get closer to your SEO and traffic goals.

Enjoy!
