A while ago, Guy Kawasaki shared that he re-tweets his tweets. No, not like a broken record! His philosophy is that good tweets should be repeated because news travels globally and across many different time zones. Guy experimented by resending the same tweet every 4 hours for a 24 hour period. He found that all 6 tweets had almost the same amount of comparable clicks to read, and retweeted by followers all across the globe.
Instead of 700 retweets in 24 hours, he got 2800. Talk about getting more mileage per tweet! LOL!
Guy uses a fancy program to do his retweeting and run reports – but there are free options out there.
Tweet Old Post is one of my absolute favorite plugins. However; there is something you should be aware of… the newest version DOESN’T have the ability to selectively block certain posts from being tweeted. Yeah! – that stinks!
For example; you might want to block an old post about a workshop or teleseminar you had last year. Or, perhaps some personal posts that don’t need to be re-run.
So, if you already have Tweet Old Post on your system, DO NOT update it to v. 3.2.6. And, if you already have, and want to go back – you still can. YAY!
This page has previous versions http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tweet-old-post/download/
I deleted mine and re-installed v.3.2.5, via the upload zip file feature in WordPress, no need to ftp, and it works just fine. Even my settings from before are still there (because the info wasn’t deleted in the database).
Joy!
