How to Write Viral Twitter/X Posts

Twitter/X is one of the most powerful platforms for building a personal brand and driving engagement. With a 280-character limit, every word counts. The key is crafting posts with strong hooks that stop the scroll.

The Twitter/X Algorithm

First minutes matter: Engagement in the first 30-60 minutes determines if your post gets broader distribution.

Replies beat likes: Replies signal meaningful engagement and boost reach more than likes or retweets.

Dwell time counts: How long people spend reading your post affects its reach.

Native content wins: Posts without external links typically perform better.

Post Formats That Perform

  • Hot takes: Contrarian opinions that spark debate get massive engagement.
  • Thread hooks: Tease valuable content to drive replies and follows.
  • Numbered lists: Easy to scan and often get bookmarked.
  • Personal stories: Relatable moments that build connection.
  • Questions: Direct engagement drivers that boost replies.
  • One-liners: Punchy, quotable takes that get retweeted.

The Perfect Hook Formula

Your first line determines if people read the rest. Effective hooks include:

Pattern interrupt: Start with something unexpected.

Bold claim: Make a statement that demands attention.

Curiosity gap: Tease information without giving it all away.

Specific number: "3 things I learned" or "$50k in 30 days"

Controversy: Challenge a widely held belief.

Hashtag Best Practices

  • Use 1-3 hashtags maximum (more looks spammy)
  • Place hashtags at the end of the tweet
  • Mix broad and niche hashtags
  • Avoid hashtags in serious/professional posts
  • Create branded hashtags for campaigns

Posting Strategy

  • Best times: 8-10am and 4-6pm on weekdays
  • Frequency: 3-10 tweets per day for growth
  • Engage quickly: Reply to comments in the first hour
  • Quote tweet: Add value to others' posts
  • Build in public: Share your journey and learnings
