Using Twitter Ads

Millions of people send and receive Tweets every day. Without applying the right social media marketing techniques in posting your brand’s products and services on Twitter, it might get lost with all the rest. For this, Twitter ads come into the picture.

Advertising on Twitter is the perfect chance for your brand to promote your products and services and reach the widest target audience. Know that Twitter ad formats are relatively easy to work with. Thus, any digital marketing company in the Philippines would agree that this is the best time for you to make the most out of them.

Types of Twitter Ads

You are provided with five common types of Twitter ads to select from and integrate into your social media marketing strategy and achieve your business goals. These types include the following:

  1. Promoted Tweets

    These look similar to regular Tweets, and they can also be liked, retweeted, and commented on. However, advertisers pay for these contents to display to people who are not following them on Twitter. Furthermore, they appear in the timeline of targeted users, on user profiles, or at the top of search results. Also, they are labeled “Promoted” in the lower-left corner.

  2. Promoted Accounts

    These Twitter ads allow you to promote your brand’s entire Twitter account instead of just promoting one Tweet. They are displayed in the timeline of potential followers, the “Who to Follow” suggestions, and search results. They also include a Follow button, aside from being labeled “Promoted.”

  3. Promoted Trends

    On Twitter’s right-hand side, you can locate a list of trending topics, a collection of the most popular keywords and hashtags currently used. Twitter users can interact with Promoted Trends similarly to any other trending topic. As with the previous Twitter ads, they are labeled as “Promoted” for targeted users. They also appear under the “Trends for You” section in the timeline and the Explore tab.

  4. Promoted Moments

    These ads appear on Twitter stories and can be created on the desktop. These Twitter ads are a collection of similar Tweets that tell a story. Moreover, using this ad format means that you can also share Twitter story ads longer than 280 characters. You can also sponsor Promoted Moments curated by other brands.

  5. Automated Ads

    Using the Twitter Promote Mode automatically promotes your brand’s profile and your Tweets. Twitter refers to this format as the “always on advertising solution” that adds your first ten Tweets in a day to a Promoted Tweets campaign, which targets your selected audience.

Then, head to https://ads.Twitter.com/, and indicate your country and time zone. Click “Let’s go,” and you now have access to the Twitter Ads Manager, which lets you track your advertising campaigns and analyze metrics.

  

  1. Choose Advertising Objective

 Here, you need to choose the objective that you want to achieve when you use Twitter ads. The selected objective determines the type of engagement and actions which you will have to pay for.

You are provided with three objective types: Awareness, Consideration, and Conversion. Each is billed differently per activity.

Select Campaign Objective

Choosing “Awareness” increases your reach by ensuring that the maximum number of people sees your Promoted Tweets. It also allows you to run a short video ad at the beginning of videos from premium content partners.

If you chose “Consideration,” people will get to watch your videos or GIFs. Moreover, they can install your app, head to your website, and maximize engagement with your Promoted Tweets. It can also help you build your Twitter audience.

Lastly, if people have already downloaded and installed your app, then selecting “Conversion” will promote app re-engagements and encourage them to open and use it.

For the article’s sake, under the “Awareness” objective, we will select “Reach.” You will be taken to the campaign setup screen where you will need to enter your campaign name, its funding source, its daily and total budgets, and its duration.
