When you pin a tweet to your timeline, it will be seen by everyone who views your profile. You can even add images to your pinned tweets or create a poll. You can also retweet a pinned tweet. This article explains the process step-by-step. So, get started now! To make the process easier, follow the tips in this article.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whenever_you_pin_a_tweet_to_your_timeline_everyone_that_views_your_profile_will_see_that_tweet\"><\/span>Whenever you pin a tweet to your timeline, everyone that views your profile will see that tweet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To pin a tweet to your timeline, go to your Twitter profile. Find the tweet you want to pin and click the &#8220;inverted triangle&#8221; next to the Tweet&#8217;s name. Once you&#8217;ve clicked on the inverted triangle, a menu will pop up. From here, select &#8220;Pin to Profile.&#8221; Then, wait for confirmation. Then, refresh the page to confirm the pinned tweet.<\/p>\n<p>You can also pin an existing Tweet that has some kind of social proof to it. If a particular Tweet is popular, it&#8217;s more likely to be retweeted. This adds social proof to your profile. People don&#8217;t interact with just any content on the Internet. The bar is much higher with pinned Tweets, and the more popular a Tweet is, the more likely it is to be shared.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_images_to_pinned_tweets\"><\/span>Adding images to pinned tweets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding images to your pinned tweets on Twitter is a great way to make them stand out from the rest. In fact, tweets with images get 35% more retweets than those without. But be sure not to use the full 140 characters for the image. Instead, use a smaller image, one that draws attention to your pinned Tweet. The bright orange image Greatist uses in its pinned tweet is a great example of this.<\/p>\n<p>Pinned Tweets are free ad spots, and using them to drive traffic to your website is an excellent way to get more traffic. They can encourage your readers to subscribe to your newsletter, read a blog post, or try a new product. Remember to be clear on what you&#8217;re trying to promote and what they should do next! When using the pinned Tweet option, use a picture or animated GIF that demonstrates the benefit of the product or service.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_poll_with_a_pinned_tweet\"><\/span>Creating a poll with a pinned tweet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Creating a poll on Twitter is easy, and can be done on the mobile version, too. First, you need to click on the poll icon next to the media and location icons on the Twitter homepage. Once there, type in the question to be polled and tap on the &#8220;Tweet&#8221; button to share the poll with your followers. Your poll will be live for 24 hours, so make sure you pin it to the top of your timeline.<\/p>\n<p>You can create polls on almost anything &#8211; whether it is a news story, a topic related to your business, or a general topic. Make sure the topic is relevant to your brand or product, and that it&#8217;s fun to answer. You can also make a poll commenting on a trending concept or news story. The more people participate, the better. But if you want to get the most out of your poll, keep it relevant.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Retweeting_a_pinned_tweet\"><\/span>Retweeting a pinned tweet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking to expand your following, retweeting a pinned Tweet on Twitter can help you get the word out. When people see your Tweet, they are more likely to interact with it, which increases your social proof. Also, people don&#8217;t just interact with anything, so pinning a Tweet can help you build influence. Here&#8217;s how to retweet a pinned Tweet on Twitter:<\/p>\n<p>Before you retweet a pinned tweet on Twitter, you should first understand the rules. By default, you can only pin one tweet at a time. If you try to retweet the same tweet twice, it will automatically remove the first one. There are a few exceptions, however. A pinned tweet can be a regular tweet or a retweet of a quote.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unpinning_a_pinned_tweet\"><\/span>Unpinning a pinned tweet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To unpin a pinned tweet on Twitter, follow the steps given below. Firstly, open the Twitter app on your computer and tap on the 3-horizontal dot icon. Then, click on the &#8220;Pin to profile&#8221; option. You will be directed to a pop-up window where you can unpin the tweet. You may have to do this several times if you are unable to unpin the tweet within the first few minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Next, navigate to your Twitter profile. If your profile contains a number of pinned tweets, you&#8217;ll want to unpin one of them before it becomes too cluttered and difficult to find. The reason behind the pinning feature is to promote more of your tweets. People see pinned tweets when they visit your profile page, making them a great way to draw attention to your content and create a strategic CTA. It&#8217;s no wonder that many authors use this feature for their sale pages.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"295\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"527\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aDQZNC0zdpQ\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do You Pin a Tweet on Twitter?
