We’ve recently expanded Promoted Tweets to appear in users’ timelines, and the results are in: Promoted Tweets in timelines are driving engagement.
Twitter is proud to offer marketers a new form of advertising that has delivered unparalleled engagement for marketers since we first launched Promoted Tweets in search. As we noted in our very first blog post, after analyzing thousands of campaigns, we’ve seen on average a 3-5% engagement rate with Promoted Tweets in search.
As we’ve expanded Promoted Tweets into timelines, we’ve been blown away with the level of engagement that brands continue to achieve. Here are just a few of the very first advertisers who’ve tested Promtoted Tweets in timelines as a way to extend the reach of their message to more users.
Note: Engagement with Promoted Tweets is defined as a click, Retweet, reply, or favorite, and all impressions are free since advertisers only pay for engagement on a CPE basis.
