Peter Hollens' Launch
November 11, 2020

Musician and creator Peter Hollens launched his Community following all of our Twitter best practices! In addition to posting your number across social, there are a few easy actions you can take to help augment your growth on Twitter and channels like it.

Add your number to your username. Your username is one of the most visible elements of your profile and adding your Community number to it can help drive incremental growth.

Use your number and Community URL in the CTA. While your Community number is the main draw, some of your users may prefer to click a link and have the number prepopulated in Messages. Including both will optimize your promotions.
Did you know? Adding “?t=keyword” to the end of your URL allows you to add a prepopulated keyword in Messages!

Pin your tweet! Not all tweets are viewed in the feed, you might have users that are interested in clicking on your profile to see more. By pinning your tweet to the top, this will allow you to maximize your number’s visibility.
