Determining the best time to Tweet
I know there’s a tool called Tweriod, which lets you do this thing. However, who knows about this tool’s accuracy?
In Twitter Analytics, you can get graphs, which shows at what time impressions for your Tweets are more.
If impressions on your Tweets are more at a particular time, then it is the best time to Tweet in the future.
However, it is worthwhile to note that, by seeing the impression rate of only one Tweet we cannot determine the best time. We have to track it daily, and compare it with other days and time.
You can also overview the overall impressions over time. Which is far more effective than monitoring individual Tweets.
Determining the niche or micro niche of your followers
Well, you may be certain of the niche of your followers. But I bet most of you are not aware of micro niche of your followers.
For example, I thought most of my followers are interested in SEO and blogging. But to my surprise, see the figures:
I concluded that most of my followers are interested in marketing, technology, entrepreneurship and SEO.
For me, Tweeting Tweets regarding marketing and technology are effective.
It’s also worthwhile to mention that including hashtags, for technology, marketing and SEO helps me a lot.
So, with Twitter Analytics you can easily find out the niche in which your followers are interested in. And then Tweet accordingly to increase engagement rate.

If your followers are more interested in marketing, then it’s great to use #Marketing as hashtags in your marketing related Tweets.
It can also determine the number of clicks you got on hashtags of your Tweets. By this you can easily determine how effective your hashtags strategy on Twitter is.
