Recently, a post published on Social Media Today (originally published on http://citysand.wordpress.com/) provides a comprehensive case study about tweets and retweets. The writer took the facts and figures from Dan Zarrella’s, and written a comprehensive article to figure out why people retweets. A very informative post for the people who are addict of Twitter as well as for those who use Twitter for marketing.
Facts and figures are graphically represented in the original post but you can take the following facts as a brief summary of the full script.
• 56.69% of retweets contain a link versus 18.96% of normal tweets.
• The use of tinyurl.com has been decreased, and the use of bit.ly has been increased for URLs shortening.
• “you” is the word which is the most retweetable.
• “game” is the word which is the least retweetable.
• “Colon” is the most retweetable punctuation mark.
• “Semicolon” is the least retweetable punctuation mark.
• 5PM is the peak time for retweets.
• 9AM is the nadir time for retweets.
• Friday is the best day for retweets.
• Sunday is the worst day for retweets.
