How to Create and Schedule Twitter Threads with RecurPost

Twitter threads are a fantastic way to share detailed stories, ideas, or updates in a series of connected tweets. With RecurPost, you can now easily create and schedule Twitter threads, allowing you to maintain a consistent and engaging presence on Twitter without having to manually post each tweet.

This article will walk you through the process of using this feature and provide additional tips to make the most out of it.

What is a Twitter Thread?

A Twitter thread is a series of connected tweets published together as a sequence. It’s ideal for sharing longer thoughts, step-by-step guides, or storytelling that wouldn’t fit in a single tweet. Each tweet in a thread is linked to the previous one, making it easier for followers to read through your entire message in one go.

Here is an example of Twitter Threads 👇

Why Use Twitter Threads?

  • Engage Your Audience: Threads allow you to convey more information and keep your followers engaged with continuous content.
  • Boost Visibility: By creating a series of tweets, you increase the chances of visibility and engagement as each tweet in the thread can be liked, retweeted, or replied to individually.
  • Storytelling Made Easy: Share detailed stories, tutorials or updates in a structured and readable way.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: How many tweets can I include in a thread?

Q2: Do tweets in the ‘Thread’ count as Recurring Posts used separately?

No, each thread in the post (tweet) does not count as a separate post. For example, if you create a post and add 5 Threads tweets then the Recurring Posts will be considered as one post added to the library.

Yes, you can add links to each tweet in Threads using RecurPost.

Q4: Can I tag X profiles in each Thread?

Yes, you can tag X profiles using RecurPost.

Q5: Can I edit a Thread after it’s been published?

Once a Thread is published, it cannot be edited using RecurPost. However, you can delete the Thread from X (Twitter) and repost it using RecurPost if needed.

Q6. What’s the ideal number of Tweets in a thread?

The ideal Twitter thread length is around 3-7 tweets, as it allows for concise storytelling without overwhelming readers, boosting engagement while holding attention.

For complex topics, up to 10-12 tweets can work, as long as each tweet adds clear value.
