Retweeted More
Twitter is a fantastic platform. Unfortunately, the character limit can be a challenge. Tweets also have a short shelf life.
So, how do you optimize them to increase RTs and engagement? You include pictures with TwitShot. But that’s not all. You also focus on your headlines.
Retweeted More was created just for that. The service compares two Tweets on the same topic and tells you which one is likely to have the most impact.
Retweeted More is a research project, so you can submit feedback to improve the algorithm. And if you have a few minutes to spare, there is a quiz to test your own ability to distinguish better wording.
Blog Title Idea Generator
Speaking of headlines, you may remember my post on title generators. Here is another one you should add to your list: Inbound Now’s Blog Title Idea Generator.
All you have to do is visit the website and click the “Generate Title Idea” button. For more ideas, take advantage of the custom Google Search box on the page.
Looking for similar tools? WordStream’s article will certainly help.
Pablo
I designed the graphic above in 20 seconds. Want my secret? Well, there is none. I used Pablo, Buffer’s latest tool.
Pablo comes with 130 inspirational quotes and background photos from Unsplash.com, as well as the ability to style your image to your heart’s content.
Not only can you add secondary text, a logo, or your own image. You can also blur or make your background black and white, and change your font type, size, or color.
When you are done, share the image on Twitter and Facebook, or save it to your computer for use anywhere you see fit.
Right now, it’s my favorite graphic design tool after Canva!
Google+ Page Analysis
Do you need a quick analysis of your Google+ page? Check out Steady Demand’s audit tool.
This tool tells you what is working or not, with links to resources to help you correct mistakes. For example, you will know if you forgot to list your website URL or associate your YouTube account with your Page.
Scroll down the results to see how well your latest updates are doing. The quality score is based on length, mentions, and hashtags.
Since you can audit any Page, why not use the tool keep an eye on your competitors via their posts?
Coffitivity
Working from home is a blessing. It can also be a productivity killer because you don’t see many people during the day.
The solution is to spend time at your local coffee shop…
…Or let Coffitivity re-create the experience for you. The website endlessly loops different scenes and lets you decide how loud or quiet you want the volume to be.
You can also bring Coffitivity with you anywhere you go with the Android and iOS apps.
Now, it’s your turn to speak. Do you know a tool or service that you think would fit in my next monthly roundup? Feel free to leave a link in the comment section below. I will have a look for potential inclusion.
