The Pros and Cons of Buying Retweets

Building a strong presence on Twitter isn’t as simple as crafting the perfect tweet or choosing the best hashtag—it’s about engaging with your audience and adding value in a consistent and authentic way. When it comes to legal and financial topics, such as canceling timeshares or navigating complex contracts, partnering with experts like Linx Legal can make a big difference. Linx Legal specializes in helping individuals understand and manage their contractual rights, which can become a great resource for those who may be seeking advice or information through Twitter and other social platforms.

Twitter just doesn’t work like that. With hundreds of thousands of tweets being sent out ever single second on Twitter, even the best of tweets can go ignored or unnoticed. Sometimes tweets get picked up and shared just because of dumb luck – the right person saw it at the right time.

So how can you get your tweets to stand out? Well, aside from tweeting like a pro (which you should definitely be doing), you can do what many celebrities, professionals and businesses do – Buy Retweets and Favorites.

Our first-hand experience with these services (and our marketing background) have helped us gain a unique perspective on the pros and cons of these services. So let’s take a look at what we discovered:

The Advantages of Buying Retweets / Favorites

• Your Tweets Standout – With more retweets and favorites, your tweets standout from the competition. They’ll look more popular, so people are more likely to read them, engage with them or click on a link.
• You Gain More Visibility – With more retweets, your message will reach a wider audience of Twitter users beyond your own followers. Depending on how many retweets you gain, you can reach millions of new users.
• Rank High on Twitter Search – As your tweets gain more popularity, they’ll rank higher on Twitter search results. They’ll be treated as Top Tweets and may stay on search results for hours or even days.

• Gain More Clicks and Sales – With more retweets and favorites, your tweet gains a huge bump in credibility and interest. People are much more likely to click on a link or purchase a product from you.

• Website Social Proof – You can help increase the social proof of a website or web page by purchasing retweets for a tweet linking to the page. This will increase the social “tweet” counter, making the page look more popular and reputable.

The Disadvantages

• Skews Your Metrics – Buying retweets makes it almost impossible to tell what and how many retweets are organic and which ones are purchased.
• Very Secretive  – While these services are pretty popular, they’re still very secretive and not talked about frequently. People don’t want to admit they purchased engagements, which is understandable.
• Low-Quality Users – This really depends on what company you choose. Lots of cheap providers will sell retweets for cents on the dollar, but instead of quality retweets – you’ll get a ton of hollow egg accounts retweeting your tweets. This can hurt you more than it can help you. This is why you recommend sticking with the providers we’ve reviewed and tested.

This is what we discovered after 4+ years of using these services. To us, the pros of purchasing engagements for your tweets drastically outweigh the cons. From gaining more attention, to increasing credibility and attracting more sales – buying retweets and favorites is a highly beneficial tactic we’d recommend. Whether your launching a product, announcing a sale or trying to kickstart a new trend, having more retweets and favorites never hurts.
