Thursday Tutorials: How to Pin a Post on Twitter

Thursday Tutorials returns with a fairly simple tutorial. A few weeks ago in Tuesday Tips, we suggested to pin a post in Twitter. Today, we go through the steps to learn how to pin and unpin a post on Twitter.

First, Login to Twitter. 

Once logged in, click on your profile image either on the left or at the top right. If you click the left image, it will just take you to your profile page. If you click the top image you will have to choose to visit profile. That should take you to your profile which shows all your posts. 

Find the post that you want to pin and click on the ... (more) option on that post to create the drop down menu seen below.

Select "Pin to your profile page" to pin that post. Once you do that the following message will pop up on your screen.

Click Pin and that message will disappear and the following message will appear.

Click on view now to see your pinned post.

You can tell when you have a pinned post by the "Pinned Tweet" and thumbtack icon that's shown in the red rectangle above.

If you want to unpin the posts, you follow steps much similar to pinning the post. Click on the ... (more) button to bring up the options.

Select Unpin from profile page. Just like last time, a confirmation window will appear, similar to below.

If you are sure that you want to unpin the post, simply click unpin.  Just like before the confirmation message will pop up like below:

And with that, you're done. Pretty simple like I said.

Keep your eyes open for other tutorials.

Thursday Tutorials are a series of tutorials designed to help people who may not be as Facebook savvy as other people. Some tutorials will be targeted towards newbies to the social media world, others will include tutorials for more advanced users.

Tuesday Tips: Pin an Important, Relevant Post Once a Week

Today's tip is simple and applies to both Facebook and Twitter - I'm not positive if you can pin posts on Google+ or not, if you can, I'll mention it in a future post - Once a week pin an important and relevant post on your Twitter Account and Facebook page.  

Pinning an interesting or relevant post on a weekly basis increases visibility and distribution of your post to your views. Translation: if you want a post to be seen more often and by more users, pin it to your page/Twitter account.

Pinning is very easy and in upcoming tutorials we'll walk you through how to pin an article to your Facebook page and how to pin a tweet to your Twitter wall.
