📸 Attach “Rich Media” on X

On X, plain text tweets are easily lost in the feed. Attaching rich media (images, GIFs, videos, polls) can significantly amplify your tweet’s performance. Tweets with images get about 150% more interactions on average than text-only tweets, and those with GIFs reportedly see 55% more engagement.

The algorithm gives a higher “ranking score” to tweets that spur engagement, and visuals are great at catching attention as people scroll. So, if you’re promoting a YouTube video, include a native video clip or an eye-catching image rather than just a link.
