Twitter used to be the go-to place for sharing quick thoughts, updates, and conversations.
But now? It’s got some serious competition.
Platforms like Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon are growing fast.
They offer almost the same features—and your audience is probably checking them out, too.
So what’s the smart move?
Since these platforms are almost the same in terms of functionality you no longer need to choose just one, you can share the same Twitter posts on these platforms and gain attention from all of them.
It's called Twitter crossposting and it's what we are going to learn about today.
What is Twitter crossposting
It's when you take something you post on Twitter like a Tweet, image, or video, and share it on other social media platforms.
Instead of creating brand-new posts for Instagram, Threads, and LinkedIn, you reuse the content you’ve already made on Twitter.
For example, if you Tweet a helpful tip or an announcement, you can also post that same message on LinkedIn or Threads. If you share a video on Twitter, you can upload it to TikTok or Instagram Reels.
Crossposting helps you show up in more places without doing extra work.
Why should you crosspost your Twitter content to other platforms?
1. Save Time and Effort
Creating good content takes time.
With crossposting, you only need to create that content once on Twitter. Then, you can easily share it on other platforms like Threads, LinkedIn, or Bluesky without starting from scratch.
2. Reach More People (Who Aren’t on Twitter)
Not everyone hangs out on Twitter these days. After Elon Musk took the lead a lot of people switched to other X alternatives.
Crossposting helps you reach these audiences by showing up where they already spend their time.
If you’re only posting on Twitter, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity to connect with people who have left the platform.
3. Get More Value Out of Every Tweet
A Tweet might get attention for a few hours (if you’re lucky), and then it disappears.
But when you crosspost that same Tweet to other platforms, you extend it.
You’re squeezing more value out of the work you’ve already done.
Manual Crossposting vs. Automated Crossposting
When you’re crossposting Twitter content, there are two ways to do it:
Manual crossposting and automated crossposting.
