There are plenty of automated services that allow you to schedule tweets, even Twitter itself provided you sign up for a business account. Free applications like Hootsuite and TweetDeck offer you the ability to manage one or multiple Twitter accounts. Part of that management includes scheduling tweets.
Let’s go on and schedule a tweet using TweetDeck, so you can see how easy this is.
1. Go to TweetDeck to see your default account.
If you are not already logged into Twitter, you will need to log in. If you are already logged in, you will automatically be taken to it.
2. Select the New Tweet option located at the top of the menu located on the far left of the browser window, and click it to see the Compose New Tweet window.![TweetDeck](https://www.dummies.com/wp-content/uploads/discord-tweetdeck.jpg)
3. In the Tweet field, compose the following:
Wanna chat beyond 280 characters? Join me on Discord at [paste your permalink here] where tangents are welcome!
Graphics tend to help a tweet’s visibility, so when putting together your tweet, consider adding in an appropriate image or animated GIF, just to catch a little extra attention.
4. Click the Schedule Tweet button, located just under the Add an Image option.You see a calendar appear.
5. Set the day and time you want the tweet to go live.To remove the scheduled time for a tweet, you can click the Remove button just underneath the calendar. That only removes scheduling options, not the tweet itself.
6. Click the Tweet at [Scheduled Date] button to schedule the tweet.7. Repeat Steps 1–6 to schedule multiple tweets.
This is one way of letting people on Twitter know how to find your Discord. It’s pretty easy and only takes a few minutes to schedule a tweet to appear daily. A legitimate concern with scheduling tweets though, especially multiple tweets that are all talking about the same thing, makes your Twitter account appear insincere. Automation in Twitter is nothing new, but it does come across cold and disconnected.
So let’s look at some other options.
1. Go to Twitter to see your account.
If you are not already logged into Twitter, you will need to log in. If you are already logged in, you will automatically taken to it.
2. Click the New Tweet field located at the top left of the browser, and compose the following:Wanna chat beyond 280 characters? Join me on Discord at [paste your permalink here] where tangents are welcome!
3. Click the Tweet button, posting your tweet.4. Click the Profile in the menu along the left side of the browser window, and find your recent tweet at the top of your tweet stream.
At the Profile option, you will find all your recent tweets, along with details about your account.
5. At the top-right corner of your tweet, click the arrow to see options for the tweet.![](https://www.dummies.com/wp-content/uploads/discord-pin-profile.jpg)
6. Select the Pin to Your Profile option.
The Pin to Profile option takes one selected tweet and anchors it to the top of your Twitter account. Anyone visiting your profile will see the invite to Discord as the first tweet. Pinning a tweet concerning something important to you, like where people can join your Discord, is another terrific option in getting the word out about your server.
The limitation of pinning a tweet is that you can only pin one tweet at a time. If you have a special event coming up or a personal victory you want to highlight, that invitation will be returned to the chronological stream of your Twitter feed. It’s no big deal to re-create a tweet, so long as you get the Discord link right. When using a pinned tweet as your open invitation to the world, just know how pinned tweets work.
Remember that Profile option we were using to look at your Twitter feed? We can also try something there.
1. Go to Twitter to see your account.
2. Click the Profile option.
You are given various options to edit your Profile, visible to anyone visiting Twitter.

3. Scroll down to the Website option and enter your Discord server’s URL.
4. Click the Save button in the top-right corner of the Edit Profile window.
Your Discord server is now accessible through your profile.
If you want to feature your Discord server, but you have a website (a blog, your Twitch stream, a shortened link to a product you’re promoting, and so on) you want to feature, as well, look into your Twitter bio. If there is room for a link, you can always put your server link in there, leaving the website option free for any other URL you wish to promote.
The Twitter Profile is a terrific option for publicizing your Discord server as it is always prominently featured whenever people see your profile. If there is disadvantage to using your Twitter Profile to promote your server, it may be that people can follow you on Twitter without ever checking it. However, personal experience and case studies show that profiles do matter as they serve as your first impression. This is why it is important to have a good Profile picture, a solid Cover Photo (the image that appears at the very top of your Twitter feed), and a few of the details Twitter asks for covered.
