Sometimes, old is gold. Unless your site is a news site, you might want to consider auto retweeting your older posts as it helps to drive more traffic to your site. Some sites like a tutorial site have tons of articles that are still relevant even after few years. Furthermore, retweeting those old articles is good for SEO and might help to boost their ranking in search engine a little bit.
While you can still do it manually, it’s very tiresome and time consuming. Luckily, there’s a plugin specifically built to help you auto retweet those old articles. Introducing Revive Old Post plugin (formerly known as Tweet Old Post plugin).
Another good thing about this plugin is it just not auto retweet old posts, but you may also use it to auto retweet new posts. This plugin is highly configurable. You might also set the time interval between each tweet, choose number of posts to be retweet, include a hashtag, exclude categories and exclude specific posts.
Revive Old Post plugin is available for free from WordPress plugin repo. However, you may also want to buy the Pro version which comes with couple more awesome features such as support multiple social accounts, Custom Post Types support, autoretweet with image and LinkedIn support. We hope this article helped you to autoretweet old posts in WordPress. If you have any question, feel free to drop your comment below or even better, post your question in the support forum.
