The power of the Trends list

Your audience is online right now. Are they talking about you?

Youth attention is the most valuable currency in marketing, and Twitter is where it gathers. Influencers are how it moves. Trends are how it becomes visible.

The Trends list is the most valuable digital billboard in South Africa, except it is alive, interactive and driven by people. Brands that show up in that conversation win. Brands that stay silent get scrolled past.

FAQ

Twitter trend questions, answered

Talk to a strategist

How do you get a hashtag trending on Twitter (X) in South Africa?

Trending is about lots of people posting about the same topic at the same time. We match the right influencers from our network to your goal, brief them all with one message and one hashtag, then coordinate when they post and engage. That surge of real conversation is what pushes your hashtag onto the South African Trends list.

How long does a Twitter trend last?

Trends usually last from a few hours to a couple of days, depending on how much conversation keeps going. With the right plan we can keep a hashtag trending for hours. For Coca-Cola's #CokeStudio we kept it trending for more than seven hours straight.

How quickly can you get my brand trending?

For the best results we like a few days to plan, brief and line up the right influencers. But we can move fast when it matters: for Stella Artois we had two hours' notice and had the brand trending within one hour.

Can you guarantee my hashtag will trend?

Nobody controls the X algorithm, and big breaking news can affect any trend. What we can tell you is that trending is not luck for us. It is a planned, coordinated process with a strong track record, including #1 trends for Coca-Cola, Nedbank, Binance and Oppo. We will be honest with you about what is realistic for your budget and timing.

What kind of influencers do you use?

We have all types of influencers on Twitter in our 1,000+ strong network, from micro influencers with loyal followings to well-known personalities with huge reach. We pick the mix that suits your objective, and our team vets every tweet before it goes live.

How much does a Twitter trend campaign cost?

It depends on how many influencers you need, how many hashtags you want to trend, how long you want to stay on the list and the type of content involved. Book a strategy call and we will give you a clear quote for your goal.
