How to Create a Recycle of Your Blog Post on Twitter with Animated Gifs

I want to share with you how to create a recycle of your blog post on Twitter with animated gifs.

CHOOSE A BLOG POST

First, you will need a blog post that is in the form of a list.

Here is a text version of the blog post I used (it happened to be for the holidays):

How NOT to Let the Grinch Steal Your Christmas

1. Prioritize people over presents.
2. Free yourself from having to attend every party.
3. Meet a simple need of someone less fortunate than you.
4. Drive around the neighborhood to view holiday decorations.
5. Warm up some hot chocolate and sit down to watch "It's A Wonderful Life" starring Jimmy Stewart.
6. Make a phone call (or send a letter in the mail) to that person you hurt and say you're sorry.
7. Remind yourself of the Christmas story.

SEARCH GIPHY.COM

Next,  you will want to search http://www.giphy.com for appropriate gifs that go along with your subject matter.

(I searched "Grinch Christmas" to find mine.)

GRAB AND POST YOUR GIF

To grab each gif to post on Twitter, left click on the gif you want to go to its main page, then right click on the gif and choose "Save Image as" to a folder on your computer.

Next, upload the gif as a picture file to Twitter, add the appropriate text from your blog post (see my example below) and then tweet.

Follow this same process for each of your points and across your scheduled plan.

And that's it.

Voila!

(It really is that simple.)

You have created a recycle of your blog post on Twitter with animated gifs.
