# Quick Tips to Keep Up: Picture This - More Social Media Shares

Is there any cliché more often repeated than "A picture is worth a thousand words"?  Probably not.  It is repeated because it is true.  Inbound marketing pioneer HubSpot found that photos on Facebook generate four times more shares than links. ([Click to tweet!](http://ctt.ec/12omi))

 

Images increase shares on Twitter, too.  According to Buffer, tweets with an image are shared 150% more than those without. ([Click to tweet!](http://ctt.ec/_Duon))

 

**Our advice:** Put as much effort into finding engaging images to go with your blog and the social media posts promoting it as you do into writing the copy.  Picture this – a thousand words might be worth a thousand more social media shares with the right image.
