25 Tweets That Got Over 25,000 Retweets In 2018

2018 has been a wild ride so far, and it seems more and more the best way to follow the action is through Twitter. It may not be the most trusted source, but it is the fastest.

Every day hundreds of tweets go viral, getting retweeted so much you’d have to be living under a rock not to see them. On the off chance you are crawling out from underneath that rock to read this post, I’ve generously gathered some of the most retweeted tweets of 2018 here. You’re welcome.

It’s a common misconception that the only way for your tweet to get thousands of retweets is because you have thousands of followers. Not true. Many of these huge tweets come from small accounts. These tweets blow up by snowballing. They hit a nerve and get passed along until they hit a big account or a celebrity and then BAM. Exponential growth. So don’t give up. Maybe one day I’ll be putting you on one of these lists.
