On twitter, tags make things trend.
Tags could be specific '#' based tweets, or just words. The word trend itself means something that's common, so a trending topic is one that's being tweeted about everywhere.
This morning, for example, 'Spongebob Squarepants' was a trending topic.
All you need to do, to make your tweet appear when people click a trending topic, is to include the trending words, or tags, in your tweet. I often use tags, and you know it's worked, because it becomes blue.
For example, #Wearyourparamoreshirtday seems to be a large trending tag today- if I included this in my tweet, it would turn blue.
Don't be alarmed if it only appears on your homepage at first - it will show up on the tags page too!
