Twitter Tips

Here is a random compilation of Twitter tips that you can use to maximize your earning potential with Twitter in your marketing efforts!

• If you have tons of followers, chances are good that not all of them will read every tweet that you send. If you got a good reaction or a good bit of traffic from one of your tweets, try posting it again at another time. Preface it with something like, “Did you miss this?” or “Last week retweet”.

• On the right sidebar of your Twitter page, you'll see a link to your RSS feed. Take this feed and submit it to RSS directories, just as you would do with a blog! This will increase exposure to your tweets.

• If you have lots of friends on Facebook, there is an application you can use to integrate your Twitter feed into your Facebook feed. This can lead to more followers and larger exposure overall. An application called Twittersync will actually post each tweet as a status update on your Facebook page. Unfortunately, it turns your links into text.

• Interact with your followers and take an active interest in them by replying to their tweets and retweeting. Schmooze with them – offer compliments, joke around, etc. Remember that Twitter is a community.

• If your goal is marketing, be direct with your Bio. Tell them exactly who you are. “I'm a 27-year-old marketer and blogger living in LA!” Don't post random song lyrics or an inside joke. Leave that to your personal Facebook page.

• Remember that everything you do on Twitter represents your brand. Tweeting “OMG I got so drunk last night I barfed up nachos on my friend's shoes” probably isn't the best image to portray, unless your demographic happens to be male college students or something like that.

• Don't get addicted to Twitter. Checking it every five minutes will start to interfere with the rest of your life and your business. Keep a schedule and force yourself to check it no more than every two hours or so. If you intend to publish a tweet, it's easy to start reading up on everyone else's tweets, and before you know it, half an hour has passed and you can't remember what you were going to tweet about in the first place.

That is the end of my Twitter Tutorial and I do hope you will put all this to good use.

I welcome any comments you might have.

Neil, I don't understand when you say that you can only follow 200 people a day but it shows following over 700. Does it mean that you are limited to get tweets from 200 different people?

It means that you can only actively follow 200 people a day and not the amount of followers you have.

What I think I will do next time is create using Libre Office and upload to Google Docs. Then I will have copy online and on on PC.

Hey Neil,

Great tutorials buddy! What I would suggest though is that you label your pages appropriately as this will make them searchable and make your training much easier to navigate based on "concept". Just a small update will offer a radical improvement for those going through your training.

Nice work!

Thank you Kyle, I wasn't sure what to, hence I just labelled the pagees as 1, 2 and so on. Will make the necessary changes. Wasn't too bad for my first one, only took 4 hours to do though as I had to remove all the garbage that MS Word leaves behind.

Yeah, the best thing to do is to use Google docs or to create your content right within the training creator (sometimes nice to have a back-up though).

Anyways, great tutorial and I know this is going to be very helpful to all of the "to be" tweeters out there. ;)
