Twitter Tip #1: Updating

Table of Contents

If you have problems keeping your tweets up-to-date and in a constant stream, consider using programs where they can be stored, and “uploaded” according to a schedule. You will be able to write a tweet and release it multiple times, in relevant dates – such as holidays and events.

Twitter Tip #2: Availability

Make sure you use a software product that informs you when you receive direct messages and @ mentions. Being active and responsive will help you attract and maintain users. If users think that you’re just spouting sales material for self promotion, they won’t stay followers for long.

Twitter Tip #3: Readability

Make sure you proofread every tweet you make. It might seem trivial, but making sure that tweets use good grammar and have no spelling mistakes, will make you seem more professional, and your tweets will be more readable. If your followers are having a hard time understanding you, they won’t stay with you for long

Twitter Tip #4: Followers’ expectations

If you are famous for a certain type of product or occupation, your followers expect you to dispense knowledge or quips regarding it. If those types of updates are scarce or non existent, the amount of followers you have will slowly reduce, and it’ll be hard getting them back.

Twitter Tip #5: Self-creation

You need to make sure that the amount of self-created updates is high enough. Don’t just post a joke you just heard, that everyone else already knows. Your followers are looking for something new, preferably something that is related to you – either personally or by occupation.

Twitter Tip #6: Retweets

Retweeting is fine, as long as you don’t do it often. Your followers aren’t following you in order to get someone else’s updates and advice – make sure that you have more content that you created in your stream, than retweets and re-tellings.

Twitter Tip #7: Manual retweets or automatic

If you do decide to retweet make sure that you use the manual way to retweet. It is more cumbersome and takes more time, but your followers will be able to see you and your avatar next to it, and you will advertise yourself even further doing that.

Twitter Tip #8: Avoid automatic retweeting

By using Twitter’s automatic retweeting feature, you might be saving yourself time and hassle, but you’re passing it to your users. Your users will see tweets by people they don’t follow and they might think that they’ve been infected with a virus, or that they got spam. 

Twitter Tip #9: Use automatic retweeting to your advantage

If you decide – after all – to use the automatic retweeting feature in Twitter, use it to retweet things by people that you discuss with, and that recommend their followers to follow you. If you retweet regular followers’ tweets it will make them feel that you’re reading their updates, and that you care about them.

Twitter Tip #10: Avoid proxies and official-speak

If people started following you because of who you are and what you’ve done, don’t use people to update your tweeter feed for you. Followers will feel the lack of response and the official-speak that often characterize that type of feed. They will quickly stop following or they’ll stop paying attention to you.

Twitter Tip #11: How to make the best out of official-speak

If you don’t have the time and the want to go through and read hundreds and thousands of tweets by your followers, and all you can provide is a Tweeter account that doesn’t offer personal information and views, use that account to publicize events where people can get what they want – personal views and information. 

Twitter Tip #12: Automatic retweet – retweet friends’ feeds

If you still choose to use the automatic retweet function that is built-in into Twitter, you need to pick and choose which ones to retweet that way. The best option is to retweet friends’ tweets, or companies and individuals that work with you or are related to you. It will provide you with extra publicity, since they talk about you and interact with you.

Twitter Tip #13: If you must use a proxy.

If you still opt to use an official Twitter account, instead of a personal one, it is best to state that – that the official one is maintained by proxies. You also need to offer a personal account, which you can update less regularly – if people want your view, they won’t mind as much about the lack of updates.

Twitter Tip #14: Follow quality accounts to get better followers

Follow people that update often with new material. Not ones that update too much and with self-promoting updates. The people you will follow might follow you back, and they might advertise your account for you. The quality of their accounts affects the quality of the advertisement.
