Twitter Tips

Here are a few more twitter tips to potentially boost your network of peeps.

Twitter, like much of social networking is about numbers.  Quality and target is important but you need numbers, here’s why….the more followers you have the more likely that one of your tweets will be re-tweeted. Obviously if you have been following some of this Twitter stuff you know that you need to be providing good, interesting and relevant content first, that is the first thing to increase the chances of a re-tweet and not boring your followers to death.

A quick way to increase the number of followers is to follow people that you find interesting or that you share a common passion with.  I tend to follow artist and internet marketers…the two things I have passion for and do for a living.  Once you begin to start following these folks, many of them will follow you back if  they see you also have an interest in something that they like or do.  You can use the search tool in twitter or better yet, use tweet deck and the search tool there to really focus on your target market.

Another thing that will help is to have an appealing background for your page.  Have something that you put together yourself to be totally unique.  Link to your blogor website or a squeeze page with an opt-in for your free product. If you need a free background here are some free ones  http://www.tweetbacks.com/

Another cool tool I have talked about very little is the “Viral Tweet Generator”.  This is a piece of software basically that lets people send out a tweet about a site or or product that they want to promote.  It can be done with one click of the mouse and then they are taken to a special download page where they can get a free gift from your own site.  I dont have it set up for me personally as I just found out about it in the last few days.  Here is a free copy http://viralurl.com/ebooks4u/viraltweet

So there you have it…a few more fun tips.

until next time-
