Twitter has hit the online social community by storm. It now ranks third among all the social network websites and yet it has only been about three years. Twitter was launched in August 2006 and currently it has over six million users worldwide. So, have you done some twittering?
Twitter is a free micro-blogging website that allows people to stay connected all the time. You can sign up by visiting ‘twitter.com’; use your name when filling out the information boxes. It would be best to provide your real information so that you can also meet real people. Go to your setting and uncheck ‘protect my updates’ if you want everyone to know your updates but if you want to limit your updates to your closest friends or followers, leave it checked.
You can now send links of your Twitter account to all your friends so that they will know that you’re on Twitter.
Even if you’re not online, you can still use Twitter. When you’re a registered Twitter user, you can now access the site through your IM or mobile phone. Again, you need to check your ‘settings’ and connect your phone and IM to Twitter.
The tweets can be sent through registered devices. If you visit your web page, you can write the tweets on the entry window found at the top of your profile page. You can also send tweets from your mobile device. You can send the SMS to 40404. The caller ID of your phone is stored on your account so the tweets can be identified. If you’re in AOL, you can send the IM to TwitterIM but if you’re in Jabber or GTalk, you can send the IM to twitter.com; no matter where you’re on, all your friends and followers will receive your tweets and perhaps, they can also receive your tweets on their mobile phone.
How will you see your friends’ messages? You need to be logged to Twitter in order to add friends. In the ‘Actions’ box, click on the link ‘Add’. The search box will also allow you to find the user page of your former classmates and lost relatives/friends. Once you add someone as your friend, you can now see the tweets but only if the profile is not private. Private profiles will need a confirmation before you can start viewing the tweets.
Check the sidebar of the profile page and see who your friends are following. Perhaps you can find interesting individuals there.
It is much easier to manage a list of your friends online rather than using your mobile phone. You cam limit phone usage to receiving tweets so that even if you’re offline, you can get updates.
There are also number sets on your profile page. The numbers are for your followers and your friends (the people you follow). The numbers can tell a lot. Celebrities and public figures often have lots of followers than friends. Individuals who prefer to watch have lots of friends than followers while those who want to communicate and establish good relationships have balanced numbers.
Twittering is really a lot of fun. Sign up now and see what your friends are doing. Don’t forget to post tweets as well so that you can stay connected. Make use of the various Twitter tools to have a more exciting twitter experience.

Twitter Info
Twitter has offices in San Francisco California and it started way back in 2006. It was basically a side project of a private company but in such a short time, it has grown to be one of the most popular short messaging services all over US and other countries.
Many people access important information through Twitter such as world news and friend updates. It all started when Jack Dorsey took an interest in finding out all the activities of his friends. He saw an opportunity in the simple concept he has visualized and so he consulted his colleagues. After that, a prototype was immediately built.
A San Francisco-based creative environment, Obvious, funded the initial operation of Twitter. It took about two weeks to finish the prototype and it was finished by March 2006. However, it was launched for public use last August 2006. Later on, as the service became extremely popular, the people behind the service founded Twitter Incorporated.
Other companies providing similar service are wondering why Twitter became a big hit. Well, the answer is quite simple. People want to stay connected at all times. Twitter accepts messages from the web, SMS, instant message, mobile web, and other API projects (third party); because of these good features, many people appreciated Twitter.
Online communication often poses the problem of information overload but through Twitter, this problem is solved. When someone sends a message via Twitter, an immediate response is not expected. Being ambient is one good quality of Twitter. Updates on your friends, relatives, and family are send to your web site, IM, or phone but it is up to you to deal with such information; you can either respond to the updates or just ignore them.
By receiving updates regularly, you can keep track of the activities of your friends and loved ones. There is no pressure on your part to respond to the updates. Users are also free to switch off the updates through the ‘settings’ on their account. They can also schedule when to receive updates, whose updates to receive, and the device where they can receive the updates. So you see, the information you receive from Twitter will depend on the settings of your account.
‘Ruby on Rails’ is the application framework being used by Twitter. This allows quick and easy work. Everyday, multiple changes and new features are deployed. The skeleton code framework of Rail allows add-ons to Twitter without any problem. Their engineering team use Macintosh computers except during testing. The user interface on their website was designed using Photoshop and Omnigraffle.
Twitter’s business model is still in its research phase. The users of Twitter will soon have a chance to generate revenue but they must wait until its implementation. Right now, Twitter is concentrating more in providing excellent service to their millions of users worldwide.
Twitter pays close attention to the behavior of their users and the feature requests being sent to them. They now have a mobile site due to extreme demand from users. Still, Twitter Incorporated sticks to their philosophy – to keep everything intuitive and simple. The feature requests of various users are carefully being studied by the Twitter team.
Soon, the company will be able to attract users from all over the world who possess the right attitude and class talent towards business.

However, according to some individuals, the growth of Twitter users is not sustainable especially as a revenue model. Perhaps you’ve heard a lot of people talking about how they used Twitter to generate income. Well, some individuals were quite successful but not everyone. Besides, following endless links all the time can be very boring.
There are already claims about the death of this social network website. Some say that death is already looming. Twitter users can only wait for that day. You can never really tell. The developers of this site are still looking forward for more years of excellent service. By keeping things simple, more and more people are interested in Twitter. Users of this site vary. Some people simply want to share pictures of their favorite pets; there are those who want to promote their business online while others just want to share their ideas or interests through microblogging.
You’re also free to choose the people that you want to interact with and you’re not obliged to respond to the tweets. The 140-character tweet is very communicative and easy to construct. If you want, you can post what you’re doing right now like you’re out shopping or you’re watching a movie. Whenever you make new tweets, your friends will receive the updates. They can respond if they want to or they can ignore it.
For almost three years now, Twitter has proven that it is stable enough to meet the demands of its users worldwide. The site has been encountering constant problems and their team of experts is trying to identify what should be done in order to ensure survival. Perfection may be the goal of most organizations and humans but failure is inevitable. Still many people patronize Twitter. If you spend a few minutes online, using Twitter, you will notice that many others want to interact and develop new relationships.
Twitter is being used by companies, businesses, and individuals. They all have various needs. As long as these needs are addressed properly, Twitter can survive the coming years. Competition is natural especially in the online environment but the site has an edge over other social network websites. If more and more people will use the site, then death is still far from sight. Besides, those who are addicted to Twitter will not allow such a scenario to happen.
There’s also the issue of Twitter going down and when it finally got back, some follower and following connections were lost. The site has back ups and once the problem is fixed, everything will be back to normal. No wonder many users are freaking out – because they lost some connections. This can be a nightmare if the error can’t be fixed in time but the experts have already assured its users that the lost data will be fixed in time. For those who are using Twitter for business purposes, don’t rely entirely on the site; try to have your own back up files.
Errors and problems are natural but Twitter will see to it that everything is fixed.

Gathering Clients through Twitter
Twitter was launched in the market last 2006 and in the past few years, it showed extreme growth. In fact, last February 2009, the site ranked third next to MySpace and Facebook. Many business owners are now utilizing the site to promote their business. However, a lot of them don’t know how to maximize the site to their advantage.
For the new users of Twitter who owns any kind of business, here are great tips for you:
You can use the site for your market research. Every business has its target market. Through Twitter, you can easily access your target market and get useful feedbacks from them. Many of today’s business owners fail because they don’t know the true needs of their market. With the help of the social network site, you can easily listen to the needs of your prospects, the issues they are currently facing and the kind of help they want.
These pieces of information are vital to your business. You can create blog posts or write articles about the needs of the market. You can also create a new service to meet such needs or perhaps you can conduct a tele-seminar on a topic that might interest the target market.
Build a list. Once you have your list, you can share your information like newsletter and free gifts. You don’t need to promote your business every time you communicate with your target market but you can also mention it every now and then.
Whenever you meet someone on the site, try to establish a good relationship. You are a customer too. You buy from people who you trust and like. Your target market also behaves the same way. You must get to know your clients better and win their trust and confidence. Ninety percent of your updates or tweets should contain helpful contents and try to limit your promotion. By doing so, you can attract more prospects and later on, subscribers.
Learn how to create blogs. In order to show your expertise in the business, you need to post good blogs. Twitter provides tools that can automatically check the blogs you’ve posted and share them to your target market.
Offer tele-seminars and events. In order to increase the number of prospects on your list, you should send out invitations for tele-seminars and events. The more people you invite, the more you can promote your business.
You must create your own twitter account first before you can use the site for business purposes. Creating a profile page for your business is the first task that you should accomplish. Once you have your own account, you can let other users of Twitter know about your business. The twitter question that you need to answer is – what are you doing? You must answer this question so that you can let the world know about your business. After that, you can now follow the helpful tips mentioned earlier.
Studying the target market is very important for your business success. Identify their needs and wants so that you can give the right answer. Remember, you must try to build trust and confidence. Twitter has millions of users from all over the world. Just imagine how many of them you can get to patronize your business. Gathering clients through Twitter is not as difficult as you think.
For the new users of Twitter who owns any kind of business, here are great tips for you:
You can use the site for your market research. Every business has its target market. Through Twitter, you can easily access your target market and get useful feedbacks from them. Many of today’s business owners fail because they don’t know the true needs of their market. With the help of the social network site, you can easily listen to the needs of your prospects, the issues they are currently facing and the kind of help they want.
These pieces of information are vital to your business. You can create blog posts or write articles about the needs of the market. You can also create a new service to meet such needs or perhaps you can conduct a tele-seminar on a topic that might interest the target market.
Build a list. Once you have your list, you can share your information like newsletter and free gifts. You don’t need to promote your business every time you communicate with your target market but you can also mention it every now and then.
Whenever you meet someone on the site, try to establish a good relationship. You are a customer too. You buy from people who you trust and like. Your target market also behaves the same way. You must get to know your clients better and win their trust and confidence. Ninety percent of your updates or tweets should contain helpful contents and try to limit your promotion. By doing so, you can attract more prospects and later on, subscribers.
Learn how to create blogs. In order to show your expertise in the business, you need to post good blogs. Twitter provides tools that can automatically check the blogs you’ve posted and share them to your target market.
Offer tele-seminars and events. In order to increase the number of prospects on your list, you should send out invitations for tele-seminars and events. The more people you invite, the more you can promote your business.
You must create your own twitter account first before you can use the site for business purposes. Creating a profile page for your business is the first task that you should accomplish. Once you have your own account, you can let other users of Twitter know about your business. The twitter question that you need to answer is – what are you doing? You must answer this question so that you can let the world know about your business. After that, you can now follow the helpful tips mentioned earlier.

Capitalizing on Twitter’s Popularity
Many business owners are now capitalizing on Twitter’s popularity to market their business. Twittering is very addictive and it’s no wonder why millions of people send out tweets all day long. The tweets are merely 140 characters and it is also called micro-blogging. With only a few characters, you will need to answer the Twitter question just like other users of the social site. Just keep in mind that if you set your perspectives straight and use the site properly, you can financially and personally gain something from these fanatics.
To implement Twitter as a marketing tool, here are ways to accomplish them:
Twitter Search is a very effective tool that allows you to check on your business. You will be surprised to find out how much chattering takes place in Twitter. Find out what others are saying about your business and learn from them. If you find out any criticisms, think about them carefully. You can also make some adjustments to your business if there is a need to so that you ensure profitability.
Keep your followers informed. Once you sign up for your Twitter account, you should be active in sending out tweets to all your followers. Choose the people you follow on Twitter. If this is your first time to use Twitter as a marketing tool, you should follow the right people. Choose the ones who are also utilizing Twitter for online marketing because you can learn a lot from them.
You should also check if the people you’re following are also following back. Once you have many followers, you can now send marketing messages but try to do this minimally; instead, send out more helpful community and social messages. Remember, Twitter is a social network and not a promotional machine.
You can also let your followers know about your promotions through the tweets. Again, don’t overdo it. There is always a proper way to do things. Now that you have lots of followers, you should not alienate them. With just one bad tweet, you can lose many of your followers.
Gathering as many followers as you can is vital to ensure your success in online marketing; have you heard of the Twitter slap? Check your numbers regularly. When you’ve followed 2,000 people and you have less than 1,800 followers, you can no longer follow more people. By checking your numbers, you can avoid technical problems like this one.
When someone follows you, take care of that person by sending him/her personal tweets. By befriending your followers, you can build stronger relationships. A relationship built on trust is very important for your marketing campaigns. Keep in mind that you can’t market your products or services to people you don’t know on Twitter.
For instance, you post a tweet saying ‘hey guys, check out my business ‘. If you post impersonal tweets, you can’t gain loyal followers. Try to build good relationships first before you send out promotional tweets.
Capitalizing on Twitter’s popularity can be rewarding but only if you know what you’re doing. Learn everything you can about the social network. Follow gurus and learn from their experience. If you keep yourself well-informed, you can succeed in online marketing through Twitter.

Twitter Experience
Millions of people are now using Twitter, a social network, and yet, there are still many others who are not familiar with this hot micro-blogging site. In case you don’t know what Twitter is all about, just read on to find out more information about it.
When Twitter was launched about three years ago, young individuals used the site to keep track of their friends’ activities. Personal messages were easily sent through tweets.

You can write anything on the tweets – you can share your feelings, the things that you’re currently doing or just about to do, or perhaps you can also post certain topics that might interest others. As the social site became more popular, businesspersons saw its potential as a marketing tool. Some of them were able to enhance their business although there are also those who failed.
The basic idea when using Twitter is to follow interesting people. Once you follow a certain individual, you will receive their tweets. When someone follows you, you can check that person’s profile and decide if you want to follow him/her back. You can use the tool ‘TweetLater’ so that your account will automatically follow those who follow you.
With the use of such tool, your personal thank you message is automatically sent as well. When sending messages or tweets, make sure that you generate prompt action. If your tweets are interesting, you can easily draw more followers. This is quite helpful when you’re posting blogs or when you’re into internet marketing.
Did you know that you can have thousands of followers in Twitter? If you want to send tweets, you don’t have to do it manually because certain tools can be used to automatically send your messages to all your followers, no matter how many they are. Most of the Twitter tools are free and so you can have fun for as long as you like.
Online businesses are really popular these days and one way to get valuable leads is through Twitter. In order to build a valuable list of prospects, you should make friends first. Having lots of friends or followers can ensure your online business success. Once you have a lot of followers, you can now mention about your business and the programs that you’re planning to launch. You can provide links to your business or your programs and if they trust you, they will not hesitate to check out the links.

If those individuals are interested, they might follow you as well.
When you follow someone, there is no guarantee that he/she will follow you back. Always check your stats. When you’ve followed 2,000 people, your followers should at least be 1,800; if not, you will not be allowed to follow more individuals. When someone is not following you, ‘unfollow’ that person; cleaning your account weekly is a great idea. You can use ‘friendorfollow.com’ in order to complete such task.

Maximizing Twitter traffic for your business can be effectively done if you know how to tweet properly.
For about three years, Twitter has gained extreme popularity worldwide. People talk about various subjects. Some talk about their personal interests and there are also those who market their business online. Ordinary individuals use Twitter to send tweets to one another. Many of today’s online marketers are serious in using Twitter to drive traffic to their business sites. The social network is considered as one of the most effective and impressive ways to increase traffic.
With increased traffic to your business site, you can ensure more sales. How can you maximize your Twitter traffic? Here are several ways to do it.
Firstly, you need to spread the news that you’re on Twitter. If you’re into online marketing, you probably send lots of email messages or post blogs. Try to include your Twitter account on all your messages, blog posts, and even on your business site. That way, everyone will know that you’re using Twitter. You should also be active in using Twitter and in sending tweets regularly. When your followers see that you’re active, they will visit your website.
Regularly updating your tweets can also drive more traffic to your site, like people on Twitter who post tweets regularly. You can gain active followers through your tweets. However, you must ensure that you post more personal tweets; sending out bad ones can cause you to lose your followers. There are tools that you can use to help you in posting your tweets automatically but you need to be extra careful in using such tools.
By building good relationships with your followers, you will not have a hard time in selling your products or business. Don’t barrage your followers with sales promotions or else you can lose them. Instead, try to post helpful information every now and then because the social community will appreciate it more. Establishing a good relationship with your followers is vital. By investing a little of your time and effort in posting informative tweets and in replying to the ones addressed to you, you can ensure the profitability of your business in the near future.
Maximizing traffic in Twitter is very important. To sum it all up, make your presence known. Let everyone know that you’re on Twitter. Send tweets regularly and give more attention to the kind of tweets you’re sending. Make the tweets personal and most of all, build good relationships.

Designing a Twitter Background
Different kinds of people are now on Twitter. Even technical writers are now using the social network to promote their documentation services. If you have your own Twitter account, you should design an appropriate background.
When you create your profile page on Twitter, a default background is often given to you. If you want to create substantial impact, you should use custom-designed backgrounds. It is an effective way of generate more traffic.
How can you design your Twitter background?
What kind of information do you want to convey to Twitter users? You need to choose the right information, palette, and color for the sidebar. You can see the background next to the message column. The image does not contain image maps and so you can’t insert HTML links. Once you switch the image, the default background is changed.
For a more professional and cleaner look (for those who want to use Twitter as a marketing tool), don’t include any tile on the image.
There are image editing programs that you can use like Photoshop that allows you to save in GIF or JPG format. You need to create a large image that can occupy the computer screen but without tiling. A rectangle of 780 pixels x 1200 pixels is just right. If this size is not enough to cover the whole screen, you can increase the size by making it longer or wider.
For your information bar, you can line up your images or photos, business info, and website; this bar can be found on the upper left of the background image. It can also include your name, job title, blog URL, specialty, social network URL, and other important information.
Try to save everything as image. You can also create much smaller files by saving it ‘for web’ (if you’re using Photoshop). After that, click on the settings and then ‘Design’. Click on the link ‘change background image’. By clicking on ‘browse’, you can now find the image that you’ve previously created. Leave the tile check-box unchecked. Finally, click on ‘save changes’. After several seconds, you will have a custom Twitter background image.
Your background on Twitter tells a lot about your personality. If you plan to use Twitter for online marketing, make the background more professional. However, if you’re planning to use Twitter exclusively for making friends and staying connected, make your background more friendly and inviting. Make sure that it suits your image and personality. Cool backgrounds are great for youngsters. There are many editing programs that you can use aside from Photoshop’ it’s up to you to choose the best one that can provide the best background ever.
For technical writers and other serious professions, stick to simple and basic background designs. Having a formal look can also attract formal followers who are serious in their business. Hurry and change your background now. If you have a hard time in following the instructions mentioned earlier, ask someone who has been using Twitter for some time; perhaps some of your friends or relatives know how to edit the background.
Twitter backgrounds can be custom made. If you don’t want to use the default background, change the image now. Find an editing program and start making the changes. Choose the information well especially those contained on the information bar.
Be creative and simple to develop a sensible background.

Interaction is also very important. If someone sends you a comment or a tweet, you must respond immediately. Building conversations is one way to make friends. If you have lots of followers, don’t ignore them; try to send them comments as well.
Twitter marketing should not be done all the time. Just limit your marketing campaigns and communicate more. You see, when you communicate often with your followers, you can make more friends. The more friends you have, the more you can market your business effectively.
Since you’re going to promote your business, your ID should be related to your business. That way, your followers can easily identify you. It is not a good idea to market your business during your initial conversations. Again, the importance of building relationships should not be overlooked. Twitter is a social network website so you need to socialize with others. You must make them feel important. Talk to them by responding to their tweets. Don’t forget to post tweets regularly. Make your tweets interesting and helpful. You can also put links on your account that lead to your business site and to other helpful resources.
If you have gained friends through Twitter, it will be easier to pool more prospects. Your business will become well known by word of mouth. If some of your friends in Twitter like your product or service, they will surely recommend you to their followers. So you see, even if you’re not marketing your business all the time, prospects will come to you.
You must take care of the relationships you’ve built online. Taking care of your regular customers is vital and don’t stop looking for new ones.
Sign up with Twitter and use it as an effective marketing tool. Choose your ID carefully and make it catchy. You must learn how to use Twitter properly to maximize results. Join groups that offer similar products or services and learn from the experts. Even if you’re asking help from others, you should educate yourself further.

Losing Twitter Followers
Perhaps you’ve spent a considerable amount of time in following many people on Twitter and also for getting more followers. But did you know that it’s also possible to lose followers on this social network? If you’re using the ‘auto direct message’, you need to have second thoughts now.
The AutoDM is one of the most popular tools used by internet marketers on Twitter. If you’re using it properly, then you won’t have any problems. Abusing the tool can have serious consequences.
Twitter allows individuals to send personal messages to their friends so that they are always connected. But some people think that social networks like Twitter are too impersonal. You must be aware of what Twitter is all about. Twitter is for socializing with other people not an advertising billboard. If you always advertise your business, many of your followers will ‘unfollow’ you.
Phrasing your tweets properly can ensure success in internet marketing. By posting appropriately phrased tweets, you can generate good communication. The links that you provide might have an increase in the click rates. With increased conversation, you can develop better relationships with your followers.
How can you lose followers in Twitter? Here are samples of AutoDM’s:
• Hey, checkout my blogs
• Why don’t you buy my product? Here’s my link
• Get this product now
If you send these tweets to followers who hardly know you, they will immediately unfollow you. Sending capitalized tweets is also not a good idea. It would be much better to send more personal messages. Your followers will appreciate if you give them more attention and compliments.
Just try to put yourself in the shoes of your followers. How will you feel if someone sends you a tweet telling you to do something like for instance – ‘check out my products’. If you hardly know someone, you can’t give your trust easily and so you will not check out the products. Check the settings of your AutoDM so that you won’t be able to send impersonal messages to your followers.
If you’re running an online business, it’s not good to lose followers. It can have a terrible effect on your business and of course, your sales. Start changing your impersonal messages and create more personal messages. After you’ve made the changes, you can now use AutoDM. This tool is very helpful but only if you know how to use it properly. Too much of anything is not good and that also applies to the AutoDM.
Twitter is for socialization. You need to learn how to communicate with others effectively. You should try to make friends and develop trust.
If you want your followers to treat you well, you should also treat them accordingly. Being personal in all your dealings in Twitter can ensure success – whether you’re into internet marketing or not. Even if your primary aim is to make friends, you should send personal messages and not impersonal ones.
Losing Twitter followers is really easy but maintaining a huge list of followers is not an easy task. You must invest time and effort to gain more friends and prospects. Check out your AutoDM now and see what kind of messages you’re sending out.
If you need to make changes, do it now before it’s too late. Good luck in using Twitter for making friends and for promoting your business.

Handling Twitter Slap
Many individuals are easily convinced to sign up with Twitter because it is a great place to meet different kinds of people. You can also interact with them twenty fours hours everyday. Twitter is similar to Facebook and MySpace; it already has millions of users worldwide.
When someone follows you in Twitter, you’re also expected to follow them back; but that remains a personal choice. If you know proper etiquette, you will learn to appreciate them as you use Twitter day by day. The site also provides a tool which allows you to thank all those who followed you so that you will not do it one by one. It is your choice to follow people that catch your interest but you don’t need to expect something in return. Others will simply ignore you because they are not obliged to follow you and you can also do the same.
If you’re an avid Twitter user, you will know what the numbers on the right corner stands for. The three number sets represent the number of followers, the number of following, and the updates. You can post as many times as you like everyday and can follow as many people as you want. However, there is an exception.
As a Twitter user, you should pay close attention to the numbers on the right corner. For instance, when you’re following 2,000 people, a certain number of people should follow you back. Otherwise, you can’t follow more Twitter users.
When you’ve followed 2,000 people, you can no longer follow more unless you’ve met the appropriate number of followers. Even if you try over and over again, your request will not be activated. This is the so called Twitter Slap. It’s similar to the Google Slap (if you don’t adhere to the rules of Google, you will be punished with a slap) but this is not a serious problem.
One way to resolve this problem is to find out why some individuals don’t follow you back. You can use tools like friendorfollow.com and twitoria.com; the former can provide you with a complete list of those who did not follow you back and the latter will provide you with a list of those you followed but did not post for some time.
Try the sites mentioned so you can easily decide who to ‘un-follow’. If you’re using Twitter now, take note of the three number sets on your profile page. The numbers are important. If you’ve followed many people already, perhaps it’s time to use the tools mentioned so that you won’t encounter the same problem. There may still be other Twitter slaps but this is the most common.
When you send a request to follow someone and it is not activated, it only means one thing – you’re Twitter slapped. Don’t worry because you can easily address this problem. When you know the options available to you, you will not encounter any difficulty.
It’s really a good feeling to follow many people on Twitter but it feels better when they follow you back. Making more friends and staying connected 24 hours each day is possible through Twitter. Sign up now because it’s free and enjoy the Twitter experience.

Common Mistakes on Twitter
Twitter is an exciting, cool, and extremely profitable social network site. Millions of people are now using the site to talk about various subjects. Indeed, it is a micro-blogging site for those who can’t stop talking. There are also common mistakes that most new users commit on Twitter. Before you start sending tweets, you must be aware of these common mistakes.
Mistake number 1 – the picture on your avatar is not yours. Most new users don’t post their real picture. They often use cartoon pictures, company logos, or their pet’s pictures. Although the pictures are quite cute, most Twitter users will appreciate a real picture of you. When you post your true picture on Avatar, others will think that you’re real and that you’re confident enough to let others see you. If you’re going to upload a photo, choose the ones where you give a beautiful smile. A smile can easily brighten the day of others.
Sending direct messages automatically through the AutoDM; direct messages are often impersonal and pushy. If you send this type of messages, you can lose your followers. TweetLater is another tool that sends automatic messages. When you use these tools, messages are automatically sent to those who follow you. A message saying ‘thanks for following me’ is fine but sending automated messages promoting your business or product is not a good idea and most people will just frown at them.
Do you have any followers? If you want to have followers, you need to follow people or you can at least create an interesting profile page. You can get followers by regularly posting updates. If you keep on following people and yet you don’t make updates on your page, you can’t get enough followers.
The 140-character tweets should be used to answer the Twitter question. Answering that question once a day may be enough to let others know that you’re interested in the community. You can post what you’re doing for the day or where you plan to go for the night. Tweets are great for starting conversations. You can also re-tweet other users or send them comments.
Check your numbers regularly. It’s not good to follow many people when you have very few individuals following you. Try to achieve balance. Make sure that the one you follow will also follow you back and you should also appreciate the ones who follow you. This is the easiest way to make friends on Twitter.
Use tools like Tweetdeck so that you don’t need to stay online all the time. Through this application, you can divide your followers into groups. Now, you can easily track them especially when they send direct messages and replies.
If you keep on promoting your business all the time, everyone will ‘unfollow’ you. No one likes a person who talks about his business or product most of the time. You must learn to respect others. As you may have forgotten, Twitter is a social network.
You must learn how to communicate and build good relationships before you start bombarding them with promotions. Even if you already have a god list of leads, it is still not a good idea to barrage them with promotions. Promotional tweets should be sent in limited numbers only.
These are the common mistakes committed by new and old tweeters. Take note of them and don’t commit the same mistakes.
