1. Know your audience on twitter. Anyone has access to your tweets unless you have locked your account. Consider how your behavior will be viewed before you speak. Remember, if it’s rude to your mother, it’s rude on twitter.
2. Don’t be negative or cryptic to stir up attention. People react better to positive messages on social media platforms that encourage not discouraging.
3. Be a helpful resource. Discover your passion and become the twitter expert that everyone follows for a specific topic. This may really compliment your vocation.
4. It’s best to respond to tweets by retweeting them using // after their tweet in response. This will not only help others understand your response, but the person you responded to as well.
5. Ask the most important question. “Does everyone need to read my comment or is this personal?” If not, it’s best to either withhold your thoughts or Direct Message your thoughts without others having to read it. There’s nothing worse than 2 people taking up a twitter feed with extraneous conversation.
6. Use Hashtags on major subjects so that people can join in on subject conversation and find new people to follow who discuss that particular subject regularly.
7. Be selfless not selfish. Tweeting constantly about extraneous life activities will eventually alienate your followers.
8. Don’t tweet too much or too little. A rule of thumb may be no more than 15 times per day. However, if you haven’t updated in months, I’ll unfollow you.
9. Don’t be afraid to use your sense of humor. People like to know that you are real people and have more than a one-dimensional life.
10. Block the Sketchy people. It’s a good idea to look at your followship sporadically to make sure no sketchy people are following you.
