You must be wondering, what’s this entire buzz about twitter. What’s in it for me?
Well, a simple answer to it is, consider this as a Mobile phone, you have limited characters (140), you can write your messages, publish it to your friends (followers), it has a huge visibility factor, its free (just need an internet connection / or mobile)
It’s a channel through you can share your opinions, feedback, views, ideas etc. You can follow thousands of users and get into discussions. It’s also a tool to promote your self, your company, your skills etc.
Some tips regarding usage of Twitter:
- Use the search option on twitter as much as possible
- This helps you to decide who / what to follow
- It is not necessary your you to read every tweet ;)
- Use your space to highlight your blogs, ideas, views on topics of your interest
- Also at times try to know what people like or have interest in ( This brings a human effect )
- Use http://gd.is/ or http://tinyurl.com/ to shorten URL’S ( Saves space )
- Follow industry leaders in your domain (I am sure that they must also have a twitter account ;) )
- Promote Your Work/Company. You can have separate accounts, personal and professional, if privacy is an issue.
- If you like some tweets, just put “RT @name” in front of their tweet and post it yourself ( Retweet)
- You can integrate your LinkedIn account with Twitter. Also can use the application on Facebook.
