Twitter is a popular tool amongst many people in today’s world. It has become a great way for businesses to engage with their customers and reach out to celebrities. This platform can be beneficial for your business if you use the following tips in this guide.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with hashtags, they are necessary to use. For example, in my world, I sell dance clothing so I would put #danceclothing or #dance. People search for hashtags, so if someone wants to see something related to dance, they will come across your tweet. Some other suggestions are funny hashtags for effect, and asking your customers to use a hashtag. I don’t recommended using your own brand as a hashtag if you are still new but a great idea is asking your customers to use it for example, #bdancewear. Over time, more and more people will use it and then you have your own hashtag.
Tip 2: Influencers
Connecting with influencers is the number 1 reason I use Twitter. You can connect with high level people. Particularly in my case, dance blogs and famous dancers that normally wouldn’t respond to an email are more likely to respond through twitter.
Tip 3: Promoting Content
Every time we have a new blog post, we post about it on Twitter and Facebook announcing the article. This could all be automated as well making it easier for yourself. You can also get backlinks. If you post about your new article on twitter, google will see that a twitter account posted about the article. If you can get 100 backlinks to your article, it is going to be valuable. You can also ask your followers to share this article with people who might be interested.
Tip 4: Follow for Follow
Another tip to get followers on Twitter is to use the follow for follow method. The way a lot of social media works, especially on Twitter is if you follow someone they will follow you back. This method isn’t as effective anymore, but it can be a good way to grow your followers. Some people have more success than others with this method so it’s good to try it out.
Tip 5: Use Images, Videos…etc
If you really want to stand out amongst the crowd, add images and videos to your tweet. Don’t just use text all the time because images and videos give a tweet a stronger effect.
