- 20. #ABTwitter102 | @tweetvandijk @kevin4quality @banff_squirrel April 8, 2015 @banff_squirrel Cough twice, then tweet.
- 21. Humour can be a twitter tool, or lead to this...
- 22. Transparency is key. But be careful what you ask for. As part of an ad campaign, SeaWorld, which has been heavily criticized for its treatment of captive orca whales, created a website to answer the public's questions. Using #AskSeaWorld, Twitter users can ask anything
- 23. Helpful Hints? Starting a tweet with @thepersonyouaretweeting will only be seen by followers of both your and their accounts. If you add punctuation to the start, it will be seen by the public. Optimize your profile with good photos and strong, concise bio. Images uploaded to your tweet will show up in the newsfeed. Links to Instagram posts or Facebook posts will just show as URLs Engagement is key to building an audience. Reply to all questions, retweet good content from peers, initiate conversations rather than just react. 3rd party platforms allow you to have multiple search columns. I like Tweetdeckand Hootsuite is popular as well. Both of these are free. Make lists of groups or people to follow. You can then see the tweets just from this select group , making it easier to monitor/respond. These lists can be public or private. My lists include local hotels, Calgary media, etc. Follow twitter accounts that are relevant to your own account. Allows them to be aware of your account and possibly engage with it. Automated direct messages to new followers are not well received, even if it is a thanks It is fine to post the same/similar tweet multiple times over the course of the day. Your tweets will only be seen by a fraction of your followers for each post.
