Twitter Right

The art of social networking is here stay. Time to read these hints and get your Twitter on.

1. Pick a small Twitter username
I picked a name synonymous with one of my online assignments. It was short and sweet, and i get the feeling replies to the My Twitter postings would have happened more if I had picked a shorter name with no numerals. And make your icon badge or symbol very very crisp and clean, no fuzzy edges. The repackaging will never ever improve on a smaller screen.
2. Check the account for new subscribers
Use the names and domain name or websites from your new subscribers for topical hints. Check the keywords of the those websites and use them in posts if you want to see your content echoed abroad. If you know what keywords your twitter subscribers are tuned to, you can groom articles for provoking content that tackles your audience.
3. Mention the Mentioneers
Collect a list of keyword driven lists that you can Twitter to about posts on a specific topic instead of expecting them to follow you. Many people skip dozens of Twitters if they don’t see the top of the pops of their subject preferences. Remember, in Twitter respond directly to individuals using Direct Reply.
4. Title Fight
Try to make sure your titles aren’t so witty and acerbic they curl in on you and make puzzled title skimmers skip your tweet. Twitter only works if people follow through to the main message. Use the best webmaster advice possible for SEO, involve your topical keywords in the title that indexes and search engines can offer browsers without having your content drop to the bottom of the index because the gist points elsewhere.
5. Test Your Twitters In the Client
Twitter organizers like Tweeteriffic, Destroytwitter, and other organizer of Tweet bursts should probably be tested. Make sure your Twitter messages play well with the other applications.
