Do you have a plan for your Tweets? Are you a more spur of the moment Twitter user or do you prefer to have a scheduled outline? I like to make the best of both worlds. Your plan of action will be more effective if you have a list of helpful hints. Here are some of mine, feel free to add!

  • Watch your grammar – Just because you’re limited to 140 characters doesn’t mean that you should watch your grammar. Double check Tweets as often as you can. Check out Five Grammatical Errors That Make You Look Dumb by Copyblogger
  • Trending topics – Sometimes, useful events and stories make Twitter’s list of trending topics. Some prompts may even help you if you’re at a loss with what to update.
  • Retweet useful info – It could be a breaking story or a helpful article. Pass it a long and add a message of thanks to the person you’re retweeting.
  • Ask useful questions – Whether it’s for personal or market research, this is a great way to engage with your followers.
  • Mind your quotes - Many studies have shown that quotes or words of wisdom often receive the most retweets. Tired of the same old quotes, why not make one of your own?
