Twitter: Getting the best out of it

Follow me on Twitter
I've been a long time twitter user, came on and off like a yoyo going up and down.


So now I have this blog, I use twitter to advertise it.


Let's get to the it-:


Using the Hashtags
Every tweet you do, add the # in to certain words.
#Education
#IT
#ITSupport
#Schools
#Students
#TeachingAndLearning7
#EduTech


These are popular tags and when you search a tag, it shows you the history of that tag (for hours or days, depends on popularity).  This is incredibly useful, the more likes and retweets you get the more viewers you get.


Reply to Hot Topics
Reply to as many topics as possible, spam if you have to, don't forget the # in front of useful words.


Follow a lot of People
The more you follow, the more you can reply, the more you get your own view out there.  Sooner or later people will follow you and do the same to you.


Don't be afraid to Advertise
Constantly use links to your website, for me I am constantly advertising my blog.  As a result - my visit counter has sky rocketed.  Revisit old topics and add your website link, retweet and like anything and everything.


Don't hold back and use it to your advantage, follow as many people as possible - you can mute those you are not interested in.


Create posts and link to those twitter sites
I recently created a post which were about a few tweets and linked sites.  This helps increase viewers, tweets, retweets, likes and what you want - advertisement.


It's a full time job but in no time you can gain a lot of followers which in turn is what you want.  Don't be afraid to be annoying, don't be afraid to follow those you shouldn't.  If you keep your twitter account void of any personal data then nothing can fall over.
