Tips For Using Twitter Effectively

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

It seems like everyone from your friends to your coworkers to your family members to your favorite athletes and movie stars are using Twitter these days. And while there are certainly people who simply want to use Twitter to keep up with their friends, many others want to use it to grow their base of connections. Regardless of whether you are in business, in the arts, or in just about anything else, it is always useful to be connected with as many people as possible. If you follow these tips, you will be able to increase the number of people to whom you are connected by using Twitter effectively.

Know what your purpose on Twitter is: If you spend most of your time on Twitter talking about what you ate for lunch, or what the weather is like, you are unlikely to rack up new followers. What you should plan to do is pick a few specific categories - categories that are of interest to you, and that will be of interest to those you would want to follow you - and focus on these.

Follow the right people: Not only will people look at your tweets when deciding whether to follow you, they will also look at who you follow. You will need to make sure you are following people who others also have an interest in if you want to pick up loyal Twitter followers. When you follow people in this manner, people are likely to see names and faces they recognize when they browse the people you follow, and this will cause them to follow you.

Make sure you tweet all the time: The best way of all to grow your base of Twitter followers is to make sure you tweet often. If you only get on Twitter once every few days, you are unlikely to pick up many people who will hang around for the ride! Make sure you are tweeting throughout the day, every day - even if that means you simply need to schedule your tweets in advance!

Once you follow these tips, you will be using Twitter effectively, and you can effectively grow your base of contacts!
