Your Guide To Social Media: Twitter

Twitter is a vehicle that is more about showing your followers that their is a person behind the computer. Yes you want to get your message across and share links that will hopefully get retweeted and clicked on, but you want to do it in your own voice. You want the user to really feel connected to you even tho they might not know you, unlike Facebook which is a more intimate setting where most people know each other already. Doing that will enhance the odds of followers clicking on your link.
Keywords and hashtags are an important tool in Twitter. Make sure you have a list of words that you feel describe your company and remember you only have 140 characters, so make sure it is quality copy. Hashtags are important for forming conversations about you and your business. Hashtags can be found all over TV and print ads and are used to give viewers who just saw an ad, trailer or a show a way to group certain subject and give them all a way to talk about it. #twittersocialmediaguide.
