Networking on social sites is now one of the main activities that people engage in when they're online. It's also become accepted that social media is just as good for marketing as it is for chatting in a social manner. Almost every business professional and Internet Marketer has professional accounts in each of the biggest social media portals (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc). Out of all the social networks, Twitter is probably the easiest to figure out and use to your advantage. As we will reveal in this article, building a good sized Twitter following doesn't have to be difficult. We'll also talk about how to develop solid relationships with your followers.
Having dedicated followers, not large numbers of them, really is the goal you should have. Can you really attract followers like this? How do you do it? Can you make your following exceptionally good? How is this achievable? In this article we'll teach you some of the things that will help you not only gain more followers but followers that are engaged.
You always want to reply when someone says something to you directly. If someone takes the trouble to contact you with a comment or question, they deserve a reply. Even if someone sends you a short comment thanking you for a post, thank them in return. People will appreciate an answer, and, on the other hand, they will not look kindly on being ignored. Every good response you make opens up the door to further communications and possibly business connections. This shows people you are actually interested in them and not just an impersonal marketing machine. When you do this, your followers will be more likely to retweet your messages and also check out your offers. Don't just retweet interesting messages, send a reply to the person who wrote it. You have nothing to lose and something to gain by complimenting someone. Send them an "@ reply" (pronounced "at reply") and offer your own opinion. Ask questions if you aren't sure what they mean. You don't have to say anything brilliant -a brief compliment is plenty. Even if someone has never written to you, that doesn't mean you shouldn't initiate the contact. When you're willing to start conversations, you will find that many new doors open for you. Participating without prompting is one of the best ways to attract the kinds of followers that you want to attract.
Don't just follow your friends. Follow your friends' friends as well. You will undoubtedly have made many friends by the time you have your business Twitter account, plus also in your niche market. Follow them, and the people they follow. More often than not, they will follow you back.
