Personal; example will be if you went somewhere
and took a great photo of you there
Relevant to your niche; Post interesting things and
give value according to your niche. If you are in the
health industry, you will not bombard them with
posts on a subject that they have no interest in
Current affairs; this is a subject that will interest
everyone, in every niche.
Quotes; they are always popular posts.
Promoting your products; you can post your link
and promote every so often. I usually will not
promote more than once a day.
4. Play #Followfriday or #FF, every Friday find posts
with this subject, follow a few people and they will follow
you back. Once in a while, start a post yourself. Think of it
as hosting a party, you invite people and people will invite
you back.
5. Retweet popular tweets or tweets that you have
enjoyed. This builds engagement with your audience.
6. Follow other well-known people’s followers in your
niche. This is powerful and 40% of people you follow will
follow you out of courtesy.
These are just a few things how to use twitter to build your list.
Doing them every day for say 30 minutes will build your list for
free. To see how well you are doing, go to
http://www.klout.com and open a free account and usually users
with a score of 63 are in the top 5%.
The # tag is used to group or categorize the tweets just like a
keyword. The @ tag is used to capture attention of someone, it
is like a public reply and is only visible to people who follows
both sender and receiver.
Twitter is a powerful tool and if used properly can build you list
for free. I hope that you received some value out of this post and
