Remember why
Platforms – twitterPlatforms – twitterCertain principles apply across all platforms, however there are some differentials; Firstly demographics, 24% of online users have a Twitter account versus 72% Facebook
92% of all interaction with a tweet is in the first hour
Posting several times a day can have a better effect Use of hashtags to connect with a subject Share your twitter feed on Facebook / website – only if regularly updated Be conversational
Other functionality such as Twitter Moments and Twitter Chat, can be time consuming and not offer a great return on your investment of time.
