3 Ways to Twitter a Little Better

I know it's Tweet better.  I was being ironic.  Also I'm drinking a PBR and listening to Dirty Projectors...
On with the tips.

1.  Find lists in your niche, and then identify the people creating lists.  Then follow the person who created that list and attempt to interact with them.  If you're a beauty vlogger and you found someone who created a list that follows beauty vloggers, than chances are she'll find you relevant and add you to that list.

2.  There's nothing wrong with F4F.  The more people who follow you the more there are who might see your tweets, links, etc.  Thus the much greater chance of being retweeted.  Go to some Followback Twitters like @TeamFollowWacky and follow their followers.  The one's with decent bios are those most likely to not be bots and to be engaging people.  Even if they're not in your particular niche, their in your niche of being human!

3.  Ask people short, simple questions.  If someone follows you or you see a person you'd like to follow, simply send them an @reply saying "Thanks for the follow.  So what are you about?"  or even something like "What do you have planned this week?"  It seems irrelevant but the idea to networking is making actual friends in a similar way to how you would IRL.

But who cares about IRL.  Real life is so 2008.
