8 Tips to get Retweeted

Twitter is a lovely place to meet and connect and one of the best ways to network is to get re-tweeted . While many would agree with that , there is a big number of people who would love to master this difficult art . I call it art because there is no formula for this . To each one his own . Here is what I learnt . Remember , theses are only “Tips” not “Methods” or “Rules” .

  1. Tweet Links : Chances are that if your tweet has useful information along with a useful link , people will relate to the reading material and find sharing meaningful
  2. Tweet Regularly : If u tweet regularly and establish a pattern to your tweets , chances are that your followers know when to get what from you and they too would in turn like to leverage that to help their networking
  3. Tweet Fitting : Even the best tweet in the world will not get re-tweeted if it does not fit well within the 140 char limit , remember the re-tweeter’s handle length and the space for a comment should be democratically provided , else there is no point
  4. Tweet Timing : If you tweet about a current trend and it is a sensible and thought provoking tweet , chances are that it will get re-tweeted , yesterday’s news rarely gets attention today .
  5. Tweet wording : Make a tweet hold and reward attention . The reader should read it fully and like reading it so much that he/she wants to share it . Terse and senseless commentary never gets re-tweeted
  6. Tweet Link Service : NEVER use a URL shortener that people don’t trust , use widely used . respected and validated URL shorteners , no one will re-tweet a tweet with a suspect URL
  7. Tweet Sense : Use the right attention words , like a blatant RT request or more subtle requests like “Blog Updated:” , they do work most of the time
  8. Tweet and get Tweeted : The last but not the least thing to remember is that only if you re-tweet others’ stuff , they will feel like returning your favor , do not behave like celebrities who have one-way twitter networks , interact and communicated
