DO’S AND DON’TS ON TWITTER
Twitter has become not just a micro blogging outlet for
individuals and celebrities, but also for big brands, such as Coca Cola,
Cadbury, and Apple. Twitter's popularity, though, goes beyond the global
exposure it offers to people and brands. It's also a listening tool and a means
for building community.
Thus it is very important to use twitter in a right way to build
your brand. Here are a few tips on what to do and what to avoid on twitter for
brand promotion.

Add It To Your Business Cards
•
Add It To Your Email Newsletters
•
Add A 'Follow Us' Button To Your
Website
Avoid Frequent Auto Sending Posts

throughout the day
•
The problem with this is that
Twitter and Facebook require very different approaches
•
Posting your tweets to facebook may lose your followers on twitter

If people can read all your Tweets on
Facebook, why should they follow you on Twitter?
Leave Enough Space for Re-Tweets
•
Make sure that you leave enough space in your tweet so that
RT@YOURUSERNAME can be added to it
•
Aim to make your
tweets about 120 characters
•
Leave the re-tweeter about 20 characters to format their re-tweet
correctly
Share Photos and Videos
•
It's a nice change to view photos on Twitter but make sure you
post photos that your followers will find interesting

In January 2013, Twitter launched a new app called
Vine ( lets you publish a short looping video of up to 6 seconds on
Twitter)

This is a great way to add some fresh, creative content to your
Twitter feed that your followers will surely find interesting
Maintain your Brands Voice
•
Give your brand its own personality when replying to tweets and
keep it consistent.
•
Your replies should be
helpful, positive and inspiring.
•
Making your replies faster and consistent increases the growth of
your audience
