Smoothape – Mutterings and Oddities

Just as everything in life, you need to plan. Creating a Twitter account is no different.

1. Choose a good name. It’s late in the day now, most of the good names are taken, but try to get one that represents your company name.

2. Create a great thumbnail, be personal. Logo’s are ok, but a face of well chosen image works best

3. Twitter backgrounds. If you can make an image, great, then do it. There are tons of templates out there, you can even pay a small fee and get one tailor made for you. Be sure to add you website address, tagline, social groups, etc. Don’t go overboard….

4. Write a great bio. Characters are limited, but make it count. Remember a link to your website

5. Twitter is searched by all major search engines, so be careful what you tweet, you may forget it, but Google won’t.

6. Add keywords to your tweets

7. Use your tweets wisely, send links to meaningful content

8. Retweet other as you would like them to retweet you

9. Don’t buy followers, earn then.

10. Dont tweet too much, your followers may abandon you.
