Gain clients, gain friends, gain respect with these tips for building a following on Twitter. To use Twitter to for wealth building you must first learn to use Twitter!


Twitter is the fastest growing Social Networking tool on the market! There are no secrets to using Twitter. There are however some things that will help you to use Twitter better! Whether you are marketing to make money with your business or just wanting to experience a new way to meet people these 5 tips will help you to accomplish your goals!

Tip #1: Quantity is not quality! You can have 50,000 followers and if 49,995 of them haven't logged in in two weeks you will not be getting your message out there! It is better to have 5,000 or even 500 quality followers than to have a million that don't read what you tweet!

Tip #2: Watch out for scams! Anyone offering to give you 5,000 followers just by signing up for FREE is probably trying to sell you something. Each day I see dozens of these tweets and within a couple of days I see the same sites being warned about because of inappropriate business practices like putting out viruses or stealing your accounts. Check out any of the companies that ask for you to log in with your Twitter username and password and wait a week or more before signing up!

Tip #3: Be courteous and kind. ReTweet interesting content. Reply to questions with helpful answers. Ask nicely when you need a favor and say thank you, it will go a long way to building friends! You want people to ReTweet you, that is the fastest way to get followers!

Tip #4: Leave space if you want to be retweeted! When you retweet something people put RT and @username so leave 20 spaces for the retweet info. This will keep messages to be truncated. Also, if you are putting in a URL put it in the middle to keep the link from being truncated!

Tip #5: Follow everyone who follows you back! People are far more likely to listen to you if you are listening to them. I know that sounds like common sense but you'd be surprised at how many people don't do this!
