The Reason You Should Tweet In 120 Characters

Social Media
If you’ve studied any Twitter tips, on this blog or elsewhere, you may be familiar with the recommendation to tweet in 120 characters or less.

Are you working with a stagnant network? Have I got a few tips for you! Post unique content daily, as in not a retweet. Find interesting content on your own and share it with your followers.

10 Quick Twitter Tips for Beginners

Social Media
Need a little more twitter-savvy? Use these quick tips and have fun! Save hashtags you like, as well as those specific to your industry or niche.

Lists will make a big difference as your following and timeline grow. You already know to get rid of that egg pic. Use a human picture, not a logo.
