How to adjust and create clickable tweets
Tweeting getting rewtweeted is the biggest form of flattery .
It is a big accomplishment .
The high point of a moment.
The opposite is true when you don’t get any .
The feeling you get is like “no body likes my content ” which does not always the case.
You need to dive into the analytics and get insight on your followers.
Timing of your tweets makes a difference too.
I use tweroid to see the best times to chirp.
Back to what I was saying about people not liking your “content.”
And this is what you need to understand.
If you are not chirpping information that interest your readers then it won’t matter how good the content is.
But you should not automatically assume that your information is not interesting until you investigate .
Because you could be tweeting content that is useful for another group of people.
And when you get to that point you need to make adjustments .
Now listen and pay close attention to what I am about to say .
The information tweeted on twitter flows like a river .
Tweet after tweet .
As soon as you post rest assured that there are more tweets in the stream .
Take into consideration the tweets that were posted before yours too.
The chatter does not stop.
Stay with me so you can learn from my experiences.
I love twitter but starting out the ride was bumpy.
I have tried tweeting links about
1. News clippings
2. Seo
3. Blogging
4. business tips
I even listened to the influential people
I managed to pick up on a few tips from some of the influencers I mentioned but I was not making as much progress as I would have liked.
I tried using different hastags .
I tried asking for retweets but I still was not getting the results I wanted.
I used my analytics too but for some reason I wasn’t getting likes and retweets.
I tried testing different headline formulas too.
I even tried chirpping without links .
Still not much progress .
I tried Switching topics and still no likes,retweets.
At a point in time I was lost but I kept testing different techniques.
The ball started rolling a bit when I became more conversational.
But I still wasn’t getting as much likes and retweets as I would have liked
So I decided to dive deeper into my analytics to see which of my post would get the highest engagement rate.
My motivational post was gaining the most traction.
There were other post performing well too .Every now and then I would sing about
• social media
• search engine optimization
• business-post
The enagement rate was pretty high on the 3 listed above but I still was not getting consistent likes and retweets
So I took upon myself to keep posting inspirational ,motivational quotes .
Those are the post getting me the highest engagement rate likes and retweets.
My follower count is fluctuating and a bit but that is ok because I prefer to have an active audience .
Having a Large audience that is not engaging your content is useless.
The bigger picture is in having an active group of followers.
One the reasons for tweeting is to share
• news
• information
What is even more important is tweeting information that inspires people.
By then you should have their attention
When you have peoples attention you have keys to open doors to sales and relationships.
Having A responsive following increases your chances and opportunities of making sales.
The size of your audience is not as important as having the attention and ability to inspire the people following you to act.

Let me show you how to tie people in.
Dive into your analytics and look at their buying and spending habits .
After that you can survey them and get feed back to see if they are really interested .
Over all I think the analytics is useful but you have to test and tweak to find out what does and does not work.
I have seen different styles at play.
• educational
• conversational
• Sports
You name it and some one is using the formula.
There are people that I follow because of their tone and style.
My formula might not work for you .
Just keep tweaking and testing .
I am building monentum.
You can rest assured that I will keep my finger on the peoples pulse.
I find using action words in the beginning of tweets makes a big difference .
People seem jump to action and strike that notification button quick when ever I do.
I have yet to sell anything because I wanted to share my content and build my reputation first.
Now that I have established myself I am ready to throw a few jabs .
Twitter ,instagram ,youtube ,Facebook I love them all but for some reason I enjoy youtube ,twitter and instagram the most.
To each is own.
So what do you think so far ?
Are you enjoying this episode .
Now I will jump into the next phase
Being active and responding to the people endorsing your tweets is imperative.
Make sure you return the favor to the ones retweeting and liking content.
Anybody promoting content that you deem click worthy should get an endorsement .
Reciprocate ,show appreciation.
A little thanks goes along way.
Because Twitter is an open channel .
You have options to ask, answer questions.
Show people that you are tuned in .
The only way of doing that is by getting involved .
But hey there is more to it .
Singing is just one aspect of the equation .Relationship building is another.
There are ways that you can chatter to get more attention
The way to do it is simple
Be you .
Like I said ,everone has a unique method that works for them.
I think people mess up when they try and sound like others.
People can read into your tone .
So it is highly likely that a follower or casual viewer can detect an imitator.
Be an originator.
There is no issue tweeting about the same subjects as me or any onelse.
However Do not lose your voice doing it.
The minute you lose your voice is the minute you lose credibility.
Keep it simple but come up with different ways to formulate your tweets.
And you have ample time to test.
There is no pressure,just go along and tweet.
After I finish writing this post I am going to send out a warm up tweet.
No links or images just a post of me sharing what is on my mind .
I might use a few hashtags .
Maybe I will not .
So it is a matter of testing and finding a formula that works for you
There is plenty of information to help get you started on Google youtube and twitter itself.
You have to decipher and analyze .
Sift through the wheat .
Find a method ,stick to it and tweak it if you need to.
Yes I have improved in leaps and bounds but I am still enhancing my craft .
Every now and then I go back and revisit videos and bloggs to re fresh my memory.
The more you are tweeting and testing the more you will learn .
Here is something important you need to know.
You will learn through trial and error but eventually you will find a formula that works for you but even then you have to give yourself a grace period.
Do not be discouraged because things are not going as planned .
Patient is the key in the process.
Play the game on your terms .
But make sure you are having fun.
Today is Sunday May 19 ,my usual time to tweet is 12 pm but I am going to tweet around 1:30 pm.
There is something powerful I like about twitter.
For every tweet posted you get impressions .
Isn’t that a wonderful thing ?
I like the idea of tweeting and getting impressions .
People seem to like my image and video post more than they like my written ones.
Armed with that knowledge I will post more image and video content.
I will experiment a bit more on that front until I figure out a better method .
Yes I mentioned method a few times and that is because strategy is every thing .
You have got to think and know what you want to achieve .
If not there is no use in tweeting.
This is not to say you cannot jump in with little experience.
But After you get going you should have an idea of what you want to chirp about.
Say for example you tweet about National Basket ball .In this instance you will attract basket ball fans .
So you cannot make the mistake I made by following everyone back that follows you .
If the goal is to get likes and retweets then the best thing to do is follow others with a similar interest .
Plus endorse and share a variety of quality content pertaining to your niche. Remeber what I said about reciprocation.
Which also helps to build trust .
Make sure you put some thoughts into things before you start posting .
The reason why I want you to put some thought into this is because I want you to make an impact .
You make an impact and become an icon. That person whom your audience is curious about.
I have not said it all this time but I will say it again .
Entertain .
When people think of entertainment they think of comedy ,circus ,movies .
But entertainment comes in many forms
1. Education
2. Motivation
3. Health
4. Holistic
There so many ways to amuse people.
And how you amuse people ? By giving them value .
Do not look at the subject as the only form of entertainment .
Look at what you are delivering too.
So it is about connecting with your followers.
It helps to be on twitter everyday.All you need is an hour tweeting maybe in 10 minute intervals .
Consistency is what pays off.
So keep showing up day in day out.
Twitter is not hard to figure out but when something is not working you adjust and use your analytics .
You can even search and find conversations going on about you .
Anytime some one mentions you make sure you reply.
Do not be lazy and automate your tweets 24/7
Automation kills a lot of marketers .
And the reason being is that automation is robotic.
There are some tools you can use to auto post tweets whilst you are offline.
But You have to test and tweak to see if the automatic strategy works for you.
I haven’t used any automation tools yet but I might test hootsuite .
And here is the one thing that all socialmedia platforms have in common.
(You have to test to see what is gaining traction and what is not )
Tweroid is a good tool to use to find out the best times to tweet for exposure and so on.
But do not get caught up too deep in the automation process because then you will lose touch with your audience.
Some people use automation as a means to escape the work it requires to build an audience on twitter.
In the end you end up hurting your brand .
Summarry
I feel that I have covered a lot in a short period of time .
It is my hope that you learned a few tips that are applicable .
I feel good being in position to communicate with you.It means the world to me .
Stay focused and do not give up .
Remember every person that tweets has a unique perspective and a unique way to connect.
With that being said learn from people .Take what is good and leave the rest alone.
At the end of the day You have to come up with strategies that work for you.
And if you get caught up trying to imitate others you will lose your authenticity.
There is room for you to grow .
Do you have the discipline to follow through ?
There will be days when you feel like giving up .
What do you think about todays post ?
