Most of my followers are related businesses. I’d like to reach more general public and more local people. I find it takes too much time because of the masses of tweets from all over the world on my home page. Not sure I have maximised the whole thing but have found it useful as research into my markets and some contacts have been very helpful. Too many people just use it to link to products and pages in long, individual lists which I find irritating, and I unfollow these people. Maybe I am missing the point. Don’t know how I would cope with thousands of followers unless I had a PA to deal with Twitter.
Hi Meryl, Thanks for your comment.
Yes, I’ve found Twitter can be challenging to manage if you have a lot of followers and follow people back. Generally I find Twitter works better for business to business. For the general public type focus, I’ve found that Facebook works better, but that is just what I’ve found.
Hi
I like your site and the work you do however I can’t agree with the aim of Twitter being to have loads of followers. Surely it’s more about quality followers now especially if you’re using Twitter to harness a local following?
Hi Jane,
Thank you for your comment. I think it depends to some extent on what people want to achieve with their Twitter marketing. I do agree for a local or specialist business a small targeted following is likely to work best.
I have focused on getting a large following, mostly by following others and getting a follow back. But I do try and target people who might be interested in the SEO tips etc, and generally the feed back is fairly positive. One thing about a larger following and using short links, is it drives website traffic as well. I also find I get quite a lot of the members from Twitter, and quite a number of them in different countries around the world.
One way around all this would maybe be to have more than one Twitter account, each one focused on a specific area or product. I do have a couple of clients that do this and it seems to work quite well.
Thanks for all the info and tips. Its really important for businesses in very competitive markets to keep up-to-date with changes and trends in marketing. Your pages are an invaluable source of inspiration and advice.
Hi Howard,
Thanks for your comment. I have used a strategy of offering mini SEO tips in the tweets and then a shortened link back to further content.
It does take time to work though. It is only since I got to 20k followers that I really now get quite a bit of traffic, from the links. Also RT’s add further traffic.
I am pleased with myself for getting 10,000+ Twitter followers to my pages in a year and I only really started to take Twitter seriously about 9 months ago. Twitter drives traffic to my web-store but by a long way not as much as other sources do … Maybe I am missing something?
