☆ Tweet topics that everyone enjoys.
☆ Try to provide a variety of Retweetable tweets.
☆ Be generous with your Retweets and in time you will be noticed.
☆ Pay it forward when possible and recognize people who Retweet you frequently.
☆ Your Retweeters will love to frequent your page to find and share quality content.
☆ Try to find someone new each day to Retweet and expand your Retweet Twitter circle.
☆ If you want to get someone’s attention, repeatedly Retweeting different tweets of theirs at once will get you noticed. When I saw @awakeningaimee ‘s smiling avatar on my reply page where she had retweeted five different tweets of mine in a row – in effect inviting me to visit her home page and Retweet her. I was happy to return the favor.
Thank you for your kind and generous Retweets.
I truly appreciate your support! ツ
Great thoughts. I do most of these things but did not realize how power full they could be!
Hello Robyn,
Thank you for sharing. ツ
Best,
Ann
Excellent post and advice Lori, I always look forward to your little gems on Twitter 🙂
Ann – Having thought about this a little longer, I might also add, Don’t Be Boring.
Mix it up. Consistency does not mean tweeting the same things,in new packages,all the time. People have varied interests and will want to read,and respond to, more of your content if it is varied in nature.
Cheers,
Marc

Good to know for the newbie. I always end up retweeting what I find interesting and helpful. I believe that social media can be wonderful to spread the word. I certainly have learnt a lot and got to know things I would not have otherwise. Thanks Ann for this post that tells more on how to share knowledge and hopefully some wisdom. 🙂
Hi Suchismita,
You may find a few more useful articles on my blog under social media. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Ann for this wonderful post. I agree with all points you have mentioned. Great work.
Great tips! And paying it forward is not only a great strategy in social media, but in life as well!
Hi Anna,
Yes, very true…
Thank you,
Ann
Being gracious and paying it forward – what a solid strategy! These are 7 steps I can also feel comfortable passing along to my clients; they “just make sense.”
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Scott,
Basic tips and they work beautifully for me. Although these days, it is much harder for me to reciprocate.
Ann
Thanks for the information Ms.tran. Very helpful.
Thanks for the advice 🙂
Love the way you generously share your experience. Thanks a lot for your great advice and I will retweet 😉
Should we thank people for retweeting? Seems like more noise. Instead of thanking us, tweet or retweet about us. THAT is appreciation
I like to pick a handful of people each month to focus on. Then I make sure to pay special attention to their tweets & content.
I also try to add some meaningful comments on their blog if they have one. With some focus and attention, you will catch their attention. Individuals with a bigger audience will require additional work obviously.
Ann,
Thanks for the simple, yet sound, tips. How much easier could it be?
I might add that sincere appreciation for the work of others, is helpful also.
Cheers,
Marc
I love your way to write and I agree with you!Of course writing and posting something really interesting could give you a lot of RT!:)
I absolutely love the simplicity of the advice given – hence anyone can employ your tips!
Thanks,
Keith
Thanks, Ann, for this reminder that the real power of Twitter is that it helps us find and share with those who have similiar interests. I’m relatively new to Twitter and in just a short time have already learned much from the fine folks I’ve met there.
Nancy
Excellent advice, Ann! Your tips resonate with me and I enjoy all of what you do. I start our each day reading your tweets. I draw great insights and wisdom.
Great list, Ann. I’ve also noticed that tweeting about Twitter gets people to retweet you.
I luv this very nice simple words of wisdom. I’m just learning Twitter and this is very helpful to us newbies!
Hi Ann, I came over thanks to Terry Conti, who mentioned this post in a comment hew left for me on my blog.
Thanks for the tips for ReTweeting, I have had someone retweet many of my tweets in a row and it did grab my attention and open up a relationship. Which is a reminder to self that i need to get in touch with them again as they were going into hospital.
I’ll visit your twitter page and get the ball rolling.
Thanks again for the tips, i’ll start using them straight away.
Barry
Hi Ann,
Re-tweeting is powerful. A lot of people that use Twitter do not know the free traffic they can get if they re-tweet valuable tweets.
Re-tweeting valuable tweets is a win, win.
Terry Conti
Simple yet important tips. Thanks Ann
I found this very helpful!! Thanks for all the great tips. Following you on Twitter now 🙂
Denise @ Creative Kitchen
What a lovely, refreshing set of wonderfully nice values! Thanks, Ann, for spreading the positivity!
Playing it forward, and the general kindness is what I love about Twitter. Great advice about RT to be noticed. That’s how I find a lot of people, they RT a health tweet I put out and I follow back.
Anne you are amazing! Watching you grow, knowing you personally and having had opportunity to shine in your light, my life is better and blessed by you!
This is a fantastic blog post from someone who REALLY knows what they are talking about?
Jessica
very nice, love the Pay if Forward! Keep up the good work.
Ann,
I am deeply honored that you mentioned me in your story & deeply appreciate you as well as the compliments. I feel truly honored to know you & consider you a wonderful friend. Twitter is a blessing that allows us to find info, friendship, affirmation & to inspire each other. You always bless me in all these areas with your thoughtful, entertaining & inspiring tweets. I am so thankful for you.
Keep up the good work.
Love,
Aimee (aka @awakeningaimee)
Agree with most of what you say Ann but would add that I think that when people are starting off on Twitter they should pick say 10 key people in their niche and focus on retweeting them. Make these people who both retweet themselves and also retweet and soon all their friends will flock to you
Just ReTweeted You! LOL – it works!
Great tips!
@caseyStudio
Great advice and I will practice the 7 tips
Ann, I love the fresh simplicity of this charming little post!
