Out of experience? Well, I don’t know, but looked like everyone is so interested in talking about getting successful on Twitter. Well, I followed many of them and, guess what? They enlightened me on the below points. With due courtesy to all of them….

  1. Please follow your followers
    Or guess what happens? Your followers would be responding to your tweet and they never hear back from you. Okay, you are a pro - master - guru, blah blah…fine..but that doesn’t mean that you won’t talk or reply. Does it ?
  2. Please don’t even dare say “Good Morning” or “Good Evening” or even “Good night”
    Cos, the 300ish guys subscribed to your tweet is not from your neighborhood, they’re most likely from the other end of the world. They may think you’re nuts!
  3. Please try to respond, or be a bot
    I can’t think of a good reason why one wouldn’t respond. Unless it’s a bot using your profile. I’ve seen Digg bots (some of them even have the profile pic of that of a robot), but twitter bots? Come on…that’s disgusting!
  4. Twitter is not a place to yawn..come’on now for God sake!
    Thou shall not yawn, or do any of those organic sounds. Remember, though you’re on your bed, the world’s watching you..err…listening to you.
  5. Be logical
    This is tough to explain. Example? Here goes…

    Mr. X : I’m going out for a movie - Dark Knight.
    Mr. Y : @Mr.X - Man, that’s a cool movie. Yaay!

    (After 30 mins….)

    Mr. X : Just woke up..had coffee, off to Gym !
    Mr. Y : @Mr.X huh?? :o

Makes sense?
