Don't understand Twitter? Don't worry I do!

First some background info:

I am a huge fan of Twitter.

I write about Twitter on my blog... often.

I have 1,000 followers (that's nothing special, but definitely respectable)

I have written guest posts about Twitter, most notably on Shoemoney's blog.

I have been quoted for magazine publications, most notably by Jim Louderback for PC Magazine.

If you have a question about Twitter, I will be more than happy to answer it right here on this thread!

If you want to do some reading, here is the Twitter category on my blog.

What have you found to be the best techniques in accumulating followers? I have put a twitter widget that you can see on my website (iconzworld.com) in opes that people will start following me but have yet to receive a single follower.

Do you have any tips?

Thanks - Mike

 

Does it offer any marketing benefit? That's the most important question.

The best thing I have found is to follow a small amount of people you respect (50-100) and that start twitter useful links and thoughts. The more value you provide your followers, the more followers you will get.

 

Yes, very much so. When ever I twitter out a link to anywhere, I usually send between 50-100 uniques (and I only have 1050 followers).
