Whats Better - Tweet or Retweet?

Which is better and why?

Is it better for 5 people to all tweet the same thing.

or

Better for 1 person to tweet and the other 4 to retweet?

 

I'd rather the retweet I suppose, this way you could start a counter and once a retweet becomes popular people are more inclined to retweet to be "in on it"

 

Tweet is just you talking to someone or posting a message.
Retweet is when people send your tweet to other people - thus increasing your exposure on Twitter = more possible followers.

 

It seems a set up for all to do the same tweet. Try to RT with an hour distance from the first Tweet. Retweeting something must be by physical way so people can trust and follow you. RT only if you like a tweet to mention.

 

In continuation to the comments posted by “ForgottenCreature”. Tweet and Re-Tweet are two different functions on Twitter. Tweet allows users to post a comment to others while re-tweet serves three different purposes:

• It allows you to share relevant information with your followers
• It shows respect to the follower you are re-tweeting
• It helps in depicting the nature of comments posted by the person you are re-tweeting to your followers. It also helps your followers in expanding their network.

Moreover, when you use re-tweet, it shows your loyalty towards the user who has posted the tweet. It also opens the door of interaction and who knows they may even re-tweet your tweets to their followers; which can be very useful for brand positioning of an organization.

I think tweet is much better

 

You cannot have more possible followers if you don't tweet. Tweet first then let others retweet.

 

It is best to retweet the tweet, than tweeting the same thing more than once.

 

retweet is easy and fast

 

I mostly tweet with a short link to my blog. This generates considerable traffic as I build up followers. It's a nice way for a small guy to get some significant traffic.

 

I too prefer retweet

 

i think retweet is better

 

i think retweet is better, it adds credibility to the retweeted tweet and the twitter accounts. Retweeting other peoples tweet is an act of appreciating others which can bring good image to the retweeter.

 

It's better for 1 person to tweet and the other 4 to retweet. A retweet is an essential vote in favor of the initial tweet, and visitors who see the retweet may recognize the original tweet author as an authority of some sort.

 

i like to tweet, because it is depend on my idea.

 

I think both of them are the same

 

I think both are important in tweeter.

 

Wow, these two kind of the things are really new to me, I never know that before, really taught me

 

I think it's the same
