    Hey,

    My name's William Tha Great, here from Houston, Texas.

    Let's get a discussion going here today!
    Twitter is a vital tool to many business now a days. It didn't always be like this but, times are rapidly changing. The way I see it is that social media is the next big thing to take over. While all this is happening I want my piece of the pie, and I know you do also. :)

    My Questions:

    Question 1: How do you gain interactive followers, or followers that RT and respond to your tweets? It's not hard to gain followers, but it's hard gaining targeted followers that interact.

    Question 2: How do you take the followers you already have, and make them interactive followers? No one wants to start over from scratch!

    I would love to hear your responses! What percentage of your followers would you say actually interact with you?

    If you like what you read take a second to follow me on Twitter! I would love to connect with you further. ( :

    God bless,

    I'm just learning the basics right now. My strategy right now is just to find interesting people to follow.

    I think the best thing for a beginner is to start interacting or trying to interact with favorite celebs and interesting people.

    Quality>Quantity imo

    I'm not good at using hashtags yet - does anyone really understand how they help (or not?)?

    Good Tweet does make sense.
    Give hyperlink into your tweet.
    Give some Quate in tweet which should be relates with social message or news or voice against wrong thing.

    Hey Everyone,

    Thanks for taking the time to respond!

    Personally, I don't want to follow a lot of people just to be followed back. There are ways to build your following without having to follow too many people. When you start following too many people it will be hard to keep track of everything that's going on. Your timeline will be full of tweets you don't care to read or act upon. Why not a change in strategy?

    How about only following a select few?

    That way you can really focus on the people you are following and be able to connect with them on a personal level. I don't have to follow anyone to build followers, but i'm interested in building highly targeted followers.

    Anyone know how to build highly targeted followers?

    Twitter can be very helpful to spreading your word and brand. The key to to be a social as possible and have a following that helps you with that purpose. When you get a small taste of a helpful following it will enlighten you. At the end of the day you should remember that was only a little taste. If you work hard and smart there is no limit to the following you can build. With a nice size following it's much eaiser to get your word around the web.

    Lets connect! If you like what you read don't hesitate to follow me on Twitter! :D

    God bless,
