TWITTERIFIC!


I have just changed my profile on Twitter. Firstly, because I was stupid and miss-typed Kaleidoscope which made it very difficult for all those that like to tweet me. Secondly, because I wanted to align my profile with everything I do - ie YouTube channel (WomenCan), GodTube channel (WomenCan), etc.  

The interesting part is that I was really bummed that I had done so much hard work to inspire a group of followers.  In 3 months I had about 110 and I thought that was hard going.  So I set up the new profile and just popped in there and clicked on the follow buttons for all those that were following me and within a short time they were hopping across.

Seeing the success of this technique I decided to look for other "followers" who were following people I knew and respected.  So I ended up clicking on about 700 followers links.  Within less than 24 hours I have 210 followers!  Unbelievable.

So I just thought I'd share this little piece of information for all you readers of this blog.  You can build a list really quickly in Twitter.  It's not so much about who you are following but about who is following you.  Be an influencer.  Leader from the front. 

The best part is that I am now having wonderful conversations with those new found friends where as before it was all a little bit dead!

Enjoy.
