1. Get More Twitter Followers by Crafting an IRRESISTIBLE Bio
In addition to your avatar and background image – the first thing people notice when they look at your profile is your bio.
It needs to stand out and help people really understand at a glance who you are. You want them to immediately WANT to connect with you.
Remember – your bio allows for 160 characters. You have a lot of space there, so use it and use it right!
Here are 7 helpful tips for writing a great bio:
Use keywords to attract your desired audience.
Embrace the space – the bio is your 160-character elevator speech!
Tell us what you do or believe in – vanilla is popular only in ice cream.
Include the name of your company (and link the website).
Avoid meaningless buzzwords – I mean, what’s a “lean entrepreneur” anyway?
Add social proof – don’t be afraid to mention honors, positions and achievements
Use humor (if you don’t have any, borrow some).
Also, be sure to include the hashtags you want to be associated with in your bio – they will show up in Twitter search.
But beware of the spam trap (aka don’t look spammy!) – don’t overuse hashtags in your bio. Just choose a few relevant ones that align with your brand.
2. Get More Twitter Followers by Telling Your Story!
Great social media storytelling has become an art form.
Storytelling is a genius way to attract people by sharing details about your business that they might not find out if they didn’t follow your tweets.
It’s a way to connect with people on a deeper level by humanizing your business.
Want to learn more about how you can become a better social media storyteller?
So many people have asked, “How can you fit anything meaningful in a 140 characters?”
Well, anyone who’s a Twitter addict will probably roll their eyes, say, “What are you talking about? How can you not fit something meaningful in 140 characters?”
The key is to be personal – let people see the real you.
Don’t worry about being super stiff and “Oh, I have to be all business” or “Am I going to say the wrong thing?”
Just be honest!
Pretend you’re talking to people who are coming over to your house for a dinner party. Let your Twitter followers see that side of your personality.
And over time as you tell your story – people will remember it and relate to it.
That’s where the meaningful relationships come from on Twitter.
Of course, it’s up to you how much you want to share – everyone has a different comfort level.
Just think to yourself, “What are those wonderful little things about me that people will automatically be drawn to – that they’ll want to engage in a conversation with me about?”
3. Get More Twitter Followers by Strategically Using Twitter Lists
I think this is one of the most underused features on Twitter – a lot of people don’t realize how to use them.
Twitter lists are where you can manage all of those relationships you’re building. They help you keep track of the important conversations.
One of the most common ways to use Twitter lists is to filter tweets.
For example, if you’re following 5,000 people but there are only 300 of those people that you want to make sure you don’t miss their tweets – you can set that up on a list.
Another great use is to organize and categorize Twitter accounts you follow – put them in a list! For example, a special group in your community: “Favorite Bloggers” or “Digital Influencers.”
Twitter lists are a great way to get laser-focused on those people that you really want to go deeper with – those people you want to build a relationship with. Begin this process by keeping up-to-date with their tweets and their relevant conversations surrounding your niche.
Post Planner CMO, Rebekah Radice, suggested another great use for Twitter lists. She uses them to keep up with all her new contacts from conferences and events.
You can take that one-on-one, in-person networking you did at an event to a new level by extending the conversation beyond that day. -Rebekah Radice
Pro Tip - Don’t forget to add yourself to your Twitter Lists. If someone subscribes to one of your lists – you want to be included on that list!
4. Get More Twitter Followers by Being More Visible… TWEET MORE!
That’s right.
Whatever you’re doing now, step it up.
People always ask, “How much and how often should I be tweeting?”
The answer to that depends on your Twitter goals.
Why are you on Twitter in the first place?
What are your strategies?
What are you there to accomplish?
How many followers do you have? How many followers do you want?
There are lots of things to consider.
The quantity of your tweets matters – but quality always trumps quantity.
We recommend that you tweet as often as you can while still being able to send out high quality info and engage with your followers (to build those important relationships).
You want to build a community – not just set your account on auto-pilot.
If you spend an hour or 2 curating content to post throughout the week and then schedule it, that leaves you more time to engage with your followers on a daily basis.
Don’t forget to plan time for that engagement each day. Make a commitment. Put it in your calendar.
If you’re using Twitter as a marketing tool, I would say 15 minutes in the morning and 15 minutes at the end of your day (maybe more – depending on how large your following is).
Just get in there and interact… acknowledge people and the fact that maybe they’ve shared something of yours or they’ve responded to something of yours.
Check your Twitter analytics. Where do your followers live? If they’re global – be sure you’re tweeting in more than just your own time zone.
Scheduling your tweets is the key to tweeting more… which brings us to our next point.
5. Get More Twitter Followers by Scheduling Your Tweets (Do this PRONTO!)
It’s important to note that scheduling and automating tweets are 2 completely different things.
Automation is when you just put everything on autopilot, whereas scheduling and queuing up your content is strategic.
For example, you’re going out and you’re finding content that is relevant to your followers, and you are scheduling that content.
When you schedule your tweets – you’re consistent across Twitter, regardless of what time of the day it is. You free yourself up so you’re not constantly on the hunt for great content.
You can come onto Twitter and engage for a few minutes instead of feeling like you’ve got to be sitting on Twitter 24//7.
On the other hand, if you automate everything and never check in – you’re just signing up to have someone’s feed post to your Twitter account.
You don’t know what kind of content you’re putting out there. Remember – it’s your brand! Everything you put out there is you.
Post Planner Editor Extraordinaire, Diana Adams, recommends scheduling all of your posts for the entire week on Sunday night.
Then you don’t have to stress about it during the week. Just pop into Twitter throughout the day and engage. It’s makes it all very simple. -Diana Adams
Post Planner adds to that simplicity because it allows you to schedule content based on your custom posting plan.
You select which times you want posts to go out – and even decide which type of content (links, photos or status ideas) you want at which time.
This allows you to be hyper-strategic about how you’re planning your content. You can read more about that at How to Plan Your Posts to Get More Engagement.
Here at Post Planner we have a global fan base, which means we need to have content tweeting 24 hours a day.
As a result, this is what our posting schedule looks like (we schedule 14 posts per day):
The reason we post our content at :45 past the hour is in hopes of catching people when they’re browsing Facebook and Twitter while waiting for their next meeting or appointment at the top of each hour!
6. Give Your Post a Paid Boost
Although getting your post featured on a Channel is awesome, it isn’t enough. You need to help your post go red hot.
After your content gets attached to the channel, you need to quickly drive lots of traffic to it. This will help push your post to top of channel, as opposed to being just listed on the channel in fifth position (or wherever it ends up being shown).
You have to get to the top spot. How?
Spend a few bucks (no more than $50) on Facebook and Twitter promoted posts. This will help quickly drive lots of traffic to your LinkedIn post.
