4 Mistakes New Twitter Users Make

Great post.

Cheers to you! Couldn't have said it better myself.

As a relative 'newbie' to twitter I found this very useful, thank you. I agree with wileyccoyote in that quality, not quantity is what matters when you are looking to add followers.

I think you are right on with this article. When I first joined Twitter, I didn't interact or post for 3 months! I just watched and "listened" to people I was following so that I wouldn't make mistakes once I started interacting.

No worries,
We've all been on that boat before. :)

This was good advice--short & sweet for new Twitter users--Thanks, Aaron

The larger percentage of the people I ended up unfollowing (not too many actually, about three or four) consists of those who use auto tweet. One that got my goat was feeding as many as 8-10 tweets a minute. Unfollow, unfollow, unfollow.

The Autotweeting has to be the Worst of course what Jon Mos said about Directing Twitter to a Facebook Page has to be included they want you on twitter and facebook just to ignore you

Nothing can be more irritating than the auto tweet.

So true... I bet everyone has made some of them :)

Good tips. I agree..

Or my all time (not) favorite: using Twitter to direct everyone to your Facebook page.

Being that I am new to Twitter. well... still just don't fully understand it this was a great rookie tutorial. I am using twitter to hopefully meet others in my field, learn from them and share my knowledge. Thanks

well said!

Thank You

One thing that I've been doing lately - in response to #2 and #3. I actually schedule ONLY my personally promoting tweets. On the surface, that probably seems like my emphasis is in the wrong place, but what actually happens is just the opposite. Because I now know that my "work side stuff" is all done and accounted for, I am truly logged in to connect and talk with people. My time spent on Twitter becomes even more focused on others and what's going on there. Now, like you said, don't overdo it - but again, by scheduling your promo stuff, you get a real visual of exactly how often you are tweeting your own info out. For me, it's easier to see that it's not too much in a list than to have to think about it each time I log in. Food for thought as people jump in and start learning the tool.

Great post bro.

when i was a newbie , i used to follow the point No. 4 !! haha i was not engaged at all but now that is not a thing and now i am used to twitter and i love it :)
