Retweeting Tips

A retweet involves reposting a tweet (on Twitter or some other social networking sites)that was authored by someone else. It uses the form RT @username. This lets your readers know where it came from.

Retweeting is a great way to give credit to users who post a lot of great content and is a way to share their great information with your readers. Some tweets can go viral and spread to many thousands of readers.

It's best to use discretion when retweeting and only retweet items that are really worthwhile. It's also good to actually check any links to make sure they are appropriate and actually working before retweeting.

If you have a post that you would like to see retweeted, it's a good idea to keep it shorter than the 140 allowed characters to allow room for you to receive the RT credit.

Welcome to My Social Media Blog!

I love social media. I enjoy spending time on sites like Twitter, Facebook and Friend Feed. I also make some money from these sites and use them to promote my businesses and website. I wanted to start a blog where I can share some of my discoveries.

I plan on posting articles, videos and links that I think will be helpful. I always welcome and appreciate comments. You can also subscribe to my feed or follow me on Twitter.
