Business Improvement and Social media

'Twitter hashtags can be an incredibly useful tool, and after reading Twitter’s latest blog share on how to choose a Twitter Hashtag, I figured I would share my list of tips on how to improve your Twitter hashtags.'

A tweet only has 140 characters; with such a small amount of characters at your disposal, you need to make the most of each one.

The perfect tweet consists of three main parts: your message, a link and blank space. Here's what each section should include:

Message:

Call to action: Tell readers what you want them to do.Hashtags: Include one or two to increase your reach among people who don't follow you.Tone: Use your own voice, but in a professional way.Format: Use a mix of headlines, questions and statistics to drive clicks and retweets.

Link:

Shortened URLs: Bit.ly links earn the most retweets.

Blank space:

Leave room for at least 20 characters at the end of your tweet so retweeters can add comments.
