Bombarding Your Followers On Twitter With Too Many Tweets

One of the hottest online social media sites is a web site called Twitter. If you are not familiar with Twitter, it is a site where you can meet millions of people from all over the world and have a public, in real time conversation with them.

Many business professionals and companies are using the social media site Twitter as a way to brand and market their products as well as communicate with their customers. When you Tweet on Twitter, each message to your Twitter followers has to be less than 140 characters so it is like having an instant message with thousands of followers at one time.

When you are networking your business over on Twitter you need to be very careful to not bombard your followers with too many Tweets in a short amount of time. What do I mean? I often see marketers make the mistake of Tweeting out 20 Tweets/Messages in under 3 minutes. When you bombard those who are following you with too many messages...it doesn't give them the chance to read it before you slam out another one. When you do this too often, others will also brand you as a Twitter Spammer which is the last thing you want for your business over on Twitter.

When Tweeting...it is important to space out your tweets so that you are allowing enough time in between them for followers to read them. A good rule of thumb is to allow 3+ minutes. The only time this rule does not apply is when you are conversing with a follower or followers in a more personal chatty type of way. However, this rule of thumb does apply if you are Tweeting out business links, web site links or important information that you want them to read.

In conclusion, the next time you are Tweeting over on Twitter...slow it down and space out those important business Tweets. Allow enough time in between them for followers to see and want to read them.
