4 ways to build Trust for your Twitter Account



The mad Twitter rush, “Kindly follow back” or when we search for accounts to follow but worry about their authenticity. Also, we find that even when we tweet and have high expectations about the tweet, we hardly get any engagement. People are hesitant to retweet, mention or quote How do we then grow our twitter account?
Twitter users follow accounts that they can trust. And engage with them based on trust. So to increase your twitter engagement, you have to ensure your followers trust your account
Turn your brand into a reliable source of tweets, retweets and mentions for an even bigger audience. By doing this

Your Personal Signature
Twitter users prefer to follow brands that they can identify with so don’t hide behind cartoon or avatar images. You need a picture that will represent your company but at the same time won´t look too formal – try showing your logo from a different perspective. Also make sure you update your profile with relevant information on your brand and on the content you will be tweeting about.

Tweet Your Expertise
Try tweeting some of your company’s expertise or know-how. Your fans and followers will definitely appreciate the exclusive content you can offer on Twitter and it will make you stand out as a reliable expert and source of information.
 
Build A Strong Tweeting Fan Base
People tend to trust and engage more with tweets that have been retweeted or mentioned by friends, brands, organizations, media and by other accounts they follow. The more engagement your brand generates, the more you can get recognized and trusted by others.

Tweet Correctly
Please no “gbagaun”  Take your time to double check your posts for grammar mistakes and mistypes. These mistakes can undermine your credibility and give out the impression that you were in a hurry or didn’t care much about what you have been typing.

Grow Your Social Followers Through Your Blogging




Do you want more Twitter followers, Facebook fans and Google+ followers? Blogging gives you a platform and provides opportunities where you can encourage readers to connect with you on social media.
Why do you want to build relevant followers through your blogging? These will be some of the best social followers for your business as they will be the ones most interested in your industry and in your content.
A relevant and targeted audience can ultimately turn into more leads and conversions for your business through social media. As you grow your targeted following on social media, you can also expect to receive more engagement when you share your content on your social profiles.

Here are some best practices to follow.
If you want to grow your Twitter following, be sure to use the official Twitter retweet button. This allows you to add your @username to the tweet and encourages people to follow your Twitter account after they tweet your posts.


Gain new Twitter followers when people tweet your content.
Include a call to action at the end of your posts to the effect of “If you enjoyed this post, please follow us on Twitter or become a fan on Facebook.” This also helps increase your social following. But only promote your main social media accounts. Giving too many options may lead people to choose not to follow any of them.

Since your business blog’s design will likely feature a sidebar, include follow buttons so visitors can easily follow you on the top social networks.
