#Hash Tags, RE-Tweet and How to Use Them On Twitter

20/4/2012

0 Comments

 
Tonight I was invited to participate as a panelist in a Webinar hosted by The WAHM Weekly discussing Twitter for business and how to use it.  Thank you Emma for the invitation and the opportunity, it was a great experience and I hope I have been able to offer some insight into the Twitter basics.  As discused at the end of the Webinar, I mentioned that I would post further information regarding the #Hash Tags and the RE-Tweet functions on twitter for those who may have missed it. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
 
HOW TO RE-TWEET:
 Have you seen a Tweet that you love, or something of interest on Twitter and would like to use it yourself?  Twitter fully allows this and it is called RE-Tweeting.  

To RE-Tweet a tweet from someone else, simply copy and past the tweet into your "Compose New Tweet" section on your Twiter page, but type the
RT@username (using the writers username) before or after the tweet to give the original writer credit for their content, then post to  your twitter page.   Easy!

#HASH TAGS - HOW TO USE THEM?

Hashtags are created by users and busineses as a way to folow tweets on a particular subject. People use the hashtag symbol # before relevant keywords (no spaces) in their tweet to categorize those tweets and help them show more easily in a Twitter search.  You can click on a #hashtagged word in any tweet to show all of the other tweets in that subject.  Hashtags can be placed anywhere in a tweet, at the beginning, middle or end of the post, it doesn't matter.
Using Hashtags are a great way to present topics and participate in group discussions.  The #hashtag is often used for large group chats, special events etc for discussions that take place in real time, you may have noticed this being mentioned in forums and television current affairs shows.

When creating a new hashtag, take the time to check it first by going to the Discover Tab on your Twitter Page, then entering the #HASHTAGNAME in the search box at the top.  Creating an original tag can often be a creative process!


For those who have benefited from this post, mention us @bluebirdim in your tweet with the hashtag #WAHMweekly so we can follow your tweets!!

 See you on Twitter!
