The Full Power of Twitter

What is the Frontier Between Being Informative and Being Spammy?

In my personal opinion it goes back to the quality of your audience. Meaning by that, that if the topic if interesting to them, most of them would love it. On the other hand, the wider the variety of ‘tastes’ among them, the greater the chances to have more unhappy readers. In Summary, the more you narrow your audience in these terms, the better your content will be appreciated. If you are building a network of people interested in Fitness, then deliver content related to health and fitness, and avoid sending an unrelated topic like ‘stamp collecting’, even if among the people interested in Fitness some of them might like stamp collecting, chances are, that more people would love to have a healthy life content, or a fitness one instead.

The untold rule is, to treat the rest of the people as well as you would like to be treated. Get used to this habit and you will se how your followers will be increased, Do You know why? Because if they like your content, they may even retweet it! So you will get exposure to their friends, and some of them would be interested in following you! This behavior could go on and on. That is the nature of viral content, the better you deliver the more people that will be willing to resend your tweets to their followers.

People love videos, save the url of a relevant video in your niche while you are surfing, most people would be grateful for the sharing.

Same goes for an interesting article, blog post, forum message and so on. Remember that the more specific, interesting and informative your content is, the more exposure you will eventually have.
