A study shows that many find common Twitter tactics like excessive use of hashtags, demanding retweets & likes, and the tradition of following back annoying. The subject was recently posed to the SMT community to gain additional clarity into what Twitter users are most concerned about in this regard.
The practice of just using a hashtag for just about every word was at the number one spot. Hashtags link people to larger discourses, therefore using random terms as hashtags won't work. No one goes on Twitter and looks for what people use as their '#morning hashtag’. Nobody is searching for any broad match hashtags, and they're also improbable to connect with the irrelevant tweets as a consequence. Given that individuals have been misapplying them ever since the advent of social networking sites, they're unlikely to alter their ways now.
Below are some ways to avoid misusing them:
• Perform some studies to figure out which hashtags would be highly relevant for your tweets. Twitonomy offers information on the most popular ones used by any user, allowing to develop a better understanding of this aspect.
• Once a collection of the most popular hashtags has been compiled, pass those into an application such as Hashtagify to get a better idea of the overall popularity of each one.
• Make a summary comprising the most prominent tags according to overall use by inserting relevant ones. Although it's not going to be the one likely to utilize, it will provide additional knowledge on whatever hashtags are trending.
• Use a service like Twitter Trends to find another present, popular hashtags. It allows diving deep into genuine trending by area.
• Analyze tags usage, remove the ones that aren't linked to business, and focus on the ones that are more probable to be used by your desired group.
When aiming to persuade users to press on a CTA in a tweet, Twitter suggests that including any tags at all can weaken your content by offering your users another option to engage with. Unless you want to draw attention to a particular activity, you should skip them altogether to stress on the aspect as people aren't fond of seeing random ones anyway.
The runner-up goes to follow-for-follow, which evolved into a more frantic approach with time. Robotic DMs generally seem to be a big no & attempting to rely on irrelevant fashions can come across as trashy and unpleasant if not implemented carefully.
That is to say, don't try to grasp completely off-topic debates. Unless you can provide a brilliant, label version on some movement, like Oreo's 'Dunk in the Dark' tweet during the 2013 Super Bowl, it could help. It must be strategic and clever to be effective.
Becoming a civilized Twitter user isn't easy, but maybe these tips can assist to minimize some of the most common blunders and annoyances.
