5 Twitter Tips for Power Users by Kenyans247(1): Thu 16, July, 2020 01:23am |
Here’s a common pattern many Twitter users have followed: join Twitter, you try to be active but in the end fail to understand the platform. You then take a break for some time then come back to Twitter and end up becoming addicted to the platform. Twitter seems complicated for quite number of reasons. Navigating and understanding the platform can be stressful sometimes. Listed in this guide, however, are 5 tips to ease your Twitter usage experience.
1. Twitter Lists Your timeline will always be littered with many tweets talking about different topics. In case you want to follow up on specific topics, you can create a Twitter List and add accounts that share information around that topic. The lists feature can also be used when tracking your competitors. You can create a private list and add all your competitors and you will be able to see their content without necessarily following them. 2. Use of the Period You probably must have seen someone place a full stop (.) before they mention a Twitter user at the beginning of the tweet. If you are tagging someone to your tweet and want many people to see it, it is best you start the tweet either with a period (.) or any words but do not tag the account straight away. If you do so, Twitter will assume you want to have a conversation only with the tagged account and they will show your tweet only to the person you tagged and the mutual followers. Schedule a Tweet For a power user, you definitely need to schedule a few tweets in order to free up some of your time. There are lots of third-party apps like Buffer, Hootsuite, Crowdfire, that can enable you to schedule tweets. Twitter also introduced native scheduling via their desktop version although scheduling has also been possible on Twitter’s Tweetdeck desktop app. The choice of platform depends on your tastes and preferences but Twitter’s native schedule tool does just fine. Advanced Search Just in case you want to make a more specific search or need to find an exact tweet or tweets from particular users, an advanced search is a great option. Head over to Twitter’s advanced search, Fill in the appropriate fields to refine search results. Click “Search” to see results. Fill in the appropriate fields according to your search needs in order to perform an advanced search | Twitter Tips Twitter Keyboard Shortcuts When using a desktop or laptop, use the following keyboard shortcuts to navigate Twitter.
