Strategically Communicating

As UO professor Kelli Matthews told her J207 class last winter term, social media is all about your sound-to-noise ratio, meaning you may tweet a lot, but are you tweeting to tweet, or are you tweeting with a purpose? These 10 steps to attract more tweets may seem simple and obvious, but I think that logistically they make a lot of sense. I notice with my own tweets when I hashtag or add links my tweets are retweeted at a much higher rate than when I don’t. Given our recent Twitter assignment I thought this might be useful for the the class!
