Running Twitter for Beginners

Recently I got an email requesting for “A guide on running a twitter account”, so today I’ll be sharing with you (if you’re still having challenges as a beginner) a guide on how twitter works.

So if you haven’t tried twitter, here is what you need to know

Twitter is a social media site, which lets people share short messages (tweets) of 140 characters with friends (followers).

Getting Started With Twitter

1.   Go to the website www.twitter.com and register an account with your valid email address, username, and password. To let people know you well, add your location, photo and a short description about yourself. 
2.    Tweet: Twitter messages are called “Tweets” and its maximum character is 140 (including white spaces). You can tweet about anything such as your new car, a game you just watched or played, how your day went, something you read etc
3. Retweet: Retweet or “RT” lets other people (twitters) to forward your tweets to their followers.
4. Hash tags: Hash tags (“#”) when included to a word, makes it easy to search.
5. Tweet ups: using twitter to meet other twitter users.

That’s all I’ve got about twitter for new users. For contributions and questions please use the comment box.
