How take advantage of certain twitter followers

7 replies
Hi. I have a 3 1/2 month old website about exams for certification of personnel in the oil and gas industry. So far I am doing fine (second page of google)

Basically what I do is take an existing oil and gas standard that you need to study to pass the exam, and write article about the subjects on it, improving it for people to better understand the subjects. Of course, there is a finite amount of information to study, so I expect my site will have at most 150 articles.

I use my personal twitter account to market the posts. Recently I went out and followed several twitters related to my niche and now I have 4 or 5 followers back that sum up to 30000 followers themselves.

How can I make some of them retweet my articles?
I´ve thought about contests for their followers, etc. What can I do?

Thanks

    I would also suggest you follow their followers. Also, sharing interesting, engaging posts should work as well. And use other social media websites too, don't limit yourself to twitter only

    It doesn't hurt to request retweets occasionally either; i.e. "please retweet"

      But make sure to do the request via DM. Public asks rarely get retweeted.

      You can also write a message to the people with the large following. Don't start the tweet with their name, but have it in the body of the tweet and add a period in front of their name and their whole list should see it.
