    Twitter is king for me. Right up there with FaceBook and Instagram.

    Use https://twitter.com/search-advanced to target them by location.

    I think Twitter is popular all over the world and it still continues to grow.
    There may not be that many people on there from London as there is in the US but I'm sure as the new generation grows twitter will become more and more popular in London as well...

    Basically it's worth having in my opinion.

    I've been getting more into Twitter lately and they are getting me traffic for sure. Plus I will soon ramp things up by trying Twitter ads to see how that goes with a bunch of campaigns. I notice I get much more clicks to a link in a tweet than I do from a Facebook post.

    To be honestly, I agree with you! I think that FB is more better than Twitter! But a lot of people use Twitter and they like it! Such social media can help you to conect with others people and make some money! I think that everything will be fine)

    If you are not converting any leads through twitter then you might want to popularize your fb deals with twitter. Also engaging with target audience on twitter might prove useful

      In my opinion, Twitter is still useful! Especially, when your followers are people from London!
      But also I recommend to use other social media for your business, such as Facebook, Instagram, MySpace, Pinterest, LinkedIn!
      Good luck!

    Twitter is effective with proper #tags
    Don't create border with geographical tweet. Just use proper #tags and reach the potential customers

    Twitter can be effective, but it depends. If you have a site that is constantly updating and that readers will want updates for, twitter can be very helpful. If you run an e-Commerce company where users won't expect or need any updates with any frequency, then Twitter probably won't be much help at all.

    27 posts saying the same thing 'Twitter is useful' but none of these experts pointed out a feature of Twitter that the OP would find useful.

    Strange as its bloody obvious.

    Yes it is still useful.Twitter is continuing to be a necessary social media network to be on if you own a business or are an industry influencer. Twitter has millions of users and more people are joining it every day, which makes it one of the best places to look for potential customers. Small businesses catering to a niche market or people from a certain location can use Twitter to connect with them. Not just that, businesses can also connect with their existing customers and interact with them to know more about how the business or brand is being perceived in the market.

    I am one of those people who thinks that Twitter is still useful and most of the people prefer to use it more often than Facebook! I think it worth to think about it! Also, it should be mentioned that using Twittres gives every person a platform where they can express their views just in 140 characters. I think it is great!

    I have been using Twitter but have not gotten good results. I would always look at the analytics/statistic icon under my tweets and saw a lot of views but got no sales.
