To be a resounding success in Twitter you only have to remember one thing:  help your fellow tweeter to succeed. This means you’ve got to stop obsessing about your own posts and the products that you sell.

Okay.  Let’s go over that once again.  Helpfulness is an irresistible force that can get you places in Twitter.  Being helpful in Twitter means you -

• Stop talking about yourself.  Of course, you know you’re a Diva, a genius, a handsome dude or OMG cute.  Tell you what – unless you’re Nicole Kidman the world will not be impressed.   That’s boring.

• Stop tweeting your own links.  Okay, maybe 5% of your tweets is fine.  Anything beyond that is boring.  Take my word for it.

• Stop the negativity.  Sure, you’re much put upon in the office. You’ve been passed up for promotion.  Your prick of a boyfriend stood you up.  Or perhaps your mother-in-law is threatening to visit your household again.  Go seek a therapist.  Tweeting about this is boring – unless of course you’re Jerry Seinfeld.

Okay, that’s how not to tweet.  Let’s talk about what you can do.
