Home / Blog / Top 4 tips from Twitter Users to News Organizations

A long while back I asked my Twitter following to tell me what advice they would give to a news organization (or any company really) thinking about getting started on this platform. Here’s what they had to say:

  1. @ddmcd - “Don’t Twitter anonymously — identify real people with specific addresses.”
  2. @shawnr - “Tell them to NOT add their RSS feed to their Twitter stream — That’s one of my big annoyances with the Tweet…”
  3. @RockinPRGirl - “The most important thing they need to do is listen and interact with others. Just broadcasting is not going to work.”
  4. @Stacybond - “(1) Promote streams on the air (2) Send something out at least 3 times a day per station/twice if you’re a show (3) Use hostnames.”
I couldn’t agree more. What advice would you give?
