My best tip is to tweet a couple times a day and to tweet something helpful to others.Peggy Frezonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11087038771857532951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-5185937853703957582010-08-02T09:55:15.477-04:002010-08-02T09:55:15.477-04:00Thanks for visiting, Carolyn!Thanks for visiting, Carolyn!L.

I hope some of you great commenters come back to see my answers.<br /> <br />Roland, Twitter is one of the few efforts I've made in almost ten years of promoting my books where I actually see sales linked to my efforts. I don't advocate tallying sales as if it's the only marker of success. But it's still nice to see that now and then. So I'm not sure about that "too little return." Plus the networking benefits are huge.<br /><br />My dear old Silly. Thank you. You know how I appreciate you!<br /><br />Elizabeth, you are already good at making Twitter work for you. It's in those retweets you do, girl! (-:<br /><br />Karen, that's exactly what this book does (I hope!!!!). It makes sense of Twitter so it doesn't give you even the weeniest headache. <br /><br />Alex, there are soooo many ways to get folks to follow you. Frugal and Focused Tweeting will give you the simplest, most effective way. But here's one big tip: Let Social Ooomph search keywords for you. That will help you find people interested in the topics you write about. <br /><br />All the rest, just many thanks for coming by. And big, huge hugs to Diane for featuring me today at the beginning of my online launch of Frugal and Focused Tweeting.<br /><br />Best,<br />CarolynCarolyn Howard-Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15041591136206289558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-66111600984543798202010-08-01T20:15:06.343-04:002010-08-01T20:15:06.343-04:00Thanks for the great interview.

I already have too many demands on my limited time.<br /><br />Twitter just seems too much time-investment for too little return.<br /><br />I am old-fashioned though.
