You couldn’t have said it any better Doug, great post. RTing is a powerful and pay it forward type of thing, I always retweet great content that I found useful, so I know my followers will find it useful too, and when I am retweeted myself, I make sure that I thank that person for doing that, because they didn’t have to. Show love to other on Twitter by RTing good content and you’ll get it back in return

Thanks for these tips on retweeting. I will be checking TweetDeck out as soon as I finish this comment. I suppose it will become obvious when I start using retweeting, but how do you know when a Twitter user retweets one of your tweets? This is truly a great and useful post.

I have a great deal to learn about Twitter, there’s no doubt about that. For instance, how would I retweet this post?

Hi, Lonnie!

Great questions! Because yor post goes out with @LonnieMinton at the start of it, a retweet of your tweet starts with RT @LonnieMinton. This brings it directly into your ‘All Replies’ column, one of the ones you should always check first (along with the Direct Messages column).

As to how to tweet a blog post, if you scroll up to just under the post itself you’ll see a link marked “Twitter This’. That’s a plugin every Internet marketer, affiliate marketer and Twitter marketer should be using on their blog – it allows readers to hit one link to twwet the heading & link to that particular post.

Hope it helps,

Doug.

Excellent tips. I was wondering if there really was any benefit to retweeting. Now I see there is a REAL benefit in doing it. Thanks Ron Barrett’s last blog post..Using Article Marketing to Drive Laser Targeted Traffic

Thanks for the tips Doug.

I was one of those people that didn’t really know how to use Twitter properly. (Heck, I still don’t, But I am getting better)

I to have been picking up on retweeting others tweets and it is truly a win-win situation for both parties.

I also use TweetDeck and at this point couldn’t live without it.

Thanks again for the great tips!

Thanks for the valuable information Doug. I didn’t completely understand the concept of retweeting until now. I learned something new today.

Yours In Success,

Thanks Doug!

Certainly, one of the best Web 2.0 platforms that we could all benefit from building relationships. I ‘kinda got lost at the start, but, now getting back RTs and DMs from people all over T! is a big boost to this ever-growing social media.

P.s. I’d be RT this post to my friends as well!

Thanks Doug, I'm occasionally as dense as a rock, and couldn't figure out how to retweet from Twitter itself. Since I've returned to Tweet Deck it's much easier but I don't always catch all the tweets there. I have a couple of TweetBeep Alerts that I wanted to retweet, and now I know how.

There is much more to Twitter to consider and the basic guidelines don’t tell much.

Large numbers of followers need management, relation building and retweeting the correct post based on what you want to achieve.

I’m not even close to fully understand how to “work” twitter.

So your guidance is much appreciated Doug.
