So I guess you are reading this blog post because you are not so familiar with Twitter. Twitter can be a powerful marketing tool for your business if used correctly. At DCP we use Twitter regularly to publish our recent completed website design projects, blog posts and YouTube How-To Video Tutorials.

As you know content king so you should keep your website up-to-date with the latest news and blog posts. You can't sit in front of Twitter for 24 hours of the day to post your content so you need a tool to do this for you.

At DCP we use Hootsuite which is a cost-effective solution for posting content across all of your social networks. You can create a bulk schedule for 24 hours in advance and post automatic content to all of your social media accounts with minimal effort. At DCP we find the best time to post content is at 12 pm, 6 pm and 9 pm for our UK based social media followers.

We also use Bitly to track which posts are getting clicks so we can understand what content is working best. Most social networks now support hashtags (#), you can think of hashtags like categories and if you use your hashtags correctly then you have a better chance of people finding your content.

Why not take a look at the infographic created by VirtuAdmin for more useful Twitter business marketing tips.

Social Media Ecommerce Shopping Statistics for 2015

We use social media for everything. We no longer just interact with our friends and family; we use it to conduct business, find out information and – make purchases. I might follow a company on Twitter to find out more about their products, watch their videos on YouTube, or ask my Facebook friends for a recommendation. More and more of our shopping is done online, making it pretty likely that some form of social media is involved.

Turn your Pinterest account into a revenue driven social media channel

Pinterest is an awesome way to share your interests and hobbies and keep track of fun future projects. Unfortunately, it’s often seen as just that – a site purely for sharing hobbies and having fun. Frequently associated only with crafts, DIY and the like, Pinterest is often looked upon as the domain of the hobbyist, and not taken seriously as a valid media for businesses.
