Custom Twitter Backgrounds to Attract More Twitter Followers
Custom Twitter Backgrounds (see below for examples) can hands down increase your followers! If you are using Twitter to get business exposure then you need as many followers as you can get your hand on.
What if I get a follower who doesn’t appear to be interested in my Twitter topics?
It doesn’t matter. When “SarahJ” becomes a follower of you, your tweets show up in her Feed (where all of HER followers can see what tweets SarahJ’s followers make). So, naturally, someone else in SarahJ’s network will be interested in what you have to say…then that person will follow you too. Now you are showing up in that person’s feed where even more can see what you have to tweet. See how it snowballs??
There are plenty of tips I can give you about maximizing Twitter. A few include…
- Tweet often! The more you tweet, the more followers (and business!) you will get.
- Try twittering at different times of the day to see when you get the best responses.
- Use tools like Social Oomph to schedule tweets to drop later (if you’re busy like me), twollow to auto-follow targeted followers that are interested or working in your market, and/or TweetDeck to manage multiple Twitter accounts/profiles.
- Find competitors and experts in your field and follow them. Then you can monitor their network and actions to gauge what you should be doing to get in the game.
- Re-Tweet what others have posted if you think it will add value to your Profile.
The Biggest Tip of All??
Create a Custom Twitter Background to drive all of that traffic back to your website or blog! What do I mean? Look at these examples below: (click on the image to view the live account)

Custom Twitter Backgrounds have many benefits:
- Promote your eBook or published book! In the first example (Wendy Mack) we promoted all 3 of her books and added an Amazon and Barnes&Noble logos to tell her Twitter followers where they can buy the book! (Note: You cannot have clickable links on Twitter backgrounds as it is all one big image – that’s why you want to list out links clearly.)
- It’s best to add a picture that’s different than your profile picture (if you can).
- All 3 examples have URLs to their website or blog for easy reference.
- You can list what other social networks they can find you on (Facebook, Linked-In, etc.)
- You can promote what you do, such as in example #2 and 3. Example #2 says, “Author, Speaker, Consultant”. Based on his Tweets, book and website you can tell that Stephen S.S. Hyde discusses his views on Health Care Reform.
The goal is to use all of these Social Networks to promote you, your product/service, and your goals. People like to help people and never before have we had the unlimited potential to get so much exposure. Take advantage of it!
