Twitter 101 - Finding the BEST Management App.

The Social Media Network, Twitter may appear simple yet managing and optimizing a Twitter account is difficult.  Twitter has numerous subtle “rules” (such as the 2000 following limit) that make growth difficult.  

These subtle rules have opened the door to another set of applications.  These are called Twitter Management Apps.  A Twitter Management App is a simple “independent from Twitter” system that allows a Twitter user to easily do things that Twitter is not capable of doing.

Growing a Twitter account requires an ongoing series of searching and adding followers, following back those who follow the account and “un-following” those who have not followed back.  These are rather difficult on Twitter itself, but the Twitter Management Apps make these tasks easy.  The problem is that most of the sites that allow a person to do this…charge a weekly, monthly or annual fee.  We have found an App that allows a user to do it for FREE!

www.86u.co is the site that allows a Twitter user to follow-back and un-follow others on their account with a few clicks of the mouse!  It also sorts the lists from earliest to latest to make sorting through an account easier.   One other option available on this Management Application is called “Get the Red out.”  This option identifies users that have a low probability of following back.  These 2 simple management applications make growing an account easier and more effective.  You’ll quickly see that “86u” was built for Twitter users by Twitter users.

www.86U2.com is the professional (PRO) version of “86U.co.”  It has added features unavailable on other more expensive Apps.  It costs only $4.95/account/year.  This is a real deal!  There are a few internal applications that make growing your account really easy!  Two of them are:

·         Twitter Mining – Rather than searching through user profiles on Twitter, Twitter mining actually searches out key words used in tweets!  What people are talking about (Tweets) is much more meaningful than what they wrote once in a profile.  This application alone is worth more than the annual fee for anyone who uses Twitter to market their products.

·         Tweeticles – This application allows the user to add “special characters” to their tweets.  Special characters include “hearts” “smiley faces” “chess pieces” just to name a few.  There are over 200 special characters available and it is constantly growing.  Tweeticles makes “tweets” unique and stand out from the ocean.  Tests have shown that more “Special Character” “tweets” are read than regular text based tweets.

If you are using Twitter to promote your book, consider trying www.86u.co to clean it up.  You’ll soon find yourself wanting more…then  www.86u2.com will more than meet your needs!
