Signing Up
Step 1: Go to www.twitter.com

Step 2: Click “Sign up” on the home page to start a free account.




Step 3: On the sign up form, enter your name, email address and create a username and
password. Twitter automatically checks the availability of your username to make sure

click “create my account.”

Step 4: Go to www.twitter.com and enter your username or email and password to sign
in.

Finding People on Twitter
Step 1: Search for friends on Twitter with their usernames
Click on the "Find People on Twitter" tab at the top of the page. Type the Twitter
username or name in the search box and hit "Search." Click "Follow," located under the
username on the person's profile page, to see that person’s tweets automatically
streamed into your timeline.




Step 2: Search your email address book for friends
Twitter automatically finds people with Twitter accounts in your online address book and
displays them in the search results. Click on the username of the person you want to
add, then click on the "Follow" button, located under the username on each profile page.

Step 3: Accept Follow Requests
If your page is set to “private,” users must ask permission to view/follow your tweets. To
approve followers, Twiter sends an email letting you know what user wants to follow you
and whether you want to allow them to view your profile or deny access.

If your page is public, any user can follow you without approval. To check if your page is
public or private, or change these settings click “Settings” and click “Account.”

Interacting On Twitter
Step 1: “Mention” someone or “Reply” to a tweet/message
Respond to a user by clicking “reply” and typing your message. Your tweet must include
the “@” symbol and the person’s twitter handle (i.e. @johnsmith) within the message for
him or her to be alerted of your mention or reply. This will be readable to all of your
followers.

Step 2: Direct Message (DM)
Send a private message to a follower using the “Direct Message” feature. Note that this
person must also be following you to receive your message.




Step 3: Retweet (RT)
Reposting a person’s tweet, often time seen as a form of flattery to the person whose
tweet you are reposting by hitting the “RT button” or just typing RT followed by the
person’s Twitter handle.




Tips
1. When you notice your content being spread, jump in: If someone mentions you in a
   tweet, don’t let the opportunity pass. Jump in and interact by tweeting them back,
   mentioning them or retweeting the tweet.

2. Shrink URLs: One of the most common uses of Twitter is sharing links. You only have
   140 characters to work with, so instead of sharing a long URL, use one of several
   URL-shortening websites to shrink that link. Some of our favorites include
   tinyurl.com, ow.ly, and bit.ly.

3. Pick a Good Desktop Client: With desktop clients such as tweetdeck, twhirl, and
   echofon receive tweets and alerts in an organized fashion.

4. Completed Bio Section: Fill out the bio section including hobbies and your profession
   in profile settings to create a more personable account. Keep in mind people decide
   whether or not to follow you based on your bio.

5. Choosing a Twitter picture: Make sure the picture you choose, whether a company
   logo or headshot, represents you or your brand.

Glossary/Terms of Definitions

@: a reply to someone’s twitter message.

#hashtag: tagging a specific subject so your followers and non-followers can find your
update using the Twitter search box on the Twitter homepage or just to be clever. For
example, the most popular hashtag #FF (standing for “Follow Friday”) happens every
Friday where users tweet recommendations on whom others should follow (example
tweet: #FF @JohnSmith for his social media prowess).

Direct Message (DM): a personal message that only you and the sender can see
(essentially a 140 character email). You can only direct message users who are following
you.

Follow: people you follow whose tweets show up in your timeline.

Followers: people who follow a person’s tweets and show in their timeline.

Protected Profiles : A private twitter profile with protected tweets.

Retweet (RT): a message repeated because someone thinks it particularly good -- often
times seen as a form of flattery.

Tweet: a twitter message/140-character update. Messages are public unless a profile is
protected.

Timeline: your homepage on twitter that shows all the tweets from your followers.

Step 3: On the sign up form, enter your name, email address and create a username and password.

Read through the terms of service anc click “create my account.” Step 4: Go to www.twitter.com and enter your username or email and password to sign in.   1  
  • 2. SOCIAL MEDIA 101 - Twitter   Finding People on Twitter Step 1: Search for friends on Twitter with their usernames Click on the "Find People on Twitter" tab at the top of the page. Type the Twitter username or name in the search box and hit "Search." Click "Follow," located under the username on the person's profile page, to see that person’s tweets automatically streamed into your timeline. Step 2: Search your email address book for friends Twitter automatically finds people with Twitter accounts in your online address book and displays them in the search results. Click on the username of the person you want to add, then click on the "Follow" button, located under the username on each profile page. Step 3: Accept Follow Requests If your page is set to “private,” users must ask permission to view/follow your tweets. To approve followers, Twiter sends an email letting you know what user wants to follow you and whether you want to allow them to view your profile or deny access. If your page is public, any user can follow you without approval. To check if your page is public or private, or change these settings click “Settings” and click “Account.” Interacting On Twitter Step 1: “Mention” someone or “Reply” to a tweet/message Respond to a user by clicking “reply” and typing your message. Your tweet must include the “@” symbol and the person’s twitter handle (i.e. @johnsmith) within the message for him or her to be alerted of your mention or reply. This will be readable to all of your followers.   2  
  • 3. SOCIAL MEDIA 101 - Twitter   Step 2: Direct Message (DM) Send a private message to a follower using the “Direct Message” feature. Note that this person must also be following you to receive your message. Step 3: Retweet (RT) Reposting a person’s tweet, often time seen as a form of flattery to the person whose tweet you are reposting by hitting the “RT button” or just typing RT followed by the person’s Twitter handle. Tips 1. When you notice your content being spread, jump in: If someone mentions you in a tweet, don’t let the opportunity pass. Jump in and interact by tweeting them back, mentioning them or retweeting the tweet. 2. Shrink URLs: One of the most common uses of Twitter is sharing links. You only have 140 characters to work with, so instead of sharing a long URL, use one of several URL-shortening websites to shrink that link. Some of our favorites include tinyurl.com, ow.ly, and bit.ly. 3. Pick a Good Desktop Client: With desktop clients such as tweetdeck, twhirl, and echofon receive tweets and alerts in an organized fashion. 4. Completed Bio Section: Fill out the bio section including hobbies and your profession in profile settings to create a more personable account. Keep in mind people decide whether or not to follow you based on your bio. 5. Choosing a Twitter picture: Make sure the picture you choose, whether a company logo or headshot, represents you or your brand.   3  
  • 4. SOCIAL MEDIA 101 - Twitter   Glossary/Terms of Definitions @: a reply to someone’s twitter message. #hashtag: tagging a specific subject so your followers and non-followers can find your update using the Twitter search box on the Twitter homepage or just to be clever. For example, the most popular hashtag #FF (standing for “Follow Friday”) happens every Friday where users tweet recommendations on whom others should follow (example tweet: #FF @JohnSmith for his social media prowess). Direct Message (DM): a personal message that only you and the sender can see (essentially a 140 character email). You can only direct message users who are following you. Follow: people you follow whose tweets show up in your timeline. Followers: people who follow a person’s tweets and show in their timeline. Protected Profiles : A private twitter profile with protected tweets. Retweet (RT): a message repeated because someone thinks it particularly good -- often times seen as a form of flattery. Tweet: a twitter message/140-character update. Messages are public unless a profile is protected. Timeline: your homepage on twitter that shows all the tweets from your followers.       4
