10 Quick Ideas to Tweet About

Continually posting thoughtful tweets will increase your profile’s search relevance and help prevent it from dropping lower in results. Here are some quick ideas.

Example: “Real estate prices just went up 20% over the last four years in Boston. Read about it here: http://news.com//8920”

2. A reaction to a piece of news.

Example: “So happy to hear the Ice Bucket challenge has raised over $40 million for ALS research, and wasn’t just a passing gimmick.”

4. A question related to your career. 

Example: “Anybody know of any real estate associations in the Boston area?”

5. A funny or silly link.

Example: “Can’t get enough of this golden retriever playing with twin babies: http://cutedogs.com/post/3939″

6. An inspirational quote.

Example: “Work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work – Steve Jobs”

7. An observation that’s useful to others.

Example: “There was 7-car pileup on route 128 this morning, if you’re heading into Boston take backroads to avoid traffic.”

8. Something you’re looking forward to.

Example: “Can’t wait for my honeymoon in Thailand in September! Only 23 more days.”

9. Retweet something you agree with.

10. Anything else that’s on your mind!
