Guys, thank you very much for your feed back about yesterday’s article on Twitter Optimization. It was by no means a definitive work on the subject but I was happy that you could have found the mentioned points useful, some of you even immediately putting them into practice and getting instant good results.
As a follow up I want to add that while Twitter is an extremely useful promotional tool, it’s important to remember that one should keep Twitter interactions to a minimum where possible. Unless of course you are conversing with real friends and working on your marketing and promotions.
It’s important to remember that very few vastly successful cartoonists spend any time on Twitter apart from the time spent stoking their readership or hamming it up with their actual friends (not followers).
Presently, it is simply the case that it is not cool for most upwardly mobile cartoonists to hang around on Twitter all day just bantering.
That may be a matter of opinion you might insist on saying, but think about it. In the time that you’re gabbing on Twitter, shouldn’t you be drawing your next comic or plotting to take over the world?
