Retweets for Week ENDING 4/16/2011 Please be KIND and RT others who RT your posts ! NOTE NEW NOTES below

hi everyone! This week's RTs will end on SAT 3/26 so that we can start the new week on SundayPlease don't forget to RT everyone elses to keep our group going strong! have a wonderful week!! karma people!

Please read the notes below

1) 140 characters + spaces .. including RT @yourtwittername

2) If you post a RT and it gets RT'd
you have to RT something from the person who RT'd your post

3) if you have a limited time RT please indicate that it has a deadline. Please include a
DO NOT POST AFTER XX/XX date..
because posting after a sale is over or a contest is over wastes the time of the person who posts it, RTs it and also the consumer who clicks on the link and finds that the event is long done.

4) Please do not keep listing the same RTs repeatedly. Either change up your tweet title or alternate weeks that you list them.

When you repeatedly run the same content on Twitter over and over again, Twitter views it as spam and they can boot you off for running that same content. We don't want that to happen.
If it's a contest, that's not a problem because it ends.

However REGULAR posts, should not be RT'd repeatedly every week.

5) please use URL shorteners and also you can
advance schedule posts & TWEETS across the week. -- that's important.

Don't dump all your tweets at one time.. you lose the advantage of twitter and get some exposure to a variety of people at different times of the days..

6) Please do NOT Post about politically charged topics.

by posting about tea party, pro-choice/life, this is not the spot for political perspectives. It can cause yoru post NOT to be RT'd and also cause problems on twitter. we want twitter to like us.. and to like you.. and that you get lots of followers. to do that, you have to play nice.

7) please try to post on a variety of topics.

If you only post about baby or children's things, less people will RT them, fewer people will read them on twitter. You narrow your audience. By including broader range of posts, you increase your audience/readership potential.

8) if you have any questions just ask us!! thank you,

Shelley & Stevie

1) Everyone has been scheduled.. between today/tomorrow.

RE JUSTINE's RT postijng..

not heard about this before. Ok I just tried it and it had problems and didn't post. I have now tried 3 different times..

This is not a good sign for RTs for Justine..

So Justine.. I have scheduled all your NEW posts between today/tomorrow.. and if you don't see something from me, you can contact Twitter and ask them what's going on.

I would think that 1) there is a problem with your account or 2) it was suspended.. probably the first.. one can hope for your sake..

Stevie

Stevie,

I do not see the RT's done by this amazing group. Does that mean there is a problem with my account

Thanks
