I use an app to schedule tweets and I post about 12 a day one every hour from about 8 am til 8pm. the app I use is at https://www.socialoomph.com and my twitter info is http://twitter.com/cyndi_use
This works great for me. I also post about news and whats hot check out the site http://www.alexa.com They post the hot topics of the web everyday. Hope this helps you get a good idea of how to tweet. I also mix it like ever other tweet is about my company and then the news or whats hot on the web twitter also has a list of hot topics too. Good luck Tweeting!

I utilize hootsuite and am checking out Postling. I usually post 12 times a day, with some benchmark posts tossed in, and depending on the company (I currently manage 4 companies) I toss in a tip of the day, or a quirky comment, I retweet and thank new followers, incorporate shortlinks as much as possible and try to give some personal info. I just started my own social media company called Social Glue. Join me on twitter http://twitter.com/socialglue or check out the site http://get-glued.com.
thanks!

I can tweet 5 times a day up to 20 times a day. I post online bargains, deals and discounts that I find online daily to pass along to others that they might otherwise know about. I almost never tweet about trivial things like what I'm doing or eating and stuff like that; just not my thing. Ususally just about things posted on my site as I mentioned.

I think you should tweet to reflect what you and your fans want. For some that may be what your doing or whatever and thats fine. I just dion't think anyone is really interested in knowing what I'm doing when I'm not posting deals.

I tweet professionally, as follow-up, such as feedback, with news, with information and communications.

There are some Twitter "experts" who compare Twitter with a party.
We go to a party to find friends, talk about something relevant, things we like, activities we share, food, fashion, some gossip and of course what business we are, witout being pushy.

Three to four posts a day is a good average.

Dec 11, 2009 - It took me a few months to figure out that all Twitter users are not created equal and don’t have the same agenda. It’s much more complex than “cool people talking about cool things.” In order for you to come up to speed faster than I did, here is an explanation of the principle types of Twitter users, how they predominantly tweet, and a recommended approach to each of them.

1. The Newbie. “What am I doing?” The Newbie signed up for Twitter less than three months ago and thinks it’s all about lifestreaming: “Watching my cat roll over.” These people quickly progress to a different type of use or abandon Twitter when no one pays attention to them. Motivation: curiosity about Twitter. Recommended approach: understand.
2. The Brand. “What can I get away with?” The Brand balances the tension between using Twitter as a marketing tool and socially engaging people so as not to appear to be using Twitter as a marketing tool. Motivation: greater brand awareness. Recommended approach: observe.
3. The Smore. “What’s in it for me?” The Smore (social media whore) sees Twitter primarily as a self-promotion tool to get something from people although a transparent Smore (“Bubbles”) is often a delightful person. The delusional ones are the pains. Motivations: making a buck off and gaining followers. Recommended approach: tolerate.
4. The B****. “What can I complain about?” Despite deriving this name from female dogs, this is usually an angry man who envies people who generate content. They can be briefly amusing in a “shock jock” kind of way, but their bark is greater than their bite, and their bite is greater than their insight. Motivation: generating angry reactions. Recommended approach: block.
5. The Maven. “What’s interesting in my niche?” The Maven is an expert in a field such as recruiting, marketing, or web design. If you’re interested in their field, following them is a rich, rewarding, and time-saving experience. Motivation: getting retweeted and recognized as an expert. Recommended approach: follow.
6. The Mensch. “How can I help?” Mensches are few and far between. They lurk in the background until people need help and then they either know, or know how to find, the answer. They are seldom well-known or highly followed, but they save you tons of time and effort when you want to know something like the ideal dimensions of a profile background. Motivation: helping others. Recommended approach: adore.
Now comes the hard part: What kind of Twitter user are you? To make Twitter an effective tool, you need to be a Brand, Maven, or Mensch. To go even further, you need to be able to adopt the roles of Brand, Maven, Mensch, and a touch of the Smore, and that is truly an art.

The Brand
The Smore
The B****

It is essential to understand the purpose and that is Networking because everything has Ups and Downs, you have to represent yourself and try to get ahead in the circle of this network by first entertaining yourself as you would go to a movie or a club of any type of your likes. Remeber this is a club and we as all members like yourself would have to find your comfort zone. Some are here for business, some for dating and some because they got nothing better to do.

I hope this answers your question nd if you need more help always ask the customer service.

I use Twitter a few times a week when I have new pets for adoption, have something important to share about what the government is doing or I just find a really cool site or app to share.
