Emphasize quality over quantity and you will maintain more loyal followers who are more likely to recommend you. You will also avoid coming off as one of those people who in face-to-face conversation is clearly not listening, but merely planning the next thing to say. Do you really know that many people who find they aren't getting enough out of the information firehose? Be respectful of your followers time. Do think before you tweet. Do space out your tweets when you are pulling together a diverse set of themes (for which scheduling can be handy). Do be real, humane, and helpful.

This article has some interesting points about planning your Twitter activity. I'm kind of conflicted about auto-DMs. I decided that if I don't need to actually send the DM the receiver shouldn't have to actually read, respond or delete it. It just seemed unfair. BUT... I totally agree about timing! For what it's worth, here's a powerful article I wrote called <a href="http://www.joshuaguffey.com/10-ways-to-find-interesting-people-on-twitter/" rel="nofollow">14+ ways to find relevant people on Twitter</a>. If anyone finds it useful, please let me know. -@JoshuaGuffey Hmmmm… This article has some interesting points about planning your Twitter activity.

I don't want to tweet that much info in one day so I schedule some of it into Hootsuite which has "tweet later" capabilities. I believe that you should maintain a consistent presence on Twitter and other SM sites if you want to build trust & credibility. So the days I am busy working with clients or projects, pre-scheduling some of my tweets helps me maintain my presence. I keep an eye on my @ replies periodically through out the day and answer them accordingly so I am still being social and interactive.

Just because tweets are scheduled, does NOT mean it's spam. If you view scheduled tweets as spam, fine. Spam is useless, unvaried, annoying information that goes to hundreds of people. Notice the author implied that you should vary your tweets subjects, and it IS personalized when you share an inspirational quote or a favorite video.. the author specifically said not to bore people with constant blog updates -- THAT would be spam. If to @Non Diet Mindset... 6 to 8 tweets in a day isn't really that much (I must be an addict then because I tweet about 8 or 9 not including responses). Retweeting saves time too if you find something you'll enjoy. I appreciate everyone sharing their opinions, however! :) @Bruce Wagner:

It just seems that you'll be a slave to the computer. I find that if you are looking to have 1000 or more people following you, incorporating some automation is not only practical, but seems a necessary way to manage your following. As long as you offer value I don't see how you are doing any injustice to your followers. I appreciate the suggestions you have made in this article and was already considering using TweetLater as a resource for using Twitter more effiiciently.
