When you're starting out, getting traction is hard
Pick a niche and stick to it
Find big accounts in that niche and interact with them
This will increase your visibility and get you initial followers

Share stuff that you know or that you are learning (related to your niche)
You don't have to be an expert
Tweeting what you are learning is also a great way to grow

Friendships and connections > followers
Prioritize friendships and quality connections over lots of followers
Connect with the right people that won't unfollow you quickly
This will also improve engagement in your tweets

Avoid using hashtags
I almost never use hashtags. I find that tweets without hashtags do better and don't look as spammy
When you use hashtags you look like you are promoting something, instead of talking to people

Be consistent!
At least 2 quality tweets per day (unique tweets, not replies)
If you have nothing to say, don't force it
Quality > quantity

Reply to as many people as you can that interact with your tweets
Engage with your new friends and don't leave people hanging
It's also a great way to "bump" up your tweets because your connections will see your replies and naturally see your original tweet

Reply to your DMs
Be helpful and respectful, you never know who may become your next client
Most of my social media leads come from Twitter DMs
If you ignore them, you are missing out

Ignore the trolls
The more followers you have, the more haters you will attract
Mute or block them and move on
They are not worth your time

If you can afford it, give back to the community with gifts and giveaways
It's a great way to give back but also get more followers
Beware that these new followers may also unfollow you quickly and this is why building friendships is more important

Stay away from contentious subjects
This is a bit controversial because people want to use their voice if they have a big following
There is nothing wrong with that
It's your account and do whatever you want with it
I stay away from these topics because it's not for me

Have some fun and don't take things too seriously
Focus on growing your network, engaging with cool people, and learning
The rest will fall into place
