(1) “How to Follow and Un-Follow People,” pick the people that you want to follow you but don’t feel obligated to follow them back. Only follow the ones that you feel you have a common interest with. You should follow people that you trust. Don’t feel offended if someone chooses to un-follow you.
(2) “Be Up Front about Your Twitter Aspirations,” always make clear of who you are on Twitter and what you represent, even if you need to add a link to a personal page of yours.
(3) “Be Personal,” don’t be afraid to be yourself! Tweet about issues that have meaning to you are welcome.
(4) “Reciprocate Gracefully,” implies to be honest, respectful, and unselfish of others opinions but don’t be afraid to define your views on a subject even if it stirs the pot a little.
