Share: Tweet 

Here's some quick tricks of the trade for getting retweeted on Twitter!

1. Ditch the egg! Your audience wants to feel connected with you on a personal level and put a name (Twitter handle) with a face. Make your avatar a picture of your smiling face, no one takes the default egg picture seriously!
2. Add a bio to your Twitter profile so, again, your audience can connect on a personal level.
3. Add a link to your Facebook, blog, website or any other online presence you have on the internet. This will successfully get you some cross-traffic.
4. Don't be a stalker. 
5. Be conversational.
6. Know your audience.
7. Know the lingo. Look up basic Twitter how-to guides to brush up on the language.
8. Know the tools. Once again, basic Twitter how-to guides will give you the run down.
9. Include links to useful resources.
10. Always shorten links by using a URL shortener like bit.ly.
11. Leave room for them to retweet by leaving at least 10 remaining characters.
12. Add variety to your tweets. Don't always tweet the same sources (there are other tech resources besides Mashable).
13. Add comments to things you are retweeting. Do you agree or disagree? Let your audience know.
14. Read content before posting. If you're tweeting a blog, read it first to make sure it fits with your subject.
15. Always give credit.
16. Be interesting.
17. Be yourself.
18. Inspire your audience.
19. Entertain your audience.
20. Educate our audience.
21. Provide value! Your audience always wants to know what's in it for them. How can they benefit by following you. What do you have to offer them?
22. Be persistent, not repetitive. If there's a point you want to get across, don't post the same exact thing over and over. Use your creativity to write different tweets.
23. Tone matters.
24. Have a personality. Even professional tweets can have life!
25. Don't just tweet about yourself.
26. Don't complain.
27. No profanity! Who wants to retweet profanity?
28. Be relevant! Old news never gets retweets.
29. Offer variety. Even if you tweet on one subject (Fashion) there's still a variety of topics (purses, shoes, color palettes, culture, etc).
30. Ask questions.
31. Share other people tweets by retweeting them. Nice tweeters will return the favor!
32. Use hashtags as subjects to increase your tweet's ability to get picked up in Twitter searches.
33. Ask for a retweet. There's no shame in asking!
34. Try tweeting at different times of the day to see what your audience responds to best.
35. Measure results.
