Been thinking about all the quality work you do :) Good :) I am not taking any classes this semester, so everything is good. Getting ready for next sems. :D A1 I’ve been hosting Twitter Chats for almost 2 yrs now, at least weekly. Even “ghost-hosted” some. ;) I think you told me that. Apologies if I forgot. I have trouble remembering my own classes ;) Hey Kavita, nice to meet you :) You are welcome, Deborah. I enjoy sharing your tweets. Your content rocks:) A1 I love twitter chats as you get to meet folks that have the same interests which is fun Hello Eric. Good to see you here. It's a great place to be Oh, thank you! So does yours. I was on your site and it was like, I have to spend time here! u rock! Yes, I've been busy. But I didn't want to miss another tweetchat. Hugs:) Yup...then I got involved in your other chat (B2C chat..I think, which you co-hosted with Gail). A1: A year ago, I had an unused Twitter acct with < 10 followers. Now, I have > 850. Mostly gained through Twitter chats. how is the job going? It isn't new anymore, eh? Is doing anything for holiday events? it is a great way to get more followers as well as followers u actually like!! , you own ? Thats cool, I was just using it today. Thanks for the great info on twitter chats. That's phenomenal growth! Why thank you. I appreciate that. My site will be going through some exciting changes before the new year:) Awesome. Good to see that you got results for your efforts :D MT A1: A year ago, I had an unused Twitter acct with <10 followers. Now, >850. Mostly through Twitter chats. Speaking of, I think I've seen you at the chat, too. Do u use a specific calendar to find chats? You are having great results building your audience:) Yeah, you won a cool relationship package in party, eh? Yep, that's me :) Thanks for the compliment! That is a really good point! I love Twitter Chats to get to know people. A1. over the years I've had such a wonderful time seeing the growth of Twitter chats/parties. I love them! for sure! With all the talk of fake followers, I love the chats to get with real people who share my interests I found that a lot of ppl who participate in one chat go to others as well. I follow their recs. It's funny because brands used to associate twitter parties only with mom bloggers. But I'm seeing the shift Another good point! Fake ones don't chat ;) This is my 3rd tweetchat in a row today. I have become great at creating tweets:) Aww, thanks, Deborah. You're swell :) xoxo Q2 How are you using Twitter Chats or Parties in your business? (Even as a participant.)
