How can you use Twitter Lists as a Marketing Tactic?

Twitter lists are lists that you can use to create your own feeds. There are so many uses for these, whether they’re business related, personal, or simply to try to keep the madness of your feed down even just a little. ou can easily put your competitors into a Twitter list to keep an eye on what they’re doing. You’ll want to make this list private, though, so that they don’t catch on to what you’re doing!


There are a couple of reasons for doing this. One, you can keep an eye on the traction that their tweets are getting. Are they getting a lot of interaction? What are they doing well? You can also see the types of content they share to get inspiration for your own account or to see examples of things that you don’t want to do.

It’s so important in the social media business world! One of the best ways to use Twitter lists is to help you interact with specific people who are interested in specific topics! If you found a particularly good article that you’d like to share with other who are interested in the same topic, just search for you specific Twitter list and post away.

Many business owners follow thousands of people on Twitter so it can be hard to keep your conversations going and not lose them all of the time. Use the list feature to stay up to date and target specific groups with interesting and relevant information posted specifically for them!

Twitter turned an official list-searching feature on for awhile, then off for awhile, then on... and now it's back off. Most searchers gave up at that point. Not you though! You're here to learn the trick, right? Don't tell anybody, but here's the workaround: Google and Twitter are friends again. To search for Twitter lists from your browser, use this string: site:twitter.com inurl:lists <your search term>

By listing people into specific groups in a public way, they will be notified and immediately hear about your brand. If you’re added into a list, you naturally want to know about the people who have put you there. In this way, you are connecting with more people, flattering them and getting them even more intrigued with you brand.

As you can see, there are so many wonderful opportunities when it comes to using Twitter lists! Frankly, we could go on and on about them all day, but we know you have other important things to get to!
