So, how to tweet about your property? Here you can find a small set of best practices and a step by step guide:

Here is my Tweeter account, you are very welcome to engage with me if you like the idea.
- Step 2: Engage actively with them. Help them promoting their new articles and inform them about your property and what you are doing to make it special.
- Step 3: Tweet once a week minimum and if possible everyday. Try to say something informative and/or interesting from a personal point of view. Use the most common hashtags and pointed in my previous article. Remember to post an image about your place from time to time.
- Step 4: A Tweet is better than no tweet. A non sense tweet is worst than a Tweet. In other words tweet something relevant for your audience and do not be afraid to re-tweet something that you already did as long as is something that your audience engage with.
The overall receipt is very simple. However, the devils is in the details and if you want to know more here you can find a couple or article that I suggest you to read:
