Recently I was speaking to a client who wanted to know how to get more Twitter followers. Other than the standard ways, I suggested that she may want to start participating in tweetchats. Tweetchats are chats that occur on Twitter the same day and time every week, usually moderated by one or more individuals in a Q&A format. It’s a great way to connect with like-minded individuals in your industry.
The best tools to use to follow along in a tweetchat are: Tweetchat.com and Tweetgrid.com
However, it got me to thinking, there are a few handy sites on the internet that showcase a list of tweetchats, but none that were strictly for social media marketers.
