One of the biggest reason for writing thank you posts every week is to make it a habit.Our bodies and minds respond well to system and habits.We know Monday starts with #MondayMommyMoments and on Thursday we have #ThankfulThursdays and Saturday calls for weekend fun.
Today we are writing about our favorite social media. For me it’s twitter .[bctt tweet=”I am a twitter girl forever #ThankfulThursdays #Thankful for @Twitter” username=”misra_amrita”]
But Pinterest is a close second.
I am relatively new on twitter. Though I started the account when I launched my blog 3 years back.Ir was only during the #MyFriendAlexa campaign 1.0 in 2016 that I started tweeting.There has been no looking back.
What I love about twitter
It’s no-nonsense .fuss free easy to manage and maneuver even for the total greenhorn .
All my online friends are on twitter .I found some of the most suppotive men and women right here with the blue bird.
Its super fun doing twitterchats when the topic is interesting.Its like a party onlyy online.Everything moves fast but the fun is in the extract !
Its alive !
Yes, it’s truly madly vibrantly alive, breathing and pretty crazy sometimes.
All the biggies in politics, entertainment, sports are on twitter and often behind their own handle.The only social media where you might have a chance to connect with the biggies in your industry .
Its great for bloggers.My second biggest traffic source is twitter .I have so much fun with twitter that its no trouble sharing others work and your own .Its analytics are also great.
Its great to curate topics depending on #hashtags .It helps you find important events happening and news, very much in real-time.It’s a wonderful way to connect with brands .It also has great contests .
Its great for earning .Yes you can host sponsored twitter chats .Promote a brand .Run a contest,giveaway announce products.One of the easiest ways to monetize your social media presence is twitter. I use the Skreem app for this.(recommended by Utpal Krishna @foodietweeter ).

Cool things you can do with twitter:
Make your own moments with your own tweets, curated tweets and publish them.
IFTT scheduling of Instagram with twitter.Its a fun and painless way of saving time.
Use storify to put curate tweets on a particular topic or # .
Find brands you want to work with .Follow people in your niche to make meaningful connections.
Cons:
Your tweets have to be saved in moments if they are precious or for brand work .Otherwise you will lose them.
Trolling on twitter is pretty ugly.
In between: The political debates on Twitter.Everything gets said in your face and loudly.
But all good things have to battle evil and Twitter is here to stay.Writing this for #ThankfulThursdays .
