Twitter hits 25 billion tweets
Of the 25 billion ‘tweets’, how many are you responsible for? Not enough I suspect! Whilst I have been impressed by the number of dental practices getting on board with Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn etc, I still think we have a way to go to catch up with other proffessions. I think the one thing to draw from the below article is how important topical tweets are – it’s Christmas, why not offer your very own white Christmas with a discount off tooth whitening?It may be twee – but it might actually work!
Twitter says that more than 25 billion tweets were sent in the past year, as global events such as the World Cup have boosted traffic on the micro-blogging site.
It claims that more that 95 million tweets are now sent every day.
