What is Twitter?

Twitter is a social networking site that allows you to connect with friends, colleges and businesses by micro blogging. Unlike a blog twitter allows you to write comments known as a tweet. This can be a general tweet that anyone who is following you can see or you can tweet another twitter user personally. A tweet can be about anything, you can comment about what you are doing today or maybe voice a political opinion or connect with friends to make plans for a social event.

What is Twitter used for in business?

Twitter can be the perfect tool for business as it allows you to connect to your clients on a regular basis. It allows all parties to stay up to date with one another and promotes a closer working relationship. It can be used to contact your clients to get answers quickly for a query rather than using phone or email. 

Twitter can also be used as a promotional or marketing tool as it allows you to get your business seen by a wide range of people. You can use it to advertise events you are holding or a product you are selling as if you tweet about it all your followers can see it.
