For my final project with my Writing with New Media course I developed a project around the social media platform Twitter. I set out to determine if anyone could apply popular social media strategies to their own personal accounts to gain a large following and engagement with their content. I planned to apply four basic strategies,
- Utilize hashtags and key phrases to get my content noticed in the trending feed.
- Repost, or retweet, content that is highly regarded to direct traffic to my page.
- Use a third party app to enhance my reach on twitter.
- Cross post content from other sites.
In doing so I hope to prove or disprove the claims that the strategies were full proof and successful or if it was just luck of the draw in being social media famous.
