Twitter Networking Hours For Businesses

Get Networking On Twitter With Twitter Networking Hours

So what are twitter networking hours and how do they work?

They are a great way to get connect with individuals and businesses, grow your follower base and increase your overall business exposure.

By using the # (hashtag symbol) infront of a word or phrase without spaces within twitter (it also works on facebook too) you make that word or phrase searchable. You can either click on it or enter it into the search box and it will bring up all the tweets recently done by people who have also used that specific #.

Networking hours have made use of this feature to enable people to connect with each other during certains times of an agreed day on a regular basis.

At the allocated time (see the list further down in this post), you perform a search for the appropriate #hashtag. You are then able to interact with the other people taking part by tweeting, retweeting replying etc – just make sure you always include the hashtag word /phrase in your tweet.

For example, this is a screen shot of tweets using the hashtag #networking:

You can refine the results to suit your own needs – e.g if you wanted to find networking results local to your area, just click to the left of ‘Near You’ and twitter will scale down the result according.

Here is a list of few networking hours to get you started. As we are based in Cheshire, a number (but not all!) of these relate to networking hours particularly relevant for people based in the North West of England.
