Be proud of your Twitter!
I love Wednesdays! It is the day when OH & I usually go out on a picnic somewhere. It is the day that we have a
slower than usual start so it allows me to sit with a cuppa & look at the entries for the Gallery over at Sticky Fingers.
I have got a good process sorted. I upload my entry & then make a start clicking on the other entries already posted. I read them, comment (can’t see the point of reading & not commenting!), copy the URL then look for their twitter id.
Now I’m aware that not everyone who posts on the Gallery has a twitter account but most do. I’m a firm believer that we should support each other. Not only in reading & commenting on blogs but also by promoting them. For me that means tweeting them.
So…imagine my frustration when I can’t find their twitter id! I try to search for them using my best detective skills to try to fathom out what it might be from the blog name or details. I have to own up – sometimes I get fed up & give up!!
I’m happy to click the twitter label but what would be fab is for twitter names to be clear & easy to find! So, this is a plea from someone who wants to support your blog – please help by being proud of your twitter!
(Many thanks to @vwallop & @jennypaulin for taking immediate action!)
Great post, think I’m far too easy to find already 😉

My twitter name is all over the place. I was going to start a new account that married my blog name but I had so many friends already – plus the fact that that I already manage about three other accounts AND the name I wanted had gone (but isn’t updated ggrr).
I agree with The Moiderer that it’s all about branding when lining up an account with your blog so that’s why I have my blog header as my avatar!
I might get back to you aboiut branding & the new blog!
Thanks for stopping by!
I agree! Very pleased you’ve written this. I know you’re following me anyway, and likewise x
what a lovely lovely thought. I’ve done this many many times myself, wanting to tweet their blog and not being able to find whether they’re on twitter or not and then remembering dimly seeing them on there but totally can’t recall their ID!
So YES. Be loud and proud about your twitter account and let us find you.
Thank you for commenting! It means so much & hopefully people will make it easier for us to publish their blogs!
As it’s you asking and you are so gracious with your re-tweeting I will oblige immediately, well as soon as I next switch the laptop on. Plus your post shines of headteacher and so I’m too scared not to. x
This head teacher thing is worrying! I purposely toned it down! 🙂 Thank you for reading & commenting!
You are great at promoting other gallery posts it’s a lovely thing you do 🙂
I never realised my twitter ID was not so easily found!!
Thanks for the mention and keep up the good work! X
Thank you for taking action!!
You do put most people to shame with your generosity when it comes to retweeting other people’s posts (note to self, must try and do that more). I do have a “follow me” button on mine, but it doesn’t actually mention my twitter id. Shall rectify it immediately!

Well done! You may be due a merit & extra playtime like @vwallop & @jennypaulin!
I totally agree! It’s nice to comment when you read someone’s blog. Xx Jazzy
I’ve never understood not leaving a comment really. Thank you for popping in!
Ah, you are LOVELY! And I have to say, I think you have always been super duper supportive on the retweeting front! Not everyone does it and you made me feel very welcome very quickly!!
Keep up the lovely good work!

Aw thanks Maggy. It’s great when you can support each other isn’t it!
My Twitter ID is the same as my Blog name. I’m all about branding lol
Well done! It makes it much easier doesn’t it!
