Getting authoritative tweeters to notice your tweets

The authoritative people you should "follow" are those relevant to your niche or industry.

Don’t forget to also include Twitter and other social media platforms share widgets of your choice at the foot of every informative article and blog posts. This is a great way to generate several backlinks – it pays to have many people share your links, especially when they’re personalities with authority.

Incorporate hash-tags(#) when you post links and tips. But, you must know the hash-tag that is popular at each point in time. Also, get to know if such popular tag is relevant to your industry, then consider related tweet that you can use such hash-tag with.
