Are you a Social Media Robot?

When media users discern if your social media content is genuine or not, their B.S. detector will tell them if you’re a real human or a robot.

Robots on Twitter

All you tweeters who use twitter automation tools, you’re putting your personal brand at risk.  If you’re tweeting from countless apps, how do social media users know if you’re actually you?  Are there other people tweeting on your behalf as well?

Overall, I’ve learned to keep it real on twitter by:

1. Syndicating my own “brand” as me.
2. Taking time out to “reply from web” instead of countless other programs shows the consistency of my personal branding efforts.
3. “Reply from web” also keeps my conversations genuine, well thought out and useful to my fellow tweeters.
