Twitter users are three times more likely to impact your brand’s reputation online than the average consumer.
Although Twitter has far fewer users than Facebook,their regular users are the most influential online consumers, according to a recent study by Exact Target.
Their conversations fuel discussions across all areas of the internet–from blogs and forums to product reviews and coupon sites.
The study highlights 5 key findings:
- Active Twitter users’ reach goes far beyond Twitter because they blog, post reviews, comment on news stories and participate in discussion forums
- Their tweets are also indexed by Google and syndicated by the Twitter API
- Twitter also gives these people faster access to breaking news and events than mainstream media
- People regard a branded account more reliable than an individual account.
- But they appreciate the opportunity to interact with the individual account of a high-ranking officer of a company.
