A good guide for messages to share on social media is to follow the rule of thirds. Think in terms of social media marketing. No promotion? It’s just social media. No dialogue? It’s just marketing.
1. Promotion
Send out links to your articles, blogs and content. You will have to do that repeatedly for people to notice. But too many and you will come across as too focused on your own content and who wants to follow that? Too few and you are not using the promotional value of social media.
2. Sharing
Share other people’s content. Retweet and like other people's posts. Applications like Buffer can be useful for scheduling these. Try to get the balance right. Too many of these tweets means you won’t see much traffic to your own content and too few means you’re missing opportunities to help your audience and connect with others.
3. Conversation
Ask and answer questions. Thank others. Reply to other people's messages. This is a great way to build connections and make new friends.
