Need some handy tips? Stay tuned as we reveal &#8220;7  Powerful  Rules  For  Twitter Viral Marketing&#8221;</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>1. Stand Out From The Crowd</strong><br />
Your personnel brand is how you can stand out from the crowd and rise above the noise of your competition. Make sure you take the time to create a remarkable personal brand! Remember competition is fierce, you have to make an unforgettable impact.  Define your target audience, give them high quality content jam packed with solutions to their most annoying  problems.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><img class="alignnone" title="Twitter Viral Marketing" src="http://i683.photobucket.com/albums/vv192/socialtrafficespionage/social%20media/iStock_000006428830XSmall.jpg" alt="" width="425" height="282" /> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>2. Follow People With Similar Interests<br />
</strong>Lots of people get hung up on the number of followers they have. BUT this means nothing if the people who follow you are not interested in your business or product. It&#8217;s best to build and nurture a following of people who have similar interests because they are more likely to be genuinely interested in your business or product.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>3. It&#8217;s A Conversation, Not A Continuous Sales Pitch<br />
</strong>Twitter is a  Social  Media  site, it&#8217;s for conversations. Get involved with others by responding  to other peoples Tweets or start a conversation with others. Mind your manners and resist the urge to jump into twitter and broadcast one continous  sales pitch.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>4. Tweet , Tweet, Tweet<br />
</strong>Its important to<a href="http://socialtrafficespionage.com/blog/12-terrific-twitter-tips/" target="_blank"> tweet </a>often.  Make sure your tweets are of high quality, interesting, and informative. The idea is to engage other people in conversation not send them to sleep. Mix it up a bit&#8230; You can include quotes, links to videos, pictures, jokes , or interesting articles .</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>5. Dominate Your Niche<br />
</strong>It doesn&#8217;t matter what your niche is its imperative that you own it .  Position yourself as the expert in your niche by solving problems for others. Comment on blogs within your niche  and  don&#8217;t  forget to include your Twitter URL.  This can assist  in connecting you with the kinds of followers you want to attract.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"> </p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;"><strong>6. Get Retweeted<br />
