Are You Excluded From Twitter Search?
Hello dear visitor. I have been doing a lot of reading lately about social networks, specially about Twitter, how to use it to extend your blogging experience and how to improve your online search abilities. Some advices I read were very useful, others not so many.
One of the recommendations I've got from 'twitter expert' was that it's OK to post same tweet in different periods of time in order to enable all of your followers to see your tweet. If your followers have many of their owns, few thousand or so, it is quite possible they will not see your tweet and therefor they will not be able to respond, retweet or whatever.
It seems like that Twitter itself is not much favorable of repeating tweets and they see this action as aggressive approach. Their goal is to provide real-time quality search results which is something repeating tweets ruin. That's why Twitter excludes accounts who uses aggressive tweeting from their search results. You can check is your account is excluded or not if you type 'from:username' in Twitter search box. If there is no results, you are not included. I'm not sure when my account is suspended from Twitter search and if it will be restored, but I have learned valuable lesson not to repeat my tweets.

I have changed my tweeting habits and now I post only once, only good content and comments. This has allowed my to rapidly grow the number of twitter followers as you can see on blog sidebar today I already have 5400+ followers.
How many tweets per day do you post? Hubspot claims that 22 tweets per day is optimum, because it is average number of tweets per day across twitter network.

I'm not excluded, but I know a few friends who are. It's pretty annoying because I use twitter search to see who's talking about my favourite topics :-(
it's very annoying because you can't use hash tags properly and your reach is limited to your followers only
