When it comes to attracting and keeping the attention of Twitter users it is critical to stand out from all the other Twitter users and the best way to do this is with a Custom Twitter Background. Twitter is an amazing tool for keeping friends, family and even clients connected but the User Experience needs to be exceptional and Custom Twitter Backgrounds will enable you to keep and hold the attention of your visitors. It’s really quite basic to create your own custom Twitter background and we’ll go over the basic steps you’ll need to do.
The first step is logging into your Twitter account, once you are in you need to choose what style of image to use for your Twitter background. The image you decide on should directly represent what you are offering, if your Twitter account is based around sports, a sports-related theme should be used. Spend some time choosing the correct image and in the end, the right image will make all the difference. Remember that the majority of the ‘activity’ on your Twitter page will occur in the center, so choose an image that isn’t too ‘busy’ in the center.
Your image should be large enough to prevent the necessity of titling of the image, that is, if your image is too small it will automatically be repeated either vertically, horizontally, or both to fill up the blank space. Your image should be as large as 1600×1200 pixels to fit perfectly.
Once you have the perfect image it’s time to upload it to Twitter. Once logged in to your Twitter account click the ‘Design’ link found under the ‘Settings’ button. Once clicked you will see a button labeled ‘Change Background Image,’ click this button and upload your new background image. Once it’s uploaded you’ll be able to test it out, if it looks good to you, perfect, if not you can go back and choose another different image to use.
The Tweeters Digest
December 4th, 2009Heard of Twitter? If you’re like most, you’re interested, but more than a bit confused about the website and all it entails.
In fact, you might even be wondering why in the world anyone would even use such a thing.
Believe it or not, it’s not a quirky technology only kids or web geeks are using.
Twitter is becoming more main street every day.
Understanding the simplicity and value of Twitter is simple once you understand how the concept works and seeing how many ways people like you are finding to use it.
More than a few are even using Twitter to make money online.
What is Twitter?
Twitter is a microblogging platform – It publishes short phrases and sentences online in your account.
Why share a few sentences with the world on a regular basis?
Because there are so many interesting things to say and share with each other!
Unlike most blogs, you’re not broadcasting your inner most thoughts and desires to the world as a whole. You’re only talking to friends and family.
Becoming Part of Twitter
Once you set up a simple, free Twitter account, you:
- Invite friends and family members to follow you and your postings.
- Follow other friends and family members to see what they are posting.
- Get company alerts or send them on behalf of your company.
- Stay tuned to your favorite television shows, celebrities and politicians to see the latest headlines and blurbs.
- Receive last minute travel deals not available anywhere else.
- Get special deals and offers for many online and offline retailers not available anywhere else.
Parents and grandparents especially can value tremendously by learning to use Twitter. Once you have your Twitter account, you can also:
- Sign up for your child’s school’s tweets to see what important announcements the school is making.
- Make plans for lunch or happy hour as a group without mass emails.
- Let your family know the plans for dinner and family night.
- Stay in touch with your child’s soccer, swimming, and volleyball coaches for practice times and special instructions.
- Connect and enjoy conversations with your child as her friendly follower.
Other Twitter Opportunities
Twitter might be a huge benefit to already busy parents, but they are not the only ones who can Twitter to make their lives easier.
Twitter has huge advantages for online business and branding as well.
Branding with Twitter
Twitter is the perfect mechanism to use to help establish a company brand. By showing your expertise in a particular field, you not only create a substantial following of others interested in what you’re saying, but you can turn that interest into lucrative sales as well.
Companies and savvy internet marketers are realizing the huge opportunities presented by Twitter and joining up to both expose their brands in a targeted niche market and convert those followers into customers.
Using Twitter is far easier than you think.
I have worked on Twitter since its inception. I’ve come to love the freedom of connection Twitter gives me with my friends and family members, especially when groups of us can come together from different corners of the globe to talk politics or just figure out the next round of Fantasy Football.
I’ve personally experienced and seen the experience with Twitter make a difference in companies, families and individuals. It’s fun, it’s easy to get started and to make it even simpler – I’ve compiled everything you need to know about Twitter into a single resource.

Sure, you can find basic information to get started online, but why spend hours trying to make it all work correctly and then days or weeks more trying to finesse the technology to make it compatible with your lifestyle by digging around online by yourself?
What is your time worth?
Don’t waste time and money when everything you need is in one place.
Wouldn’t it be easier to have everything in one place – from signing up to cashing in.
It’s all inside. Are you ready to start tweeting?
Twitter is just catching on with most businesses and individuals. You’ll be one of the first to have an account and you’ll be able to benefit from those deals and specials many times over making others curious about your good luck and good fortune.

Twitter is quickly become a way of life, and communicating with your friends and family members has never been simpler.
The Tweeter’s Digest has everything you need.
Eat your heart out H1N1, gatecrashers and Aretha’s hat. According to Global Language Monitor — an algorithms company who used their Predictive Quantities Indicator to find their results — “Twitter” is the most-used word of 2009. (A sampling of runner-ups: Obama, stimulus, outrage, and vampire.)
It’s not really that much of a surprise, considering how many news outlets have consistently referred to Twitter in order to gauge viewer opinions about everything from the Iranian presidential election to Anderson Cooper’s necktie choices. Though, admittedly, it is a bit hard to believe that the leader of the free world was surpassed by a social networking site mostly used to broadcast the amount of Doritos crumbs currently resting on one’s shirt.
Far more entertaining is Global Language Monitor’s list of top phrases of 2009, which is topped, naturally, by “King of Pop.” But when folks weren’t thinking about Michael Jackson, their minds were at the movies: Slumdog Millionaire’s “Jai Ho!” and 2012’s “Mayan Calendar” are on the list as well.
Surprised by these results, PopWatchers? Has “Twitter” dominated your vocabulary? (As an avid LOLcat fan, I would say the word I used most this year is “nom.”) Do you think Twitter will continue its media domination, or fade away next year when the next social networking phenom hits the Interwebs? And see Global Language Monitor’s complete lists after the jump.
