Turn negative into positive?


Every local business should be listening and
learning from the online word-of-mouth
conversation customers are having about their
business. The smartest local businesses are going
one step further by responding online to positive
and negative reviews from customers.³

Trending Topics

÷ xwitter trending topics are words, phrases or


topics that get tweeted multiple times. These topics
become popular either through a concerted effort
by users or because of an event that prompts
people to talk about one specific topic. These
topics help Twitter and their users to understand
what is happening in the world.

Trending Topics :: Tools
0 ome of our news producers set up Google Hot xrends as
their home page so they can monitor what keywords are
being searched within the hour. If it¶s important on the web,
it¶s most likely important to the x viewer.

Our team also monitors the local xwitter trends. xwitter trends
breakdown into certain markets, and Washington, DC is
one of them. When we tweet, we make sure we use the
same popular keywords that people are already using so
the chances of them seeing our posts are much
greater. For example, there is a trend in Washington, DC
for the word 0ollen´, so we¶d rather use that word than
Allergy.´
