It is true that in order to generate the most buzz with Twitter that you have to provide quality content. This means that you need to NOT SPAM and provide content that your following would be interested in. Now let’s say you are doing all of that. The quality of the content ROCKS! Your followers are for the most part real and not bots and yet you wonder why you are not getting many Retweets, @replies or hits to your site/blog.
The problem could be WHEN you are Tweeting and not WHAT the content is. You might be Tweeting when most of your following is sleeping, working or not at their computers. Find out when your followers are connecting most often and then try again. All too often I see businesses and individuals trying to connect on Twitter at times like 3am. Most people are asleep (well most except night owls like me lol).
Remember that when you Tweet is just as important as what you Tweet!

Twitter is interesting. I have a friend who follows 3k and has 70k followers which looks pretty impressive. Yet, I haven’t often seen that much traffic when he retweets my posts. I suspect its because he uses Hootsuite to schedule retweets on his old blog posts.
