A FEW TIPS ON HOW TO SPREAD THE WORD
Tuesday, March 31st, 2009I noticed a lot of people following the CUBE on twitter who happen to be new to it. So I thought it would be cool to put together a “how to” in terms of making twitter (and more) work for you and how YOU can help spread the word.
I know, I know, why would I help other people win MY dream car? Well, cause I want to help. The task at hand right now is to help spread the word… so I figured if I would help others do so!
So, here’s a few tips on how you can help spread the word and get yourself noticed!
So, you’re following the Hypercube. AWESOME! but you need to follow more people. Why? Well think of it this way. You are the leader of your little space on twitter. If you are only following the hypercube (let’s now refer to the hypercube as the overall ruler of the world for the purpose of this analogy) then anytime the ruler asks you to help spread the word, you’re only spreading the word back to the ruler
so, first things first, you can start by following some of the other people following the Hypercube here You will also want to start following other people, friends, co-worker, random people
that way, you’re not only preaching to the converted!
@Franciscochu sent this to me today to help you as well: http://twitter.com/twitter_tips/ if you follow them, they will give you daily tips and links to help you get versed in all things Twitter.
Another good tip is, if you are trying to communicate with the hypercube on twitter, then you should always have @thehypercube in your update. If you don’t put that in, then The Hypercube won’t know you’re talking to them
One last thing with twitter, if you put #thehypercube at the end of all your posts about/to The Hypercube, then everyone can see what everyone’s doing via a twitter search like this.
That should get you all set with Twitter!
There’s lots of things you can do Facebook to help spread the word. The most oblivious and easiest would be to start a group! Invite all your friends and tell them what you’re up to! You should also become a fan of The Hypercube here! You can also post all the stuff you’re doing there.

Now, this is where we get into the serious stuff
One Hypercuber (of many!) that are doing what i’m about to mention, is Sunny Crittenden She so rules at this that it’s not even funny. Another way to help spread the word is to get on message boards, leave comments on blogs, your local paper’s site… so on and so forth. You can see how Sunny is owning this realm here.
Now, with all these tips, you should be able to rule this. I hope this was helpful and i wish everyone all the best in this amazing Quest for the Cube!
