Have been kind of curious about this, but I think I know the answer already. Do the retweet networks on twitter actually help to market a brand? Isn't it mostly bot accounts who end up following?

To me it just looks like spam, and a lot of the content is recycled anyway. If I remember correctly, this hurts your Google pagerank. Although I guess that doesn't apply to Twitter... But I had a few other thoughts. One is that who's going to convert when you're just retweeting a bunch of free pics anyway. And I guess my main point is that I don't really get the sense that you get the clicks you want. Like when you have a few tweets with links but those are surrounded by like 200 retweets that don't link anywhere, do people actually see the content you're trying to push?

Maybe I'm missing something. Or maybe what I'm seeing is just people not having a fucking clue and using Twitter incorrectly.

But hey it's not a fucking political thread. Woooohooo.
