Tribe Tuesday – the Greatest Thing to Hit Twitter Since Follow Friday

by Kathy on January 14, 2010

Tribe Tuesday? What is that, you may ask…well hold onto your hats because you’re about to learn about one of the most inventive ideas to come down the highway in quite some time. Way bigger than Follow Friday, because it will give you much greater exposure and benefits than the popular #FF.

If you take a good look around my blog you may notice that my more recent posts have substantially more retweets, comments, and Facebook shares than my older ones. In fact, my most recent submission, dated just 3 days ago, has 11 retweets and 9 comments – while a very well written, informative post I wrote 6 months ago / has 1 retweet and 0 comments.

Not only is the older article written on a subject very near and dear to the heart of practically every blogger out there, but it’s been available for viewers for a substantially longer period of time. When you do the math, it just makes sense that it should have a far greater number of retweets and comments than the brand new content, right.?

So, what’s the difference? You guessed it….Tribe Tuesday!

Tribe Tuesday is a brand spanking new concept that is bringing both novice and expert bloggers tremendous exposure.  It’s being used in conjunction with blog syndication networks and is so phenomenal that it’s popping up all over the place in Twitter as a hash tag, much like the well known #Follow Friday.

It all revolves around us helping each other out, which is so much more refreshing than the old school business philosophy that competition is the name of the game. What’s happening is that tribes from all over the world are gathering on Tuesdays and promoting each others’ content. This includes blog syndication and commenting, Twitter retweets, social bookmarking,  Facebook shares, and subscribing to each others’ video sites then rating and commenting on videos.

Wow! Does that sound like a lot of work? I guess it all depends on how you look at it. Would you rather be all alone out there promoting your own work, or have a team of others who are doing it for you? Kind of a no-brainer, right?

The tribe Tuesday concept revolves around the whole principle of leveraging. Most of us have been taught that it’s better to work with others to leverage our time and efforts than to work alone. Just as Fridays have been designated as the day to promote our favorite Twitter “peeps”, Tuesdays have been designated as the day to take massive action on behalf of our fellow tribe syndication partners;  hence the name…

If you haven’t yet embraced the concept of joining a tribe to work together on blog syndication I highly advise you to do so. Be sure that you do some research and find the right tribe (this one action can make all the difference in your results).  If you haven’t found a tribe that feels right to you, I’m involved in 2 that I would highly recommend.

Whether you join one or both of my teams or find another to be a part of, be sure that you catch the Tribe Tuesday wave!

ps – you don’t have to be a member of my tribe to share this post with others. Be sure to click on the green Retweet button and/or the blue Facebook button…..and I’d love to hear your comments on Tribe Tuesday!
