You already know that in this section of the Adecco blog we analyse and break down the latest trends facing the work environment. On this occasion we want to address a topic that is on everyone's lips: the increase in characters that Twitter announced rcs data portugal few weeks ago. Specifically, it is a kind of experiment that some users who were chosen at random were able to enjoy and that the social network of the little bird has decided to expand. In the next few days, all Twitter users will be gradually allowed to write messages of 280 characters, except in Japanese, Korean and Chinese, where 140 was not "a barrier".

That's why we recommend that you start practicing in this blog so that when you finally have double the capacity of your messages, we give you some tips to create tweets that can impact your followers and spread across the network.

Share quality content. It doesn't matter what characters you have at your disposal, the most important thing is that you choose well what you want to share with your followers. To do this, stop and think about your personal (or professional) brand and make it fit what you want to convey.
Keep it short. Even though Twitter has given you 280 characters, you don't have to use them all if you don't have to. In fact, we recommend that you condense your message as much as possible to ensure that it is read in its entirety and can be retweeted with some commentary.
Pay attention to spelling. With 140 characters, any expert would recommend that you leave aside abbreviations and take care of the spelling of your messages, but if you have 280 characters at your disposal… it’s a must ! Forget about “q”, “xq” and “grcs”, it’s better to look for alternatives to shorten your texts.
