The fall semester at Rider University<\/strong><\/a> starts in just a few weeks. In preparing to teach my students about writing for social media, I came across an interesting tool: <\/strong><\/a>Twitter Grader<\/a><\/strong> from HubSpot. The tool is designed to help us measure our influence on Twitter. The Twitter Grader site says, “Twitter Grader is a free tool that allows you to check the power of your twitter profile compared \t\t\t\t\t\tto millions of other users that have been graded.”<\/p>\n

It’s easy to use and also offers some tips and suggestions. I entered my Twitter user name (@kathymagrino<\/a><\/strong>) and got a grade of 97.5 out of 100! It’s good to know I’m doing things right — The Write Way \ud83d\ude09 — on Twitter!<\/p>\n

Try Twitter Grader<\/a><\/strong> for yourself and let us know your grade. And please share any suggestions or tips you might have to help us all “make the grade” on Twitter by posting your comments here.<\/p>\n

Until next time, see you on Twitter and take care!<\/p>\n
