      Yes It is proper etiquette to follow them back.

      As a business account, I wouldn't bother - why clutter your business feed when those people post?

      You're likely never going to post to someone directly, unless you are replying to something they send you first. You're a business, not a person IRL.

        When someone follows your company on Twitter, is is considered proper to follow them back?

        No

        If you aren't going to interact on their posts, then why follow them? It is normal for companies to have more followers than they actually follow.

        You should be concentrated on following users with a high value shareable content. That way you can share their content and in turn gain more followers yourself.

        This is good social media. For companies, your feed would be overloaded if you followed back everyone who followed you.

        Twitter is the shout-into-the-void platform, and while is good for short term interactions, doesn't quite have the "get to know us" quality that communities and forums do, given our industry--those quick burst interactions might be good for selling soft drinks, but not servers.

          Is social media a "right and wrong" type of art, or is it more personal preference?

          We are starting ti delve into social media, and I;d love to figure out more about Facebook, Twitter, and anything else we should or should not be doing.

                Are you implying I should Google it?

                I've been down that road.

                49% say respond
                49% say don't respond
                1% is cat memes
                1% is porn that is somehow associated with social media

                Lind of like ML, without the porn.

                    So wait? Is that really what you were saying? Google it? Come on. That's like Googling "what is the best raid level"?

                      I meant that there was too little porn.

                        You still haven't answered if you were trying to send me to Google, LOL.

                        If you were, I prefer:
