Help with twitter please

Hi, i've only been trying to do competitions for the last couple of months... no wins yet, but i'll keep trying! Just wanted to check I was doing the right the right thing with the twitter competitions. I am literally pressing the follow button, when required and then clicking the retweet button under the main competition tweet shown. I am not doing any new tweets at all. It seems to show in my own twitter feed but can't see it on the site which is running the comp. Is this right? Also if you win on twitter do they contact you on twitter or email? Sorry if this should be common sense but i'm a little confused!:o

Thanks for any help!

    hi, it sounds like you are doing it right, i always follow and hit the retweet button and have had several good wins this year, i also enter some twitter comps with twitaculous.

    if you press connect at the top it will show if you have been mentioned as the winner of any comps, and also check your DMs too as some, like the krave comp only seem to send DM's, good luck x
