Can anyone help guide me with twitter comps plz?

Options
Hi, I've been comping for years and have always avoided TW comps although I enter many FB ones. But lately I've noticed lots of decent prizes up for grabs on TW so I'm gonna bite the bullet and join....

Trouble is, I don't understand it!! Can anyone give me a brief explanation of what I need to do to enter the comps this way? I see terms that say follow and retweet a lot - how simple is this to do? And are you supposed to comment too? How do they let you know if you've won?

Sorry for all the questions, I just wanna make sure I'm doing it right lol

    just rt, dont need to comment but some arsekiss to try and get noticed, they DM if you win

    but goodluck with rt'ing thousands for no reward
  • Sax is right - I won once on TW and that was with a required comment - apart from that I've RT'd some 6000 useless bits of cyber dross for no reward - I'm almost done with it now and that's before you consider all the cheats with their bots and God alone knows what else!
  • ive won 3 times since august on twitter, but ive rt'ed thousands..

    but i am a bogger, and i did have a pretty active account in other ways, since starting a dedicated comping account along side my original ive won nothing.. so if you plan on starting twitter just for competitions i wouldnt bother to be fair. although they are simple and only take a second to do.

    You must live near me in the Fens and have webbed feet too. I'll look out for you next time I'm eel hunting.

    hhaha oops! thats what happens when your quickly replying whilst children are arguing!
  • if someone RT my RT for a competition are they entered into the comp?
    £32 worth of prizes in 2015 so far
  • I've won some decent prizes on Twitter, including a £100 Boux Avenue voucher - 12 (including two 'effort' ones) since July (since I've been logging), which isn't bad, and some before that. 5575 tweets altogether though - which is a lot! And I'm also a blogger, which may or not make a difference, I'm not sure.
