Twitter Retweet Competitions

Options
Hi ALL

Pretty new to this comping but building them up slowly.

Got couple questions:

When entering a twitter competition does it matter which tweet you re tweet and I see most companies will tweet the same comp numerous times all showing different amounts of retweets.
Is it the case if I enter one then it will pick my entry up????

Also does anyone keep a track of there winnings v entries to see how well they are doing and if so do you use a spread sheet of some description.

Thanks

    It doesn't matter which you retweet they should all count
    However the way companies choose winners on twitter is in debate

    As for entries V wins - check this thread

    The challenge group averaged 1 win for every 1164 comps entered

    I don't bother much with twitter now. 13.4k tweets for a couple of low value prizes. Some seem to do ok on there but there are so many bots now it makes it very hard to win.
    2017 wins = £1350
    2016 wins = £125 (18 months off comps)
    2015 wins = £6,460
    2014 wins = £1,350

    I dont think the bots win that much/often tbh. I dont comp much on Twitter anymore as work gets in the way but when i have looked through other compers profiles all it seems to be is moans and groans about the same names winning everything suppose thats taking the fun out of it for everyone. Id just like to know their secret!
