A simple glance through contemporary magazines, (whether traditional paper based affairs or online), will soon demonstrate just how obsessed with image the western world is today. We too are guilty of driving this obsession, and a simple glance through the best backgrounds for Twitter will prove this to you.

They are important on two main levels; to inform and entertain. It is getting these two factors right that will help you boost your rankings and number of followers. There are a lot of us out there; we need to make sure we are memorable.  Whilst the quality of your tweets will be all important, the image you present of yourself through your background will help keep visitors hooked. It is not all about glossy finishes though; indeed, more important is regards the info you give of yourself.

Twitter themselves has of course done most of the groundwork for you and, the background selection they invite you to look through is, whilst not extensive, well presented and laid out.

Once we know what we are doing with our Twitter blogging though, then it really is necessary to put a little more effort in; particularly if we want to make it work for us.

The settings page is easily navigable, and selecting to change your background with one of your chosen images from your PC or laptop is self explanatory.

Once the image is selected, you then only need to decide which way to display it; tiled or centered. Be sure to check how the definition is altered when selecting this, and if tiling, make sure it doesn't distract or create pain to the eyes.

It is also worth paying attention to such areas on screen as your sidebar; ensure all info is presented clearly and concisely - you can't embed links. Logos can be incorporated too, if you are using Twitter as one of your online marketing avenues.

People who have a site (or a blog) can have "Twitter follow buttons" on their site that will send them directly to your twitter page so that they can decide to follow you.  After all, if they are reading your site, they must have an interest in what you have to say.

As with blogging in general; the backgrounds for Twitter you decide to run with should be reflective of you and your personal image. Try to tie them in with your tweets, change them on a regular basis, and do not be afraid to go back to Twitter's own set of templates if you aren't inspired for a short time.
