Step 1• Create a Twitter account. If you haven’t gotten around to signing up for
Twitter yet, what are you waiting for? Go to twitter.com and sign up for anTwitter yet, what are you waiting for? Go to twitter.com and sign up for an account. If you need a little more help, read How to Set Up a New Twitter Account in the resources below.
Step 2• Decide what type of image you want to portray. Part of the difficulty in
setting the correct background is deciding what you want your Twitter page design to say about you. Many folks take any image or graphic and upload it to their Twitter account without much thought. Take some time to come up with something that speaks of your style, taste and personality.

Step 3• Consider the screen real estate. The important information to be viewed
on Twitter occurs in the center of the page. No matter how many images or sayings you have on your background, the center of the screen belongs to Twitter. Therefore you have to create a background that gives Twitter center stage.
Step 4• Go large. Larger images and/or graphics reduce the necessity for tiling
an image. It gives the appearance of one large background specifically made for Twitter. Try starting with an image as large as 1600 x 1200.

Step 5• Remember that all screen resolutions are not the same. The smaller the
screen resolution, the lower the likelihood of your image will have to repeat.screen resolution, the lower the likelihood of your image will have to repeat. In other words, if you elect to use an image that has a flower located to the extreme left of the screen, on a lower resolution screen (800 x 600 for instance), the flower displays once. A screen with a resolution of say 2048 x 1536, the flower will display tiled on the screen several times.
Step 6• Think about using a border. When creating an image, remember that a
small portion of the top of the screen is dedicated to the Twitter logo and user navigation. It’s a little easier on the eyes if the design included a boarder over which the Twitter logo and navigation could sit without having to fight against a busy background

to fight against a busy background.Step 7• Upload your image to Twitter. Once you’ve played around with the image,
upload it to Twitter to see how it looks. Log onto your account. Click “Design” found under the “Settings” tab. Once on the design screen click “change background image.” Once you upload your image, check it out to see if you like it. If you don’t you can change it or use one of the Twitter default images until you come up with something you like.

1. Put a video on your page : I mean a real video, hosted on your site, not on Youtubeor DailyMotion. You need a .flv file (or .mpg, .avi, .mp4) and a video plugin thator DailyMotion. You need a .flv file (or .mpg, .avi, .mp4) and a video plugin that supports this kind of video formats. Jing is perfect to record onscreen action and make nice video tutorials.
2. Create a thumbnail of your video : that’s the thumbnail that Google will display on its search results page, so making a good quality thumbnail out of your video is an important step. Personally, I’ve found that 160×120 gif or jpg works well for that purpose….and they actually don’t need to be extracted from your video. Any image pertinent to the content of your video will make the trick.
3. Create a video sitemap : Video sitemaps are XML files similar to usual sitemaps but
using a different syntax. See an example below.4. Submit your video sitemap to Google : Video sitemaps can be submitted in
Google Webmaster Tools exactly as a standard sitemap. If you had not yet registered your site in Google Webmaster Tool, that’s the perfect occasion to do it now.
