1. Capitalise the first letter of each word in hashtags on Twitter, so #ContentDesign.
2. Use the image description function Twitter to describe the images you post.
3. If you add a GIF image, include a description of it in your tweet.
Example tweet:
"Content designers often like notepads, #InclusiveDesign and cats. [GIF: cat curled up on top of a pile of books]"
