Twitter doesn’t sound like much. It suggests that you tell the world what you’re doing in 140 characters or less. So what? How are people using this social marketing tool to make more money online?
What You Need To Know: Follow and Be Followed!
The key to twitter is to follow and be followed. If you’re on the site talking about what you’re doing to nobody and not finding what anyone else is doing, it’s sort of useless and rather boring. Once you get a few followers and start following a person, that’s when the buzz starts. You can update your status on the web, via instant messaging client or via a third party tool like Twhirl that lets you use twitter from your own desktop. You can follow and be followed on your cell phone as well and be plugged in to the Twitterverse on the go.
You have a profile page that lets you manage the tool and lets people look you up to see what you’re all about in a few lines and with a URL. It’s the “What are you doing” section that counts.
Your Twitter friends or peeps (a.k.a your Tweeps) all carry on conversations with or without you and when you pop in and chime into various conversations, it gets rather lively. People ask questions, answer questions and share URLS of what they’re doing, what they find interesting and what they want opinions on.
There’s also the public timeline that tells you what other people are doing and you can search on that for more followers or conversations to eavesdrop on. It’s like a virtual water cooler that you can stop into during the day and check in with your tweeps.
Use Twitter when you:
– Post an update to your blog – Want answers to a technical question – Want to vent – Want to tell people what you’re having for lunch (seriously, that can sparks some very interesting questions) and more.
You can also send direct private messages as well as respond to people both directly but also publicly. The more interesting of a Tweet you post, the more likely people will follow you and re-tweet. A re-tweet is when you post a URL and someone likes it so they share it by tweeting or re-tweeting it to their followers. Do you see how it can become a benefit to you in an area like affiliate marketing, product launches and technical challenges you need help with?
You can also post Twitter feeds on your website so that people can follow you, read your conversations, see who you’re following and visit their posts or URLS so it becomes a very viral way to share and communicate and even to collaborate.
The downside to Twitter
Not only is the tool currently growing at such a fast rate that it goes down regularly but there is another downside and that’s productivity. Sadly there’s almost always a downside to social networking and bookmarking tools and as with many others, Twitter can be a time waster if you’re not careful so it’s important to use it and have fun but also to set limits for yourself.
Twitter is very popular in the social network scene online. If you have not joined the ranks of millions, then your missing out on some useful traffic to your site. I am going to show you step by step, how to set up twitter.
Head over to twitter.com and sign up for your free account. Its easy, just following along with this article. Fill in your name and create a user name. My username is: mentortodd and shows up in twitter like this:
twitter.com/mentortodd
If your using the Mentoring for Free marketing system its easy to track your results with any marketing campaign. Be sure to create your own page for twitter. It only takes a minute. Actually create two advertising campaigns. Label one Twitter Bio and the other Daily tweets.
Log in to your twitter account and click settings. make sure to fill out your name, email address and any empty boxes. It is pretty basic. When you get to the box more info URL be sure to put your link that you created in the back office of your mentoring for free system. Complete your Bio information. Do not check the box that protects your tweets. Click save.
Be sure to upload a picture of yourself and click save. Later you can customize your twitter desk top and tweak a few other things. A picture is worth a thousand words. If your treating your marketing like a business, then look professional. Uploading images or logo’s is not a good idea when your attempting to brand you. Remember this is only one of your social marketing places, but they all link together in some form or fashion.
Now you can safely add 25 followers to your account a day. After your logged into your account go to search.twitter.com Remember thought that you should take some time to read bio’s and click on links of others. Make sure that you are targeting the right niche. If not you will find a lot of people not following you back
Search anything that is related to your market. Take a few moments and read the bio of others and if you like add them as a follower. Remember if your looking for struggling network marketers, search companies. There are a ton of folks out there that mistakenly market their company first. We all know that 95% of these folks are struggling with generating leads for their business and we can provide free help for them.
Be sure to use twitter as you would any other tool. This is a business tool that is used in a social setting. If you come across as a spammer, your done. Tire kickers at best will add you as a follower or worse yet other spammers will hammer away.
