I’m Using Twitter - I Almost Forgot

Written by Abdulrehman on June 9th, 2009

I joined Twitter around a week ago. Although I was in strong belief that Twitter was a wastage of time  but still after reading several reports from internet marketers I wa convinced to join it (kind of). So I went on, added my picture, biography, website link.

I found it hard to tweet at first and I still do. Usually, I don’t have something very special going that I’d want to tweet about. So, I decided to go on the hunt to get some good followers. I followed around 300 people and got 230 people following me back which is not bad at all.

After this comes the important part. Was Twitter useful? The only important post that came in between was the last one about Bing. It got tweeted by me and Re-tweeted by two other people. Overall, I got around 50 visitors from Twitter thanks to that. So, this means that Twitter is in fact a great tool.

I was thinking of doing this post a while ago but just forgot about it because I know that many of my blogs readers would be Twitter-ers. So if you use Twitter, you can check my twitter page and follow me and I’ll follow you back. Soon I’ll put up a link to Twitter on the header of this blog. How were your results with Twitter?

    You should have a moderate following plus a few people to retweet it. For me, that was the key for getting those hits!

    Yea I know that I don’t have a retweet plugin. I just tweeted this when I wrote the post “RT @3arn [post name] [post url]“. after that a few of my friends liked the post and the retweeted the same thing that I tweeted. If I had the retweet button on my blog I might’ve gotten more tweets!

    Twitter is a good way of getting traffic, but it was not designed for web promotion to make it work for you you have to put a lot of efforts such as getting followers that are really interested in your topic and make friends who can help you to retwit.
    Some time ago twitter put a limit for number of people you can follow which made things even harder but when you create a network it really works.

    Twitter can be frustrating at times. I can ask a question and never get any response from the 2k plus followers that I have. or I can follow folks and then they over load my Direct Message box with auto reply thank you notes. But Twitter is a good place to simply type what you are doing. As far as networking I have not seen its benfit as of yet.

    True on that one, direct messages are a real pain in the neck. That’s why I stopped checking them, once i received 10 thanks you messages from a person seperated by commas which indicates that he chose to rotate 10 comments around to keep it fresh, :lol:
