Josh,
It seems like Twitter is full of people marketing one thing or another. The idea that I have found so far to get enough followers is to be more social at first, gaining trust among your followers as somebody who is interesting and can provide valuable insights to a variety of issues. Once you become more established as more than just a continually pushy ad writer (boring!) you can slipping in a tweet or two with a link to your site or blog to draw followers in.

Twitter is one of the biggest sources for getting extremely relevant traffic because of its following theory. You would follow someone related to your niche and would someday visit their site which gets them relevant traffic.

So simply, your post says the truth and I use Twitter for getting relevant traffic related to my niche and they convert very well too.

Good post.
Regards

@ Tony Tester – If the tweet was a reply to someone elses tweet, you’ll see a link “in reply to…” beneath it. Click that and you’ll see the tweet that was replied to.

@ Greg – Its fun I’m sure there are… there are geocaches hidden all over the world! There are probably several within a mile or two of you!

@ REP – Thanks, greatly appreciated.

@ Chris – Thanks, I went to that post and noticed I had misspelled many other words too

@ Meirav – Of course you would want to open a new account for each niche.

@ Angie – Twitter is a networking tool, so if you stopped using it, it would not be every beneficial. Tweets are indexed in Google though.

Twitter takes very little time. It takes about 30 seconds to post a new tweek. Do that a couple times a day and the total time investment is 1 minute.

@ Judith – lol yep, they’re everywhere!

@ Charlie – I never suggested someone should use the same twitter account for multiple niches… of course you need a new account for each niche. It takes about 1 minute to create a new account, so not sure how that is an issue.

@ Amulekone – Just update your Twitter status a couple times a day and think of it as a networking tool.

@ Paul – ok, then don’t do it I’m not twisting your arm.

Bridget: Thanks for the info on Tweetdeck – that was a great tool. I also found I could set up a column for “Tweeters” that I really like. I now have one column for everyone that I follow that moves by very quickly (like snatching conversations at the airport on your way to a plane) and one that I can focus on more carefully (like hanging out with them at a coffee shop.)

Also, I discovered that changing my “@replies” option of the Settings|Notices tab to “all @replies” allows me to view more of someone’s conversation. That gave me a lot more insight into the conversation taking place with others for someone that I’m following. I got a few great article ideas that way.

– Tony

Please delete my comments from the above. I wonder why you left the comment but removed the backlink. I didn’t leave a spammy comment but took my time to read your post and leave a comment, so why did you remove my backlink? Please delete the entire post if you won’t leave the backlink.

It seems a lot of people agree with this. I may as well give it a try twitter.
