Using Twitter Connections

February 29, 2012 By Leave a Comment

When you really want to optimize Twitter you need to make the most of Twitter connections. What is a Twitter connection? Well, it’s not targeting followers though that is important. And it’s not sharing Twitter love via RT’s and/or #FollowFriday though equally critical to successful ventures on Twitter.

No, Twitter has now become some type of dating service though you can certainly meet some twitterific tweepers on Twitter. The other day I logged on to Twitter direct, which is something, I rarely ever do these days, but I was looking for an answer to someone’s Yahoo Answer question. It was necessary for me to select “settings” from the top menu to do so. It was then that I found it. A tab labeled “connections” that I hadn’t personally seen before. Not sure how long it has been there, but when I looked at what it contained I was quite aware of why I don’t use Twitter direct on a regular basis.

It’s because of this tab. Well, not the tab, but the contents of the tab. See, it lists all the third party applications I allow to access my Twitter account.

Trying to use Twitter without these application is like trying to drive a car without a steering wheel. If I were me, I would connect to the following services without question. Wait! I – ME – weird… Anyway, let me proceed.

Twitter Grader: Fantastic way of finding out who’s who and where. (Just the facts)
TwitWall: Say goodbye to the 140 character limit of Twitter. (simply Twitterific)
Twitter Karma: Stops people from not following back with a simple click (buh byeee).

Those 3 tools mean so much to my own personal Twitter success. I also like TwitterFeed as it allows me to gain more mileage out of my work.

Though, I’m betting not everyone has a blog, website & Twitter profile though to use this utility that is not required. Another fun one to consider is Fun140 that has a bunch of free fun quizzes and games to share with others. Though sticking with the first three Twitter connections will bring you many miles down the road of social networking success on Twitter. How do I know? Easy. That’s what it did for me.

Twitter fuer Anfaenger

Eine Einfuehrung, was Twitter ist, was man machen kann und wie man es bedient.

http://twitter.com bringt Sie zur Startseite in deutscher Sprache.

Direkt auf der Startseite sehen Sie den Button JETZT ANFANGEN. Ein Klick bringt Sie auf die Seite, wo Sie Ihr persoenliches Konto einrichten koennen. Geben Sie Ihren vollen Namen ein und suchen Sie sich einen Benutzernamen aus, der auf Twitter noch nicht existiert (wird automatisch angezeigt). Dann brauchen Sie sich nur noch ein Passwort auszudenken und einzugeben sowie eine gueltige Email Adresse und schon koennen Sie den Vorgang abschliessen, indem Sie auf MEIN KONTO ERSTELLEN klicken.

Von nun an koennen Sie sich stets mit Ihrem Benutzernamen oder Ihrer Email Adresse und Ihrem Passwort bei Twitter einloggen.

Auf der rechten Seite sehen Sie oben eine Angabe ueber FOLLOWING und FOLLOWERS.
FOLLOWING zeigt an, wie vielen Twitter MItgliedern Sie sich angeschlossen haben.
FOLLOWERS zeigt an, wie viele Twitter Mitglieder sich Ihnen angeschlossen haben.
Es ist also eine Wer-folgt-wem-UEbersicht.

Wem nuetzen FOLLOWERS?

Ganz einfach: Jedes Mal, wenn Sie etwas schreiben, koennen die Mitglieder, die Ihnen folgen das sehen und lesen und kommentieren. Ebenso erhalten Sie Nachricht, wenn eines der Mitglieder, dem Sie folgen etwas veroeffentlicht.

Was koennen Sie schreiben?

Im obersten Feld, das mit TWEET beschriftet ist, sehen Sie rechts die Zahl 140. Das heisst, dass Sie dort eine Nachricht von 140 Buchstaben schreiben koennen. Durch Klicken des TWEET Feldes wird diese Message auf Ihrer Twitter Seite veroeffentlicht und andere koennen sie lesen, bzw. werden automatisch informiert, wenn Sie zu Ihren Followers gehoeren.

Ganz oben rechts in einer weissen Leiste befindet sich ein allgemeines Menu, das sie zurueck zur Startseite bringt, oder wo Sie Ihr Profil bearbeiten koennen, oder worueber Sie Leute suchen koennen usw.

Ihr persoenliches Menu befindet sich rechts und ist blau unterlegt. Dort erscheinen Direktnachrichten, die Sie bekommen haben, Ihre Favoritenliste (sofern Sie eine fuehren moechten), und Ihre Retweets. Dort befindet sich auch eine Liste der zur Zeit beliebtesten Tweets sowie ein RSS Feed mit dem man Ihre Eintraege auf seiner Webseite veroeffentlichen kann.

Wenn Sie nach Beitraegen zu einem bestimmten Thema suchen, benutzen Sie die Suchefunktion. Weisses Feld rechts. Geben Sie Ihren Suchbegriff ein und klicken Sie auf die Lupe. Und schon bekommen Sie eine Auflistung, wer was zu welchem Zeitpunkt zu diesem Thema geschrieben hat. Dort koennen Sie auch zu jedem Eintrag einen Kommentar abgeben, indem Sie auf ANTWORTEN klicken.

Twitter App – Retweet It

February 25, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Retweeting is one of the best ways to share content on Twitter.  As we mentioned in our article “Guide To Retweeting On Twitter“.  There are dozens of new tools to help you share Tweets in this way. Some are better than other and after actually using a few I’ve decided to share my thoughts on one in perticular.

A new service, reTweet.it, aims to create an exchange for retweets. Every time you retweet two tweets from users of the site, you get one RT in exchange. The other option is to purchase retweet credits.

Getting retweets on Twitter can be a great way to get your message out.

The problem arises when trying to get a lot of people within your targeted niche to retweet your message quickly. For a small fee you can get anywhere from 35 to 200 retweets at a time. Other users of the site will see your message and if they like it they will retweet it to their followers, thus increasing your marketing footprint.

Retweeting is about sharing content because it’s interesting and a users followers will get value out of it. The traffic and exposure goes further than just the retweets. If you purchase, your message will be introduced to every one of those users followers. There is a 50 follower minimum for all reTweet.it users, so your link has the potential to be seen by tons of people on Twitter.

Some of my Followers have over 20,000 Followers. Imagine if your message received 20,000 Retweets!

The Death of Twitter

February 23, 2012 By Leave a Comment

A Twitter here and a twitter there. If you spend ten minutes online, you are sure to find some mention of Twitter. It has found its way into newsrooms and comedy routines as well as your inbox. Twitter is growing and FAST.

With all of the hype around Twitter, there are some who claim that it will soon be gone or rendered useless. They site several reasons, including the fact that Twittter has yet to monetize itself and that it will simply be forgotten about once the hype goes away.

Let’s remember that the same has been said about almost every successful website at one time or another. Ebay, MySpace and Facebook were deemed “fads” by critics upon their early success. MySpace arguably was the only real fad of the bunch. But was it really a fad? MySpace was very popular for a very long time and still has many active users.

So, with all of this unchecked growth and no real business model, one could easily deduct that Twitter is doomed to fail.

If you fell this way, you are not alone. Many speculate that Twitter will fail.

Here’s a newsflash: Twitter is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Sure, Twitter is making its developers no money at this point. We need to remember that many great websites started this way. When you first launch a new website or idea, potential advertisers could care less about you. But they soon change their tune once you have thousands or tens of thousands of visitors per day. Suddenly, you have advertisers knocking down your door begging to advertise on your website.

At this point in the game, Twitter surely has their choice of advertisers. I wouldn’t doubt that Yahoo, Microsoft and even Google have contacted Twitter with ideas to monetize the site.

The ball is in Twitter’s court, and if you ask me they are doing everything right. Instead of jumping on the first business model that is thrown their way, they are sitting back and letting the big boys compete over them.

Most of us understand the way a capitalist society works. Supply and demand play a large role in the regulation of prices in the open market. Twitter is in high demand and their is a short supply of it (they have a Twitter monopoly at the moment). This means advertisers are willing to pay obscene amounts of revenue to bid out other competitors.

In a recent interviews, Biz Stone has explained that Twitter is currently considering various monetization schemes. It would be a safe bet that we’ll soon see such a plan in action.

You are missing the bandwagon if you are involved with any type of affiliate marketing or selling anything on line and not using Twitter.

There is a great tool that will help you make the most of Twitter. Read more…
