Detailed post is gone thanks to the try hard trying to trash the thread. I do not spend my time helping people for free only to be attacked by someone who does not understand simple instructions. Fact is this want to be guru is only trying to sell what is in his signature and has no clue about traffic generation at all. My techniques are proven to work not just for me but for others who use my techniques. They have been duplicated time and time again.

Once again WF moderators fail to keep spammers from trashing threads to spam there garbage.LEt's be honest we all see his signature. He is deliberately not trying to understand and trashing the thread because he is trying to make a buck. Moderators do not do nothing about it and I am not giving free info till they do.

    Nice passionate post. Thanks for taking the time out fella.

    Double agree on a good, catchy domain. More important battles than this.

IF they respond back follow them and thank them. Most likely they will follow you back as they just opened up dialog with you. Be careful and do not spam. Take it easy you have nothing but time.
    If you're going to criticize the large amount of "bad advice" out there, you could at least put out something that makes sense.

    People have to be already following you on Twitter in order to send them a direct message, so this method isn't even possible.

    And yeah, sending the same message to a bunch of different people isn't only extremely tedious, it's spam whatever way you look at it. If I see a link in a direct message I assume it's auto-sent, and unfollow the person that sent it.

    There are much more time-efficient, free, long-term strategies that are way more effective than this IMO.

      Really?
      You bore me.

      Those stats are from a site that was one month old. All traffic was from social networking. When it hit 2 months old it was hitting 10k visitors.

      I doubt you have ever had a site get anywhere near that.

      You can prove you have sure I will listen to you otherwise you are just someone trying to look smart who has failed.

      This is what I do. Your ignorance will not change that. So you can be grateful or ask for clarification on something you evidently are not understanding which the time for that has past. Either way I still make money. You still complain about what you do not understand and I still win.

      Yeah I wrote this in 4 in the morning so I may have not explained something right and you could have asked for clarification. Yet you want to complain. Does not matter because I know as you have already said that I do what you can not. I know there is only a few people out there that can generate the type of active awesome responsive traffic with huge fanbases that I can. So complain all you want. I will still be getting paid.

      I WAS feeling generous. So I thought I would share a PART of my winning strategy of traffic generation that has Game Studios coming to me asking me to train their staff. Part of a strategy that has people paying me thousands of dollars for advice and help. Part of a strategy that has helped me to create at a time the most visited gaming site on the net and later sale said gaming site for 6 figures all in about a year.

      I am no longer feeling generous.

    That's great. I'm very happy for you.

    ...Although I'm slightly concerned that you instantly jumped to defending yourself and attacking me rather than the message I posted.

    The basis of this method is something that is completely impossible to do. You can not direct message people who are not already following you. That's all I said.

    The rest can be summed up to "build a following" and "engage with your followers." Unfortunately, your idea of accomplishing this was doing something that isn't even possible on Twitter.

    You started out by saying that you dislike advice that wastes people's time. Wouldn't it suck if somebody followed this closely only to find out Twitter doesn't allow you to message people who aren't already following you?

    Sounds like a real time waster to me.
