Multiple Twitter accounts: good or bad idea?

[Success With Dany]

I recently rebooted my Twitter account and worked really well at it.

I have over 2300 followers without spamming in over 6 days, just targeting the right people and providing good content, so far 7 leads to my AR, not much, but I'm still quite proud of myself.

I checked another person in my group that has multiple Twitter accounts, he has 7 of them totaling around 50 000-55 000 followers, getting a lot of leads for him every day.

I was wondering if I should do like him and start new ones right away OR should I concentrate on getting a bit more followers on my sole account before doing that OR just keep on working on one account?

Warriors, let's discuss.

Any insight, anybody?

I think having multiple accounts is a good idea if:

>>> you have one twitter account set-up for business and one for pleasure
>>> you are marketing in multiple niches so your page will match your niche.

I can't really think of any other benefit for having multiple twitter accounts. If you're not careful you can find yourself getting sucked into twitter and before you know it hours have ticked by with zero productivity.

It might even be wise to focus on your main niche - maybe the one you would choose if you had a gun held to your head and you were told you had to drop them all but one!

To summarize Dany - keep it simple.

Well you didn't really give enough information for anyone to have any idea what's going on with your results. I think whether you want multiple accounts is largely related to what you're trying to accomplish. If your goal is some kind of branding or building a presence, you'd probably stick with one account. Or use one main account followed by some other smaller accounts. If you're using more direct marketing techniques, you'll definitely want multiples.

I create a twitter account every blog I have. I connect my blog with twitter. Every post in the blog will spread to twitter automatically by helping a plugin. I got more benefits with this technique in terms bring of the traffic. Try it for yourself!

That's fine - but I have hundreds of blogs, so I'd either need hundreds of Twitter accounts or a few accounts which would get a LOT of tweets to them
