Making Money With Twitter the Way it Should Be

So I have been going on many forums and people are giving the same old fashioned way of making money by making 100's of accounts and using automation and making money. I honestly don't know how many people are really successful because not many are.

It's literally spamming Twitter, I don't know how people expect to say that they are having crazy conversion rates because everyone who is following you currently is only following you the same reason you are following them to make money or gain followers they could care less about the products you are offering they just care about their follow counts and making money.
How you should use Twitter? You Should Treat your Twitter account the same way you treat your Email List. You are not going to spam the crap out of people are you? You should build and engage with your followers and interact with them.

Now you're wondering how you're going to make money because you interact with your followers they have trust and faith in you that you are not no spammer. Trust me one of the most things that people hate are spammers!
Here are some simple ways of making money

-Do you have a product launching or know a good product that you can make some commission out of again don't just promote crap just to make some quick bucks. Add your affiliate link tweet it and watch yourself get commissioned.

-Sponsored Tweets - People will literally pay you tons of money to just tweet out stuff from your Twitter account.

-You Can literally drive all this traffic to valuable content on your Blog? Squidoo? Youtube? Docstoc? Where these places allow you to generate money.

-There are so many different ways of making money have you ever thought of actually using Sponsored Tweets and promoting offers on other peoples Tweets? And Profiting from it?

Now how do you gain follower? It's not really that hard as if seems.

-Follow people that interest you.
-Follow people in your niche.
-Interact with people.
-You know the most powerful thing? Go on Search.Twitter.com and search for -questions being asked in your niche and ANSWER THEM! Great way to build a brand and reputation.
-Post Valuable Content use websites like Virl.com get Retweet's etc. by doing this.
- JUST DON'T BE BORING!

I know everyone has different views but I am just kind of confused how people think spamming on Twitter by making 100's of account and setting on automation is the way to go and make money. I honestly think making a single account is far more valuable you build a brand, you build trust, you make money etc.

I remember just a couple of months back following everyone and building followers was the way to go but then everyone started realizing its pointless so people unfollowed all their followings and only followed people who interest them etc. just look at @JohnChow , @JoelComm, @JohnReese, and so many more.

Your DM's were filled with Spam, it was just a headache and Twitter was just not fun no more it was full of spam.

Anyways it's like 1:30AM I am writing this. I am sorry if there any grammar or spelling errors I shall wake up in the morning and get stuff fixed. If you got any questions, or anything to input or add please do so.

Btw this is my first new Thread on Warrior Forums I believe Wohoo! And This FORUM ROCKS! If you want to Follow me, my Twitter link is in my signature =)

    Good advice,

    I only follow people who are writing their own tweets, not automating them.
    I always write my own tweets, even if it's a link to my blog, which I've just updated (which I've also written myself)
    They can follow me all they want, but they won't get a reciprocal follow from me.

    Personally I use this type of approach, however I've built 4 accounts in the niches I'm comfortable to talk about.
    I've never made automated tweets, but I use automated software to add followers from another users. If people are interested in following, for ex. Kim Kardashian, perhaps they are interested to follow me if I talk about fashion too.

      I've been using this technique for the past week. I'm at over 1000 followers now, and I haven't posted any offer yet.

      The OP took the words out of my mouth.

      "Treat it like an email list"

      Be sincere, be real, be informative. People will follow you for that. Post valid links to funny youtube videos, funny links, and tweet funny jokes. Let people know that when they click on that wierd little URL that you will be taking them to a site that they will find interesting.

      Build Trust.

        haha yep, it's quite funny how people don't realize how powerful there Twitter account could be if they don't spam and use it correctly. Dell did not increase there Revenue in millions by Spamming on Twitter they were using Twitter properly.

    It's funny how a large popularity of people are not aware of how important their twitter accounts are. Most people think by constant repeating tweets they are generating traffic, but little do they know they are just raising a lot of doubts out there. for people to follow them and Purchase their product.

    I agree totally. In Twitter you have to be personable and come across as a real human being, and all the automation tools in the world will not help you do that! For some reason, the prevailing belief is that these tools are what will you get you lots of followers and consequently sales, but nothing could be further from the truth. Witness all the crappy tools being sold, each one being touted as the next best Twitter mega tool, and this also accounts for all the spam and blatant automated Tweets you see being blasted all over the Twitter-verse! On the other hand, that leaves plenty of room for people like us who are using Twitter the right way, where we actually take the time to interact/socialize and develop real, rabid followers who we can monetize easily!
