    • I'm just getting started with Twitter, myself, but I think
      that at least part of it is that it forms a channel of
      communication, similar to email marketing.

      People, for a variety of reasons, choose to "follow you."
      This is analogous to them signing up for your newsletter.

      When you post a tweet (I think that's what it's called)
      to Twitter, the message goes out to all who are following
      you. No guarantee that they'll do anything with it. They
      may even choose to stop following you. But they get
      your message until they stop following (unsubscribe).

      So you can send out messages - like: I just uploaded
      my ebook hxxp://yoururlgoeshere.com
      ,and may
      well drive some traffic there.

      I guess that's very basic. I'm guessing there are advanced
      Twitter techniques (outsourcing, etc.) too.

      Regards,

  • Google search this

    Also - I am selling a website I built, and posted it as my "status" on facebook. Similar concept... I had several immediate responses.

    The trick to social networking is to build up relationships and only occasionally send out subtle marketing notes. Free reports or resources are good, with an occasional squeeze page.
  • Its hard I had great traffic from twitter one day and then none the next.
