Hot Insider Twit Tips For Success

Many people have profited from twitter because of these simple practices…

Here are some of the best practices for building out a long-term, high-payout twitter account.

Check them out below:

1. How many tweets? The biggest question we hear is “how many times should I tweet each day?” Here’s the answer: post two tweets a day.

2. Mix it up. One of those two tweets should be a helpful link for your particular audience, as opposed to a sales link. You want to provide real value to your followers, not just ads.

3. Space it out. Have a few hours between your tweet posts. Do one in the morning and one at night. If you have trouble setting aside time twice a day, try using a tool such as SocialOomph (you will have to register for a free account) to schedule your tweets and have them sent when you’re asleep or doing something else.

4. Make it pretty. Use a link shortening tool to help hide the fact that it’s an affiliate link. In Affiliate Classroom, we provide a tool that not only shortens your links, but also tracks the clicks to your links.

5. Link to your own blog. Have some of your helpful links point to your blog posts. Post blog entries that are helpful to people or give them value in other ways. Getting your Twitter followers onto your site deepens the relationship you have with them and builds your readership.

6. Be fun. Link to funny stuff in some of your tweets. People love a laugh, and you want your readers to consider you a real person, not an information machine. You may want to stick to your niche (if you have built a niche following) so that you can have “inside” jokes that are more likely to get laughs from your readers.

7. Be a hot source of ideas. Take note of interesting sites you come across. In a typical day, you probably find many more compelling or helpful sites and tools than you expect, and if you have a targeted following, you can help them out by sharing.

8. Research it. To find valuable links, simply research topics that are of interest to you or your followers.

9. Be a “watcher” and re-tweet (RT). Follow the best Twitter accounts in your niche. How to get started: There are sites that provide a list of popular people who you should follow. You can also use Twitter Search to find the most frequent and popular tweeters on your niche. When they tweet something interesting, re-tweet it to share it with your followers.

10. Stir it up. Ask open-ended questions to draw out responses from your followers. This will result in other users replying to you, and in doing so, they are using your Twitter ID in their responses. That means that your ID appears on their feed and all of their followers can click to learn about you and begin following you. This approach is key to “snowball” growth of your followers.

11. …And shake it up. Ask controversial questions in your tweets. Ask people to give their opinion on an issue. In this way, you are interacting with others. Your followers will like to see that you are not just putting on a sales front but are engaging and there to help. They’ll also be more likely to recommend you to their followers – again, growing your base of followers.

Top 10 Hot twitter tips

Here’s some cool tips on getting more followers for your twitter that I found on the net. Pretty cool stuff. hope ya’ll like it and implemented…

1)Follow users with their own picuture, as individual people follow you back more often than companies.  Don’t follow logos or people who haven’t even bothered to upload an image.

2) Add a follow me twitter badge at the end of each   blog post.  When I started doing this, I immediately started getting 50-100 new followers every day.

3) Add a ‘retweet’ button at the end of each post.

4) Follow users who have a low follow to follower ratio, close to 1:1, as there is a much higher chance they will follow you back.

5) Keep your own follower ratio close to 1:1 as well.  A lot of users look at your profile first and don’t follow people that they don’t think will follow back.  If you have 1000 followers and only follow 50 people back, you will turn off a lot of potential new followers.

6) Follow people during Monday to Friday 9-5 when people tend to be on twitter more. (In your local area, and if you are following users from your area)

7) Avoid insignificant tweets like, ‘LOL’ and ‘Thanks’. That is fastest way to lose followers.  Use quitter to keep track of what updates cause you to lose the most followers and try not to repeat it.  Bottom line is try to ‘add value’ to the conversations instead of adding to the noise.   When responding to someone try to repeat part of the original conversation, so other can understand what  you’re talking about.
Example: Instead of just saying ‘thanks’, you could say, ‘thanks, bit.ly looks like a cool tool, I’ll be sure to check it out’

8) Try to get Re-tweeted.The more times you are re-tweeted, the more your username shows up on other users updates, which will get you more followers.  Have a look at what others are Re-tweeting and tweet similar stuff, or simply RT the RT stuff.  Check out 15 ways to get Retweeted

9) The the most obvious way to get more followers…Follow more people. Around 50% will follow you back even if your tweets suck. So if you follow 1000, 500 should follow you back with 1-2 days.

10) And if these free methods don’t work fast enough for you, try one of the automated following tools out there like, Twitter Traffic Exposed ($47)or HummingBird ($197).  (Reviews of these products coming soon…)
