Monetize Twitter Round 1
Monetize Your Targeted Twitter Account Round 1.
Okay, so I introduced a tool that is for a free service that costs money. There must be some way to get that money back your thinking right? Well of course there is. This post is just an idea to get those creative juices flowing.
In order to have credibility, a high follower count, and keep it that way, you need to provide your followers with some assurance that you are not some spam bot, or provide them with some useful information, that will not even get them thinking that. First, of course is the icon, background, and profile. This is good for the initial follow request, but how do keep them as followers?
This example, I will be using twitterfeed.com. This can schedule auto tweets based on rss feeds, more importantly automated content for us to tweet to our accounts with. There are plenty of you with phpBay blogs, what if you followed users based on your phpBay niche, and put your RSS feed in twitterfeed? I already know the answer, free traffic.
I mentioned to keep them , you also need something to offer. Look for other RSS feeds, or your own blog on the subject, and auto tweet that. This will provide content on the niche, and hopefully keep them as a follower. Do not go overboard, the idea is to stay under the radar.
Also, put your twitter count and follow link on your website also, the more followers, the more your site will look authentic.
What if you don't have phpBay? EPN has RSS Feeds too

. This technique comes courtesy of Ian, and there are plenty more. I have one waiting for round 2.
