Twitter And Its Benefits

Twitter uses the basic what are you doing now? information sharing forum, not unlike the one that Facebook uses, as the main heart of their website. The main focus of Twitter is to share what youre doing at that exact moment along with pictures and links etc.

Twitter is essentially, a massive database of people whore all interested in different topics. If you tweet about a particular topic on a regular basis, then others whore interested in that topic, and like what you write will follow you. Your words can then influences their thoughts on that topic and over time youll build up a large following which can be converted into business leads for your company.

So how exactly does Twitter work?

Step one is to set up your own free Twitter account, you can see an example of an account at twitter.com/Deeho

I would suggest trying to get a username that is related to your subject matter as it will be easier for people interested in your topic to find you.

You will then need to add some more information to your account such as some personal details, your website address and a small biography. This biography is searchable within Twitter so you should make it keyword rich in order for people to find you.

The process of tweeting is so simple it needs no explanation. You simply have 140 characters to write your tweet about what youre doing now or whats on your mind.

You can make a comment, or as most people do, you can use the 140 characters as a compelling headline with a link to your website or blog, where your Story is written in more detail. This is how most people use Twitter, to drive traffic to their main site, or to a recent news story they have written.

This is using Twitter in its simplest form. Twitterfeed.com can be used to automatically post every blog entry you make in your normal blog onto your Twitter page in minutes.

Alternatively, you can use http://bit.ly/ as most Tweeters do, to not only shorten your blog url, but also to automatically post your Tweet at the same time. This saves you having to copy and paste into Twitter.
