Tools Of The Trade

Some of you especially you older members are getting impatient how I am earning income from Twitter regularly, so my next few tutorials will help you all understand since you all should now have a basic understanding how Twitter works.

How I Know What Programs To Post

Would you join a program with affiliate programs, a generating tool to create non-affiliate links, and a dashboard that shows you exactly how many clicks and sales you are receiving from each affiliate program you are tweeting on Twitter? Well, there is such a program that exists and since I started using this program by the fourth month I started seeing payments going directly into my PayPal account. Even better I have not seen one month without earning income using this program, but it does get even better my income just keeps gradually growing every month simply because I know what the folks on Twitter is interested in buying. This program can also be used for Facebook and your website, and any other places you post your links, and one more thing this program will do for you is insert affiliate links into your blog posts automatically for you. I know you are thinking this program sounds too good to be true, but I swear you can trust me since using this tool my income has dramatically improved. By the way, you can join this program absolutely free.

How To Become Known As An Authority In Your Niche

This strategy will convince the people on Twitter to trust that you are a reputable business and an authority in your niche, so this is another strategy that has worked wonders for me on Twitter and a day don't go by I don't have more followers. This strategy does take some time to work, but if you can spend a little time each day doing this it will work the same for you as it is for me. Now I usually only use this strategy once or twice per week, but when I started using this I took about an hour per day until I had the trust in the people who hang out and buy on Twitter.

How I Choose My Hashtags

The first thing I do when I go on Twitter is check what hashtags are trending, and I choose my hashtags from those that are what people are interested in. I usually go on Twitter three times per day, I tweet three-five tweets each time and spend the rest of the time thanking people for retweeting, liking, and following me. You should be seeing that I am doing more networking than actually tweeting my own business, and I usually make Thursday my day to tweet free resources. The majority of my tweets are informational tweets, but I do sneak in some products and services from time to time. You will find people will check out more of your tweets that are going to take them to your website for information, so that is the strategy I have been using for years that is working very well for me.

Traffic But No Sales

With the program I shared above you can cut down on the most common problem people experience, and that is getting traffic from Twitter but very few sales. When you know what the majority of people are interested in you know which programs to tweet and which ones to save for another business page. I just love this program because there is no guessing on your part what people are clicking on and what type of products and services they are interested in buying. It is a fact people don't want to feel they are being pushed into buying something they might not really want, so by avoiding selling and sharing information you are going to see more traffic. Most of you are not going to like this, but the majority of people go on blogs for researching or to solve their problems. The sales most bloggers receive are impulse buyers, if you did an awesome job convincing them you can make some sales. Most people who are shopping to buy will be looking for online stores, so adding an online store will increase your sales especially when you insert your store link in your blog posts.

Mentioning Other Pages

By thanking some pages that are supporting you and mentioning them using the @symbol before their page name is a powerful strategy, so I recommend you just try doing more of this and see how much this changes your experience on Twitter. Retweeting the pages that support you day in and day out is how I keep my tweets alive on Twitter for days and sometimes even a week, I do try to support the pages that support me as often as I can.

Always Keep Your Eyes Open

I don't follow just any page nowadays like I did when I first started on Twitter, but if someone follows me and I don't want to follow them back I am sure to thank them and mention their page name. I will usually do at least one search or explore every day for new pages in my niche to make friends with, I won't follow them right away I will start out just liking their tweets and see if they start following me. You always want to keep your eyes open for pages with extremely high amount of followers, and even if they are not in your niche they are worth following. You want to try to keep adding new pages to your network at least weekly, and this keeps your page fresh with new pages and interesting to your followers.

Pages With The Most Followers

Other than the big name merchants on Twitter most of the pages with a high number of followers are tweeting more informational tweets and fewer products and services, you can learn so much simply be observing the pages that are the most successful on any of your business page sites. You will find you are going to start having other pages following you pretty much everyday once you become established, but your best strategy which most new business owners and bloggers don't do is to support other pages more than they are tweeting their own business.

Still Experiencing High Traffic Very Few Sales

If you start using my strategies and you still are experiencing lots of traffic but very few sales it is time to make some changes to your website, and this can the most challenging if people just are not interested in what you are promoting on your website. This will be another tutorial in the future, but for now let's work on getting you traffic and established on Twitter.

Next Tutorial

The next tutorial I am going to share in more detail how to use Vig Links / Sovrn//Commerce and Quora to start getting more sales from your business page on Twitter, so you older members might want to be sure to watch for my next tutorial if either of these strategies interests you to add to your Twitter business plan.
