The Power of Social Media

Recently within the last couple of weeks ive been getting more into the social media side to see if i can optimize a social media account to drive more traffic to my website.

I think it was around a month a go that i logged into my twitter account for the first time in about a couple of months or so to find literally only 10 people following me. If any of you have seen or remember i did upload a post of goals that i want to achieve in 2017. One being get to 500 followers. Well now i have achived my goal with 11 months to spare lol by quite a lot, with my account having just over 3'300 twitter followers.

When i use to share stuff on twitter i use to get hardly any interactions or clicks on any of the stuff i posted. Ive recently been experimenting with various twitter programs and services to boost my following.

I started off with Crowdfire which helped me gain a few followers and get my twitter account up and running. I did purchase the premium of it which im not sure if it was the best descion as recently ive found a much better app.

A fellow member Lynnehuy recommended a software for social media that you can download on your computer to help manage your social accounts. Its called Massplanner. One of the main faetures i like to is not only does it help you to manage your following on twitter but it also scedules posts to publish on your social media.

I was having play with it on the 14th and sceduled various posts including one post with the Wealthy affiliate invite link. The most amount of clicks i get from the WA link on my site is only a few buts that expected as my sites only in its 4th month.

These are my stats for the past 7 days from sharing my WA link on twitter. This is apart from the 14th and 15th where i hadnt shared my link.

Suprisingly ive had quite a bit of interest but no WA referrals as of yet. But already i can see from those stats that Twitter is quite a handy tool to use!
