subject: Twitter Traffic Tips - Doubling Your Twitter Traffic in A Snap [print this page] Twitter is fast becoming the preferred tool for companies and organizations to supply quick and easy updates to their customers. Registering an account for this service is free, so why not? How this works is, people who choose to follow a certain Twitter account called followers will see any updates that account posts. And theyre to the point too, with only 140 characters available for any single post. Aside from regular or scheduled updates, blatantly plugging your Twitter account is one way for you to increase your Twitter traffic. There are a number of widgets online that enables you to place badges (images or buttons as a link) on your website or blog. A simple click will allow your visitors to also become your followers. Another method that could help is by running a search using trends. On Twitter, trends are posts that have specific keywords. By clicking on particular trends, you will be shown all updates from other accounts that have posted within the same trend usually noted by adding the #symbol prior to a word or phrase. Following someone on Twitter will most likely get that person to follow you as well. At the least, it will rouse their curiosity enough to look at your profile. This is where your profile design comes into play. Make it interesting so people will feel compelled to follow you in turn. Having only 140 characters to express any one thing can prove a challenge. Try to phrase your updates in as interesting a way as you can. Use humor or wit, whatever you have in your arsenal. Tweets thats what Twitter calls these mini updates that incite laughter or thought could gain you more followers, if only for them to see other attention-grabbing Tweets you come up with. On a side note, in trying to increase the number of followers on Twitter, it is important to remember that you do NOT lose any of the ones you already have. Make sure that you post regularly. Any lull in updates might make your followers think that you are no longer active.
