Why I Use Twitter

Posted on 18 February 2009   

Yesterday I talked about Joel Comm’s new book Twitter Power. I also discussed my uses of Twitter and that I would follow up with more of a detailed explanation today. For your viewing pleasure I put together a video about just that and don’t tell anyone but, I spilled the beans about how much money I generate from this blog.

One thing I forgot to mention was following your brand. Make sure you use the same name as your blog/site and create a background to mimic it as well. You will notice my background on Twitter showcases my logo and newsletter giveaway of a $25 gift card. Bottom line is the more you put something in front of a potential reader or client the more likely they are to trust that brand and visit the site.

    Nice video Patrick – well done! Although we’ve been online mates for a couple of months, we’ve never really hooked up on Twitter, so I’ll look out for you on there and say hello.
    Cheers

  2. Hey Patrick…

    Great vid…a few ?S

    Have you done any great customization on your site …I”d love to shoot you a commission and get a few woo themes…how easy is it to plug in the 125x boxes?

    We should talk, I’m working on another site of mine along similar lines…and how is that Twitter program working out? I was interested in that, and forgot to follow up..

    Anyway, great stuff, and looking forward to more connection…

    I”m doing a local speech on Social Media for my local Business Chamber in May, I’ll report back…

    Reconsider Facebook, and more other platforms… there is ping.fm that posts up everywhere you are, more awareness, more traffic, more $

    Love to chat “offline” via email?

    Peace, Chef Tony (actually a Chef…and online marketer :)
    btw…need to chat about Tats too…launching a site on that too.

    Nice video Patrick and I started following you on both twitter (passively through rss feed) and your rss on blog. Good weekend.
