Can You Make Money On Twitter?
So the question is, Can You Make Money On Twitter?
The short and simple answer is “Hell Yea!” you can make money on Twitter. When I say that I mean, you can make money “with” Twitter, because there is no direct way to get people to buy from you on twitter. However, twitter is a internet marketers dream when it comes to staying in touch with customers and displaying any specials that you may have to offer returning customers.
Just because you cannot sell directly on their site does not mean that you cannot use the simply awesome power of RSS and Followers to attract new people to your site and remind your current customers to come back.
Is it really better than email?
I feel bad that I actually have to answer that, but Yes! So far beyond email. When was the last time you wrote an email and it ended up on the front page of google? Well probably never, so yes twitter is a lot better than email.
Can I Use Twitter With Affiliate Programs?
Why yes, you can. Actually sending out your affiliate links is easier and more effective than on other sites, because all long addresses are shrunk using “tinyurl.” So actually it almost “cloaks” your affiliate ids for you and nobody knows if it is your link or the official link to the site, so really this is a untapped affiliate system, its free too, so come on in!
What about finding new leads with Twitter?
You will look long and hard before you find a better arena to locate and communicate with new leads. You can search users by keywords and then start following directly. You can also use many third party softwares to find and follow people in any niche you can imagine. So let the leads start rolling in, again, if you not tired of hearing it yet, ITS FREE!
Where My Rant On Twitter Money Started
I must admit, I read this blog post and it got my gears turning on the topic:
I wrote a comment on the blog, but I am sure that it will get wacked by the admin, because I don’t think he fully understands the power of using Twitter.
Here was my comment :

So, your suggesting that internet marketers and businesses don’t spend time on the fastest growing website on the planet?
There are plenty of folks out there who are making good money on twitter, I would not judge from your own experience. I think that it is a wonderful way to keep customers up to date with your business and let them know about new specials you may be running. I don’t think it is as powerful as, say, facebook, but man, if you are not going to be on twitter, thats like opening a brick and mortar business and saying “I am not going to put a sign out front”
Just my thoughts on the topic, don’t mean to offend.
