Setting Up | Twitter Business Marketing

Pittsburgh Business Twitter & Personal Twitter Accounts

  1. Create a Personal Twitter that uses your desired keyword / keyword phrase.
  2. Create a Business Twitter with your company name or desired keyword / phrases.

* Make sure to use different email addresses per account or you will not accomplish this goal.

The next step is to click on the Settings link at the top of the page.

  1. Click the Notices tab and uncheck all of those notices for now. You don’t need them.
  2. Click on the Account tab and complete every single field. Make sure to add an image as this is essential in both attraction and social media marketing. Make sure to add your website link.
  3. Click on the Design tab. This is where you can play with the background colors – or – add a background image.
  4. Go to the links (top right of page) and click on Home.
  5. In the status box, make your first Tweet. It can be social or your marketing focus for the Twitter on either.
  6. Now, go to the link (top right of page) and click on Find Friends. Connect with (“follow”) others in Pittsburgh and by industry.
  7. Market your Twitter links all over the Internet. Integrate it with other social networks, blog, websites, etc.

Log in to your Twitter as frequently as time permits and communicate with your “followers”.

There is much more to Twitter Marketing and Pittsburgh Social Media Marketing, but the fact of the matter is that by just setting up those 2 Twitters and following that little bit of process, you will save money and put your company / website at such an advantage. The Twitters will virtually build themselves if you want to do this passively or you can become as aggressive as you would like by using Twitter Tools and developing business and social media marketing strategies. Combine this resource with Facebook and Myspace (at least), if done correctly, you should experience results from the start.

Social Networks That Pay & Blogging Communities

I think that Blogging Communities & Social Networks that pay are just as AMUSING as a first page Google rankings. Many are search engine friendly, easy to use and are filled with members that are eager to make money. I am always eager to participate in a new launch (fun fun fun) … this blog post explains why and which are the top networks that pay.

What is a social network that pays?
A social network or blogging community that pays is exactly what it states. It is a networking site that either pays money, points, prizes, advertising, etc to the members that use it. They often target niche markets.

How can they afford to pay members?

Most networks that pay cash depend heavily on advertising revenue to pay their members. Some use affiliate links and pay per ads. Others sell advertising to their members and / or companies that are outside of the network. They split the profits with the users based on their usage, referrals and other activities. Points have become a popular form of payment. There are even social networks that pay with the focus on helping the members become more knowledgeable on how to manage finances. Most that pay require a certain level of activity in the network.

What are the advantages of social networks that pay?

- Fantastic for recruiting job seekers and opportunists.
- Helps build lists that you can transition to other sites.
- Free advertising / exposure for your business.
- Easy to build a following / rapid online branding.
- Make money from the network and what you market.

What are the disadvantages?

If not properly launched and controlled, social networks that pay:

- Can become saturated with spammers.
- Have good intentions, though never fully launch.
- Disappear from the Internet or fizzle down.
- Some never end up paying cash earned.
- Many require a usage commitment.

Which are the top social networks that pay?

Sokule
Pronounced “so cool”, this social site that pays is making it’s “claim to fame” as being like Twitter though better … because it pays. This is really a fun environment with lots of advantages. Sokule does pay each month (even if just a few dollars earned) and to Paypal.com.

10 Ways To Increase Twitter Followers by Kevin Rose

  1. Retweeting – explain to your followers what Retweeting is and encourage them to retweet your links.
  2. Fill out your bio – @replies have no weight if people do not know who you are.
  3. Links to your Twitter – put links t your Twitter everywhere (Dogg, Linkedin, Facebook, Blog, etc)
  4. Tweet about your passions in life and #hash tag them.
  5. Bring your Twitter account into the physical world (business cards & offline marketing).
  6. Take pictures – Pictures are heavily retweeted.
  7. Start a contest – This will add 1000s of followers.
  8. Follow the top Twitter users and watch what they tweet.
  9. Reply to / get involved in # Hash Tag memes (Twitter trends is good).
  10. Track your results (Twitter Counter is a good resource).
