How To Use Twitter Search For Blog Promotion And Affiliate Sales

By Mert Erkal in Microblogging

Twitter search

Twitter has become very popular nowadays. After reading Twitter Has A Big Month, Grows To Over 8 Million U.S. Users I am convinced that it will become even more popular by the end of this year. A few days ago Josh Spaulding has written a great article titled Using Twitter Search to find Buyers in the ACT! and stressed the importance of Twitter Search when trying to find potential buyers.

According to Josh if you type “I’m buying“,“thinking about buying“, or “will be buying”phrases into Twitter Search, you will find potential buyers. Even though it is not as easy as Josh said, I agree in some degree.  You need to brainstorm and find a workable way to get in touch with potential buyers via Twitter Search.

Today I would like to introduce some useful Twitter tools you can use to make affiliate sales, blog promotion, and find potential buyers.

TweetGrid: With this excellent tool you can create a Twitter Search dashboard that is updated in real time. This tool is very handy when you are looking for specific and keyword oriented tweets. You may watch the video tutorials for more information.

Mr. Tweet: If you want to expand your Twitter network, maybe all you need is an online personal networking agent.  Mr. Tweet will help you promote yourself, and your blog.

By the way, do not forget to follow me on Twitter. I am not tweeting about what I ate this morning, or which movie I am going to watch tonight. My tweets are always to the point, and related with blogging and making money with blogs.

Make money on Twitter? If you have found a way don’t forget to share with us. I am so addicted to Twitter and Twitter is not only popular in the US but also in my country – Malaysia. I am using Twitter Search to find new opportunities such as freelance writing jobs and so on.

Twitterville rocks! :) BTW, I had trird Magpie for monetisation but it didn’t work. One other problem was my followers didn’t like the repeated tweets very much. SOme 4-5 people even unfollowed me at the time! :( So, I had to remove it! I don’t care about monetising my Twitter account anymore! I am glad I am on Twitter! That’s what matters! :)
