Default Can Twitter Really Generate Good Traffic Flow?

Hi,

I am here just to pass on some information that I have found out as a reult of using Twitter. I signed up with Twitter because someone told me I could generate targeted Traffic from the site. Just like many other programs that supposed to get you traffic I just knew there had to be a catch to it.

Much to my suprise I found that is done properly with a little automation I could actaully get very targeted traffic to my site(s) via Twitter. So the answer is ABSOLUTELY you can generate a good traffic flow from Twitter. Since I started using it with a help of a couple tools I have seen a steady increase in the traffic to my site and not only that I have seen a increase in the number of sign ups to my primary program as well.

That's great. We are about to start Twittering also. I've always cast it aside as lame, to be honest, but if it works it works

Twitter has to be done in a certain way to monetize it. There are some good free training out there for it as well. Because of this thread I think I will post some links in my blog. Thanks for sharing that here I see now people really so want to use the tool right not just for a quick million.... lol

I find that you need to have a combination of regular tweets that show you are a real person and not an automated tweet, tweets to free information and tweets with links to your site to get good traffic. If you treat it like a business and try to build relationships with your customers (followers) you will get better and more traffic than if you are just trying to sell stuff to your followers

Twitter is definitely a great source of targeted traffic and can mean a nice chunk of change as well. Each time I think of "tweeting done right", TwitterLit always comes to mind. (They choose a book and tweet the first sentence with a link to the Amazon page.) The creativity is astounding and inspiring. They've been featured in many prominent magazines and on many prominent websites.

If you apply a bit of creativity to your tweeting, the sky's the limit.

Realy good feedback and very true about treating it like a business to build a relationship with your followers. Here is the trick getting people to follow you in the first place. Once you have enough people following you then I totally agree with you stirls it will work great and the sky is the limmit. I also love the idea that your provide Teli, using Amozon to generate income from Twitter and the idea of choosing a book and placing the first sentence in your tweet with a link back to the book on Amazon AWESOME! I will have to check into that in more detail. Well thank you again for your feedback I am sure others who visit this post will appreciate the info as I do.

For a system to be a system you have to induce a second and third sale, which is a very profitable posture ..

Relationship is key to create a thing I have discovered called "Forced Leverage"

Ray,

Would you care to elaborate on what Forced Leverage is all about? This seems to be a good idea and sound interesting to me. I am sure others might benefit from your knowledge on the subject as well.
