How Does Twitter Make Money

How does twitter make money is a common question and one borntoloaf will try to answer based on our experience at twitter. Most of the twitter revenue seems to come from advertising from their top tweets which they send out to those who subscribe to this feed and from the top search results. Twitter remains free to users though and adverts usually have a colour highlighting that it is a promotion. Many top results and toptweets are those that are of current interest.

Earn From Twitter

You too can earn from twitter from advertising your own products in your tweets. Borntoloaf.co.uk would advise spending time reading other people's tweets and enjoying the twitter experience before diving straight in and advertising your products. Send general tweets out on a range of subjects and interests, some serious and some humorous. Perhaps tweet about what is in the news or give opinions about TV or films. Try to build up a core of followers and follow people whose tweets interest you. Most return the follow. Some people follow thousands of tweeters but in our opinion cannot possible read each of their tweets in turn and perhaps just follow people to get them in turn to read their messages. We would rather follow a smaller number of tweeters and enjoy reading their tweets. Twitter help you find followers with their suggested users' button that bases suggested followers on shared interests based on your tweets and people you follow.

After a few weeks now would be the time to start using this how to make money on twitter for free advice and try one or two tweets advertising your service, webpage or product. But please do not spam tweet or you will soon lose followers.

Make use of the hash tag # for keywords if you have any characters left after your message because this will help your tweet be indexed into their search engine more efficiently.

A retweet is where someone likes your message and sends it to his or her followers, so writing on a range of topics can result in your messages being sent to thousands of people who may in turn follow you or visit your profile. Many or the retweets I have read on twitter tend to be funny and or have amusing photos attached. So write an interesting profile and include your website, though I think hits from a twitter url is a no follow so may not help with search engine optimisation. However don't worry about SEO too much: twitter is supposed to be fun and the hit is still a real visitor who may enjoy reading your website, use your service, return, subscribe to your newsletter, recommend you to other tweeters, etc.

Reading the trending now section shows you what topics or themes fellow tweeters are interesting in as well as being a good news service.

The mentions sections at @mentions will show you if people are discussing you and your service on twitter and is a great way to get free feedback.

There are a few disadvantages to using twitter, the first being that it is very addictive and can be a distraction to your normal work. I love twitter and could spend hours on it to the detriment of my other work. Another disadvantage of twitter is that it allows spammers to contact you directly. I get round this by turning off the direct message facility and reporting spam messages that do get through. I then block that person's account. You can generally tell that a spammer is using twitter to send spam by clicking on their name, seeing their account and having a quick flick on their tweets. This is usually a large number, all of the same message to different users. Twitter soon closes these accounts when you report twitter spam. But please do not let these cons of twitter put you off: twitter is a great marketing tool when used correctly.

It is also possible to earn from twitter by signing up to a service that will use your account to send advertising messages to your followers. You then get a set fee. Borntoloaf do no use such services though will be happy to add their details here. The disadvantages of using such a service is that you would have to give out your twitter username and password so that the service can access your twitter account and that your followers may get fed up receiving advertising messages which they may think comes from you and unfollow you on twitter.

Make money using twitter is a fun way to make extra money alongside your usual or additional work. Follow the twitter etiquette and enjoy the experience and you will soon earn from twitter in many ways.
