Twitter is not about how many followers you have, but being found in keyword and relevant hash tag searches for what you promote. You need to do this daily 24/7 if you want the benefit of being noticed across many international time zones.
The best way to do this without annoying uninterested followers is to have a Twitter account with hardly any followers, and to loop hundreds of hash tagged messages daily. Twitter best practice, advises no more than 1000 messages a day, so there is plenty of scope to send out loads of Tweets daily. So the first step is to create a new Twitter Account, following a minimal amount of people.
I have found two pieces of software when used together with this new Twitter Account that can drive 100’s if not 1,000’s of visitors to your site every day.
Tweet Eye is the first.
The potential of sharing photos of your product on Twitter with such a large network of people searching for what you sell is huge, however Tweets appear at the top of Twitter searches for only a brief moment in time and are quickly replaced by others.
People on average only use Social Media 37 minutes a day. People login at different times of day and night from different time zones. Tweets are gone in a Blink. Frequently scheduling your photo tweets gives you more opportunity to be seen.
I discovered an application called Tweet Eye
http://tweet-eye.com/Tweet_My_Website.htm which is free and works great!
Tweet Eye instructions are available here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w25ILX_a4Lg, but I will add that you need to edit your URL to have it work properly. Remove the “s” from https and drop ?ref to end of the url for example:
ht tps://www.etsy.com/listing/179239353/1977-vintage-montmartre-girl-framed?ref=shop_home_feat_1
becomes
ht tp://www.etsy.com/listing/179239353/1977-vintage-montmartre-girl-framed
The second piece of software is Tweet Adder. Tweet Adder is the perfect tool (it costs $55 to associate one twitter account to your tweets), but you do need to set up your own Tweets or you can pay $5.00 to have them created for you (see below).
You can download this program using this link:
http://www.tweetadder.com/idevaffiliate/idevaffiliate.php?id=21233
There is a free trial for 7 days or 250 tweets, if you want to test it first.
The Twitter algorithms do not allow for duplicate Tweets, so any Tweets that you create and import into Tweet Adder must all be unique for Twitter to allow them to be Tweeted out and to give your business the maximum exposure. Which is why I would recommend that you purchase this gig on Fiverr to get the most benefit out of the software:
First join Fiverr if you have not already, then use this link to find the gig:
http://www.fiverr.com/cfabs2business/create-1000-unique-tweets-to-import-into-tweet-adder
You can loop those 1,000 tweets, if you limit your tweets in Tweet Adder to 300 per day (which is plenty with the photos tweets which are also running in Tweet Eye. Then you will have 3+ days of unique tweets before it loops back to the beginning.
The next step is to synchronize your tweets with Facebook pages, by using the #fb on the end of your Tweets (not all of them, random ones, lets not over do it, then visit
https://apps.facebook.com/selectivetwitter
and setup your account. Any time you tweet using #fb, it will automatically post to your Facebook page.
Once you have that setup, you can then create an rss feed for your facebook using
http://fbrss.com/. Once you have the rss feed you can go to
https://app.dlvr.it/ and add the new Facebook RSS and link it to the following social media accounts (you can use one or all):
Free Account:
Linked In Personal Page
Tumbler
StatusNet
Delicious
App.Net
Premium Account:
Google+
Linked In Business Page
StockTwits
So you can easily manage all of your social media accounts and automate posting so you can get back to creating/picking your new item!
