Day #4 Article marketing part 2: Use Twitter

Labels:

Last time we discussed that how Facebook and Digg(click here) can be used to get traffic to your article. Digg can fetch thousands of visitors if your submitted article makes to the front page of it. Else, even your meaningful comments to the article which make to the front page can fetch you good traffic. However, you may want to know more ways of getting traffic to your article.

In the following part we will discuss about other website which can bring you traffic.

Twitter: This micro blogging platform can bring you tons of loyal readers. I have seen writer posting their URL on twitter after writing article and getting thousands of visitors. How attractive you write in the 140 character limit of twitter will decide the number of visitors you will receive. If your article is good, people will retweet your article which means they submit your tweets in their tweets again. Wow more traffic. However, it is not that easy as it may look. We need to discuss twitter in detail. We will first understand how twitter works?

Twitter gives each user a space of 140 characters to write in one go (which are called tweets). In Twitter we have something called followers, anyone who like your tweets will follow you. Who is a follower? Follower is someone you can see all you tweets and you can see tweets of people you follow. Initially, follow people hoping that they may be followed. Before following anyone, see its follower to following ratio. If this ratio is high it means that he/she is a known face on twitter and not likely to follow you. Try to find people with fewer followers and start following them. You can unfollow those who don't follow you back. This can be done by using a service called twitter karma. This site will unfollow all those who didn't follow you back.

How to get traffic from twitter?

Don't expect that posting about your articles will gain you readers. It will never happen, contribute to community before expecting results. What I mean is you should post interesting blogs and article you have read. Once you have reputation of an informative tweeter, people will wait for your tweets. Hence reputation formation is an important step in gaining readers.
