1. 10 Tips To Monetize Your Twitter Page

2. How do you make money from
running a Twitter page for your
business? That’s the question we look
at in detail today. Twitter is not as
simple to figure out as social sites like
Facebook and LinkedIn, but it can be a
highly lucrative platform for your
business. Implement some of these
ten tips to monetize your Twitter page.

3. #1: Use Your Background Space

4. Get a custom design created for your
Twitter page that promotes your other
pages, business or products that you
sell. This space is free to use, so use it!
Marketers that have great background
info go on to get more clicks, follows
and sales.

5. #2: Tweet About Trends

6. You want to get more followers on
your page, so keep up with the daily
trends – and include them in your
tweets. Tweeting trending topics is a
great way to source new followers,
and drive more traffic to your
websites.

7. #3: Use Links!

8. Tweets that contain links are
retweeted more often than tweets
that don’t. If you want a tweet to go
viral, or to syndicate properly – say it
with a link. Just use your tweet space
to promote the link, instead of trying
to cram a story in 140 characters.

9. #4: Add Photos

10. People love to see that who they’re
interacting with on Twitter – are real.
Add unique photos to your Twitter
feed that promote your business. The
key is to keep these photos unique to
your Twitter page, so don’t syndicate
them anywhere else.

11. #5: Blog Product Punts

12. Punting a product gets very little
response on Twitter, unless you’re a
corporate giant with an excellent deal.
Instead, shape a blog post around your
product, and promote the post.
Include great info, and make it relevant
for more clicks.

13. #6: Free Offers

14. If you’re giving something away on
Twitter, you need to find an interesting
way to offer it to your community. A
lot of ‘free’ things are given away on
this platform that end up being spam,
or worse. Include a link and a friendly,
witty comment.

15. #7: Real World Promotion

16. If your business exists in the real
world, you need to let your customers
know that you’re on Twitter. Instead of
running an online Twitter promo, do
one in real life – where a client gets
the prize. Post the results and photos
on Twitter!

17. #8: Help Other Sellers

18. Retweet the links and product
placements of other Twitter users,
then shoot them a message to say that
you’ve helped them. Do this often
enough, and you’ll build an army of
people that are always willing to
retweet your posts.

19. #9: Advertise on Twitter

20. Take advantage of Twitters sponsored
tweets, or become a promoted
business. Really, this is the only sure-
fire way to build a large following in no
time on the platform. If your
community is a little thin, start here.

21. #10: Tweet on Facebook

22. Add your Twitter stream to your
Facebook page. It will help filter some
Facebook fans over to the
microblogging platform. You could also
run Twitter promotions on your
Facebook page, and drive new traffic
there that way.
