Software tools to automate Twitter marketing were being greatly promoted several ago. It was believed that you could use Twitter as an effective method to build a list of prospective buyers for your products or services. Cutting through the hype, just what kind of results can you anticipate after using these Twitter marketing tools? We are going to discuss Twitter marketing and whether or not it is worth your time and expense as part of your online marketing strategy.
I was one of those who was curious to determine if getting a big following on Twitter was going to help my product promotion efforts and so purchased the tools. I signed up for programs that promised to get me followers on Twitter and purchased software tools to help promote my products. By the time I'd finished, I'd invested in something like eight programs to perform some of the grunt work involved in Twitter marketing.
The first software I purchased allowed me to automatically follow people in the hopes that they would then reciprocate and follow me. Next there was the program that would un-follow people who were not following me. This would let me follow various people once again to get them to follow me. Some of the software I bought are not interesting enough to discuss but I will just mention a helpful program that auto-Tweeted any blog posts I made each time they were published.
I must say that the combined effect of employing all these programs together gave excellent results because each program did as advertised. Nonetheless, my exhilaration was quickly crushed when I realized that I wasn't generating any money. I would post to my blog 10 times every day and those blog entries would be shown directly on Twitter just like they ought to. Then I discovered a way to have all the blog entries done for me automatically, thinking that the more posts I would have the more Twitter users who would see them.
Okay, allow me to reveal to you my results. In three years, I was able to have a Twitter following of almost 10,000 individuals. You'd probably be very happy to gain that number of followers, but there's more to come. In the same 3 year period, my Twitter account collected more than 15,000 blog posts that had links to my affiliate offers.
My blog posts showing on Twitter was the only form of advertising for that blog I did and to test the effectiveness of Twitter I did not even ping new posts as they were published. Well I found, in the last 3 years I generated 2 affiliate sales for a total of $48, and I pulled in $8.52 with Adsense. And that particular blog only receives about 2 to 4 visitors a day from Twitter.
In a nutshell, having approximately ten thousand followers on Twitter using all these Twitter marketing tools will not give you the results you want. The bottom line is that the money I've made is not enough to cover the cost of the Twitter software I bought to start with. There might be other more successful means of marketing on Twitter, but from my experience, using automatic software tools is not one of them.
