I'm a new Affiliate Marketer with seven (!) blogs and hosting with several sub-domains and zero content. I am overloaded by all the maintenance required in setting up websites, landing pages, PPC keyword research, and general distractions related to email and twitter preventing my online marketing success. If you get a chance, please follow me back and I can 'DM' my email address to you for a bit of consulting?

I have just begun following you on Twitter. I’m a new Affiliate Marketer with seven (!) blogs and hosting with several sub-domains and zero content.

I am overloaded by all the maintenance required in setting up websites, landing pages, PPC keyword research, and general distractions related to email and twitter preventing my online marketing success.

If you get a chance, please follow me back and I can ‘DM’ my email address to you for a bit of consulting? (www.twitter.com/nachase)

Yes, you can follow hundreds of people and many of them will follow you. But I am taking a different route and following only a few, "listening" and learning. IMO, Twitter will be bigger than Facebook because of the people that are buying in to it. I’ve found that Twitter is better suited as an idea source than a marketing source.

And with all web 2.0 traffic generation strategies (like YouTube, Digg, Twitter), they usually don't convert as well as other traditional methods like Adwords and Article Marketing.

Simple to use, messages are short & sweet and so far, as Dr. Todd mentioned above, it hasn't been slammed with hard core sales pitches so far. I've learned quite a bit just following those short "tweets". Hope it stays this way. Rick Wilson aka CorpRebel 8) I’ve gotten to really like Twitter.

Twitter is all about relationships. It's a fantastic place to network. I've created a product due to a discussion on Twitter. I regularly correspond with a number of fellow marketers on Twitter. I hunt down my graphics artist on Twitter. It's also a place where I can give my followers good information -- tools or websites I find online, the great Internet radio station I recently discovered, etc. It's also where I can give occasional notices of my own blog posts or newly uploaded videos. Anything I feel will be useful to my followers, as long as I DON'T ABUSE their trust. I don't think of Twitter as a marketing tool. I think of it as a communications tool.

I'm using Twitter to build relationships which can ultimately result in a customer base. My goal is to provide free quality content with no links. I'm using roughly 80% content and 20% personal stuff. They can always click on my website in my profile box. I need to show people that I am an expert in my niche before I start to sell something. On Twitter, someone can ask me a question and I can answer them and it seems more personal in my opinion. Please let me know if you think this is the right approach to take. Thanks.

I've also seen quick results. There are 2 kinds of marketers using Twitter. You, I, many others, I think are doing it right. The relationship is the most important. Interaction is paramount. Then there are some big names who simply try to market to their flocks. I suspect they're failing with that technique because they tend to stop tweeting after awhile. Too bad for them. Great for us. Twitter's great and I hope it maintains its pristine pleasantness. If it gets oversaturated with heavy-handed direct marketing its aura will change. Good post, Stanley. twID: DrTodd http://www.MapYourAptitude.com Interesting stats. I’ve also seen quick results.
