If you need to know the basics of Twitter, please read my "Twitter 101" post and we can start at ground zero.

No offense, but if Twitter is new, don't read this post.

On the other hand..if you have dabbled in Twitter, and realized the potential..and want to explode your twitter exposure, you need to read on.

Liken this to when Ebay started... you had your homebodies, scouring their attic for old trinkets, putting grainy pics of them on their ebay page and selling a few for an extra $73 dollars a month. Whoopee.. Then you had your "Power Sellers" who realized the true massive opportunity of Ebay, and got Third Party software to autoload auctions, auto bid at last moment, and incredible design programs to make thier auctions stand out, and many, many people have been making substantial incomes on Ebay since.

Nothing wrong with either scenario (remember..I said, if Twitter is new, don't bother with this post...at least NOW).

CARRYING ON...I've found a software program that I'll liken to the Ebay days..it's called Hummingbird ~ Twitter Pro Tools by Mesiab Labs. All I can say, this is like Twitter Search, Massive Follow/unfollow, auto timed actions, and management of your followers and ones you follow, all from one interface.

Let me be clear, this software costs a fair penny, but realize this...what is Twitter great for? You have an online presence, you build your "list" of followers who like what you do, and you can (if you choose) market to them, duhh? So if you are looking for a 1-4% "opt in" rate...how many followers will you need to do damage? Now again, this is aimed at marketing people, twitter users that have an agenda. People, this is not spamming, but if you're posting up links to products that you promote along with all the great content that you are providing (yes, this is very important, remember that Twitter is a community), and you have 10,000 followers, what can that conversion rate mean to you in income?

I've attached a few screenshots that have sold me on the product...look at what this thing does??

Just click on these pics if you need to read more detail..

I cannot imagine where my followers will be when I implement this and can track on TwitterCounter

Get back to me in the comments section below if you decide to buy and try out, I'm very curious about your results.

Ok, perhaps I'll shoot a video in a few weeks and show you my increases and results, and then we'll truly see if the price is worth it?

By the way, here is the main site to review, videos and pricing are there..

Here's to your online success!

Reality has it that we all have too many things to do, not enough time, and especially with the internets creation of ADD, I have found it all to easy to get distracted and off task while we are building our internet business. Blogging and content creation for sites obviously can involve article creation. Building your sites content with articles and blog posts relevant to your core topics or sub topics is key to drive Google traffic, readership and sell your affiliate products.

So knowing this, I've recently been investigating some content creation "assistants" and discovering how various products work. Now please don't take my post here as a review, because I have not used many of these tools, but looking at the power of what they are doing, I certainly can see their value. Basically, what happens is that you have a topic in mind, you input various key words and more importantly, key word combinations, and these various software tools do extensive searches on whatever platforms you specify, and in a matter of moments, return relevant content from blog posts, news articles, video titles, and other media sources.

Take a look at this video, explaining what the process is...(if you don't automatically go to the video, scroll down if you don't mind).

Now from there, you can choose to quote the sources, or combine the information into your own writing, saving substantial fact gathering and research, sine the tools are doing it for you.

I'd like to subscribe to one of these services and take a look. IF any of my readers do so, please comment below and let us know what you find out.

Here's to your online success,
Tony

p.s. In case you missed the link above, here you go...best of luck!

I spent a lot of time figuring out Wordpress (look for my upcoming video course on Mastering Wordpress in 14 days or less) and one thing I've learned...themes DO MATTER!

Whether you are blogging for fun or profits, the right theme can be the perfect wrapper around your content (most important) and can keep viewers on your site much longer.  Think of it as meeting your new contacts or friends with the most perfect smile.  They will be happier to get to know you, make friends, and stay in contact with  you.  Unfortunately (or not?) todays web surfers have extreme ADD (attention deficit disorder) and even an ugly site with great content just may not make the grade.

A recent product that has come out that is great for affiliate marketers is the WordPress theme called "Affiliate Theme" from Unique Blog Designs.  I have had very good luck with their designs in the past, and have tried this theme out on many blogs I run.  Being preloaded to customize almost everything, colors, affiliate links, headers, footers,etc... makes it so much easier and faster to get a niche site up and running...and most importantly making money!
There are several options for buying, a single site liscence, mulitple sites, and a Super Affiliate Option for right around $197.  Take  a look below, feel free to email me any comments.
