We all want more and more Twitter followers to post our tweets to, but did you know that you could actually get more exposure for your tweets even without getting more followers? Continue Reading…

Upgrades at Twitt.US

We've already mentioned Twitt.US, a creative tweet exchange from Xavier Media where you can exchange tweets with other users to get more exposure for your messages. Now they've launched a new feature where you can have up to 6 different messages rotated, so instead of letting users just post one message from you they get a random message out of the six messages you've entered. This way people don't get bored by reading the same message over and over again….

Now a little bit about exactly how Twitt.US is working. By joining you post tweets for other users and for every message you post in your Twitter time line you earn credits based on how many followers you got.

These credits you earn will let you have your own messages posted in other peoples timelines. The more credits you have to more exposure your message will get.

Twitt.US also got an affiliate program where you can earn extra credits by referring new users to Twitt.US. You earn 10% of the credits earned by anyone referred by you for  their entire membership time.

Check out Twitt.US you too today!

Be-a-Magpie….don't think so!

I guess you all have heard about be-a-magpie.com, or at least you should have if you've been using Twitter lately. The site claims to be a money making opportunity for twitter users and a good way for advertisers to get people to notice their message. This is however not the case.

We've been using be-a-magpie.com since the start and the only tweets they've posted is their standard message promoting their affiliate program:

ad: Let your campaigns go viral with Magpie. Check out: http://be-a-magpie.com/

But what good will their affiliate program do if they don't have any advertisers willing to pay for people to tweet their ads? You're not going to earn anything anyway……

Our experience with be-a-magpie.com is that you're not earning anything and you will only tweet about their affiliate program that is basically worthless :(

We're not the only one thinking this. Just have  a look at the message we got from birdynumnumz:

@xaviermedia that magpie thing is a dud, why bother tweeting that crap any longer?

Instead of using magpie you should have a look at our own tweet exchange service Twitt.US where you can exchange tweets with other users completely free. This way you get real exposure for your tweets since you will get other users  to post your messages to their followers :D

Twitt.US also got an affiliate program where you get 10% of the credits earned by the users you've referred.

Forum marketing

One easy and simple way to advertise your services are to post ads in miscellaneuos "post ads for free" forums. It's important to point out that it's not about spamming forums with your links, instead write descriptive posts describing your products and services. It's important to not overdo it with links since it's better to post serveral posts instead of packing one post with thousands of links.

Also only post your ads in "post ads for free" accepting ads and not in any other forums because that's spam. Before you post I suggest you read the rules because each forum got their own set of rules. make also sure that you only post in the forum for ads and not in each and every place you can find link the introduction forum most forum got.

Here are some good forums where you can post your ads:

Ads based on surfing habits

Google will start showing ads on YouTube, Google.com and in their ad network (must be Adsense) based on your surfing habits.They will save your surfing habits for a couple of months so if you for example search for shoes you will see shoe ads during the Christmas shopping period.

Google got a lot of sources where they can track your surfing and base the ads you will see on. For example alot of sites use Google Analytics for statistical purposes, most people watch videos at YourTube at least some times per month and we all (almost at least) use Google.com to find stuff on Internet. If you for example watch a video on YouTube you're giving Google a lot of information they can use for the ad serving since all videos got detailed tags.

This is both good and bad of course since both advertisers and users will get the most out of the ads (relevant ads), which will cause more actions based on the ads. But the downside is the personal integrity, and therefore Google will offer a page where you can select your interests if Google hasn't guest them yet, see what interests Google think you have and of course also opt out completely from this service.

For advertisers this will mean that they can know already when they setup their campaign that their ads will been seen by users interested in their products and services, so hopefully this will be welcommed on the Internet.
