10 Killer Ways To Make Money With Twitter
This is a guest post by Anil Gupta of scopeForMoney.com
As we all know Twitter is among the hottest social networks currently on the internet. It is the most used tool for those who are trying to market on the internet. It is boon for internet marketers. This also means that bloggers like us can make fast money online using Twitter.
People can get success in making money with their Twitter profile like we use blogging as a mean to make money. And the best thing about Twitter is that profile pages as well as lots of services related to twitter are free. In today’s post, I’m going to discuss Top 10 Killer Ideas For Making Money With Twitter:
Idea 1: Direct Advertising
The companies which want to advertise their products through Twitter. However, these companies require a high click-through rate of your tweets. The click through rate of your tweets can be analyzed by URL tracking services like bit.ly or SU.pr. Also you will be requiring a large number of followers. So if you have a good click-through ratio and large number of people following you then this is a good option.
Idea 2: Monetizing Twitter Profile Background
The background of Twitter profile can you earn you some money too. There are websites like TwittAd.com which provide services to twitter user to monetize their twitter background page. Advertisers who are interested in you will place a background image on our profile which provides publicity to their company. You can select the duration and price you want to keep your advertiser. Once that is finalized TwittAd will use the Twitter API to upload the ad to your Twitter profile.
Idea 3: Personal Bio
Did you know that your bio on Twitter could also be worth some money. Bio is the area of your Twitter profile page where you write about yourself. You can make money by putting a sales message on your bio.
Idea 4: Redirecting Services
This method to make money on Twitter is somewhat similar to the CPV (cost-per-view) way of making money. When a person clicks on your tweet links to reach his desired page then there is an advertisement page that opens up for a few seconds before it is redirected to the landing page. The payout in this type of advertising is generally in CPM (per thousand impressions). The only drawback is that this may not be appreciated by your followers who click on your link. So the point is to not put an ad link to all links that tweet on your profile.
Idea 5: Finding Sponsors
Twitter could be a great place where you can find your future sponsors. You can carefully have many people of your blog niche following you and then tweet for sponsors. Many webmasters have found sponsors by tweeting it on Twitter.
Idea 6: Tweeting Affiliate Links
This is a way to sell affiliate products through your tweets. If you are a reputed Twitter user with many followers then there is a high chance that your followers purchase affiliate links that you recommend. So by tweeting link to the affiliate product page you can get high commission on each sale depending on the product. Just make sure that you are selling quality products and not poor quality as it will affect your credibility for future affiliate sales.
Idea 7: Build a Brand
By tweeting you can eventually build a brand for your company. By tweeting your niche posts. You can create a brand image for yourself or your company. Twitter is a powerful medium which many people use; it is up to us to brand ourselves. This can happen in the long run as people will slowly begin to recognize you.
Idea 8: Professional Twitterer
This is a lot like pro-blogging, those who become professional Twitterers. Pro-Twitterers are people who do not tweet for themselves but are hired by big corporations and companies to build an online presence through Twitter.
Idea 9: Twitter Trends
You can keep up with the trends that are occurring on Twitter to optimize it on your site. These trends are topics that people are looking for most on the internet. You can make use of this trend to post new topics or provide new insight.
Idea 10: Make Invaluable Connections
Almost all big people of the internet make use of Twitter. Make priceless contacts with people who are more successful than you. This way you can learn a lot and they could prove to be very useful to you in the long run.

I have a friend who’se a professional twitterer. The job is simply amazing. I remember myself exclaiming… “someone pay’s you to… tweet?!?”. Haha. Of course that was still the dawn of Twitter. After that, he was able to expound my knowledge on the social media power of twitter.

I would suggest you to get some genuine followers to your Twitter account and share valuable stories with them. And when you do it, there will be more people interested in your profile on Twitter and there will also be some people who would be interested in using your services to promote their businesses
December 12, 2009

If my definition about genuine follower is right, so the mostly effective way to get it is : To show your twitter account, and offer people to follow only on site which have same topic with your mostly tweet topic, right?
F.e if your tweet is mostly about make money online, it’s better to search follower from smartbloggerz, dp, tzi, right?

What is defined by genuine follower? Is it about people who have same interest with you or what? If yes, too bad that i know from 200 of my follower, half of them is about just to following back because i following them up.

Genuine in the sense following u for the purpose of following u. I have recently come across a list of 1000 people who will follow u back if u follow them. They are now genuine. They follow lot of people ultimately see none of their updates.
Senthil Ramesh´s last blog ..How To Use Facebook Effectively

Oh i get it. So genuine follower is a follower who follow you to see an update from you, right? Or in other word, their taking attention on our tweet. CMIIW

CMIIW? What does it mean, Akira?

The only problem is you can not choose your follower. I mean you can follow someone interesting but how do you get someone interesting or genuine to follow you. Besides what will you do if someone you think isn’t “genuine” follows you? Block them?

Rockin post Anil, affiliate links are a real good way to make money with twitter, but i doubt that direct advertising is efficient enough unless you have a mass number of followers or a very famous blog. Anyhow this has been a pretty good post. I’ve spoken to many people who have made from $40 to $120 from Twitter, this maybe a small amount but it is very useful for newbies.

I think there is no harm in doing advertisement on any platform by the time we are sharing valuable resources with our blog readers and followers on Twitter. With this, we also need to keep a ratio of something like 10 free tweets + one paid tweet. And your followers will not mind that one paid tweet if it’s of some use to them or you are promoting something which they will get at a very cheap prices if they buy that product through you. Suppose you share tips about making money to your followers on Twitter and in between, you send few tweets some of products that are going to help them earn some money some way will be as helpful as your non-paid tweets
