Oh yeah, I had Atari, and I don’t know if you’re old enough to remember there was something before that, and I had that as well, the only kid where I lived who had it.

When I mention Twitter, my kids look at me like I’m nuts.

I grew up with Atari- man would the kids today think that’s boring. It was hot stuff for us!

You’re right about the loyal following, Deb, and the updated and live, in my opinion, will deliver better.

Learning how to get more followers on twitter is relatively easy. By delivering updated messages every day, you have the power to attract a loyal following.

In essence, one has to have a diversity of things to keep Twitter folks interested.

Good afternoon, Mitch.

I think Twitter, like blogs, should be used for however you want to use it.

If you want to do 100% marketing, or 100% socializing, or a mixture of both, then go for it.

I do both.

Some days I want to talk to friends and other days I want to sell stuff.

Anyone who follows me on Twitter learns this in fairly short order and they get to vote by following or unfollowing me, whichever they prefer.

By the same token, I follow and unfollow others based on how interesting I am in what they’re saying.

I read lots of blogs, Squidoo pages, and articles that I see on Twitter — when I’m in the mood to do it.

I automatically tweet my new blog posts and sometimes tweet about things that other people have written that I found to be interesting.

I read Twitter when I’m in the mood and ignore it when I’m not.

So, what someone else does with their Twitter account never really bothers me, but I do immediately unfollow anyone who sends me a direct message that isn’t a personal message.

All the best,

JD

To generate more followers on twitter, you must have fresh content such as helpful tips, and tweets videos and some other items of interest to your followers. By having updated posts, you will get more people willing to take a look at your tweets. If you don’t update and have fresh content, you have the risk of getting unfollowed.

I agree Marie; that and people recognize that you know some up-to-date tactics you could use for other purposes.

I think the main reason to use social media channels if you’re looking to make money blogging is that social media is a great way to grow your readership, find more people who are interested in your niche and ultimately the more eyes on your blog the higher the chances of earning revenue off your advertisements.

There is also the fact that promoting your content, or even yourself through social media channels is a great way to also grow legitimacy in the blogosphere – again keeping the eyes on your blog.

Best,

Isn’t that something? Someone else commented her awhile back and said the kids love texting by phone rather than hanging on a computer to talk via Twitter; I guess they need to be mobile.
