If you’re still on the fence as to if you should be using Twitter or are wondering if you’re getting the most you can from the service here are 5 practical ways that I’ve used Twitter to grow my business in the past week.
As I’ve mentioned before, Twitter is the #1 source of traffic to my site after the search engines and here are a few methods that I’m using:
1) Promote New Content On My Website
2) Connect With People I’m Doing Business With
3) Congratulate A Client Who Is Having A Birthday
4) Make New Connections With Potential Partners
5) Thank People Who Mention And Promote My Business
As you can see, it doesn’t take much to connect with people through Twitter and let them know that you’re paying attention and that you care. Twitter can be a great way to quickly build new connections and maintain the ones you currently have.
What are some of the ways that you’re using Twitter? Please give specific examples by commenting below – I would love to hear from you!
Its also a good research tool to see which topics are currently popular, which can be useful information.
Also can be used to find out people’s opinions about certain products/topics etc.
Great point Chris!
Any examples you’ve experienced personally that you can share?
Nice one.

Great article Evan! I use twitter to promote our vacation sweepstakes which closes on Oct 30th.
Thanks for the tips guys. I don’t use Twitter much because I don’t see much use for it so any good tips I can get might just change my mind.
One of these days we’ll get you on Twitter Trent!
Haha you just might!
Wow and I thought Twitter was only used to status updates. I will be more conscious of integrating it into my website and letting the world know when I have written something or made changes!
