Twitter needs to get more reasonable in helping out the users. It should add more features on a regular basis. Twitter should make use of its large network and help out users to make the best out of twitter whatever they are involved with like learn, teach, get business, find partners, get latest updates and so on..

I am an struggleling entrepreneur looking for and creating opportunities and I hate to place this idea online, but if webpronews present it to twitter, please be honest and share some of the money if they buy the idea,,.

Ok webpronews. Here it is, Twitter its much more IDEA specific than google. Twitter its much more keyword base and much more DIRECTED of what ONE IS looking for HEVE interest IN. So what twitter can do to make money is do mass linked twitts to specific groups OR DO mass linked advertising twitts period. TWITTER SHOULD do 25 cents microcharge for each click ON THE links OR LINK PLACED ON THE TWITTS.

Meaning, if I am an small company, and I have $250 or $1000 of dollars for advertaising, I would place these moneys on a twitt account, and every time someone click on the link, a charge would be place on the account. However, the person who IS ADVERTISING should get the analicts and the records or who went to the link and iether GET the website or twitter link to follwo up and make a potential connections wit the persons who clicked on your advertising link. In fact, this idea could work for all social networks. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK AND BE HONEST WEBPRONEWS.

Twitter can definitely be used as a marketing tool but you have to have a method. Just tweeting about whatever, whenever with no purpose in mind won't help you. You also can't use it to push your products or make hard sales, that won't work.

Have a clear cut use for twitter, develop a schedule of when to use and why you are using it and you'll see results.

Good Article, Thank You, Chris! :)

So that we are not all just "preaching to the choir" ...

How do we get this Message regarding the Business Benefits of Twitter out to Business Owners not already on Twitter and/or online yet?

Thank you again, Chris for the Good Article! :) and Everyone Have a Great Day! :)

I have received numerous links and have also given out links to people who have befriended me on Twitter. Occasionally I will use the search feature to find people to network with who are related a niche that I might be working in. For example, for my new travel directory, I might use the twitter search feature to find people who have tweeted about travel related phrases. I then ask them if they would like a free link on my travel directory. Numerous bloggers have responded by adding my directory to their blog rolls.

Just one example of link building using Twitter.

Excellent article about Twitter and the opportunities involved with small business. I found that Twitter interfaces with so many other social media sites like Facebook, MySpace and my favorite, Ning.

I use the twitter search function a little different. Because I am in internet marketing, there is aneed to have up to date niche related news. The twitter search bar is a great way of finding out whats hot in whatever niche Iam interested in

I never thought of look for direct customers. I've just been treating twitter like a forum and providing mostly info with a little advertising.

My Twitter page is in my name so follow me!

I think this is a great idea of what a business can do with Twitter:

Instead of posting marketing messages, this medical supply company puts interesting and fun health facts.

Those twitter demographics blow me away. I assumed that only the under 30 crowd was heavily into twitter. Not. The #1 demographic in your chart is 45-54. Them old folks is twittering!

p.s. I can cal them "old folks" because according to my driver's license I fall within this demographic.

I actually saw a twitter post where the person was offering advertising opportunities on their twitter background. At first I thought how dumb is that, because obviously there is no click-through metric. But then again if they have built up such a huge following... who knows?

I like twitter and the apps for it.
I have been replacing old school text chat with twitter and seeing good results. It can be used as a customer service tool. I have also added coupons through twitter and seeing results with that as well

I am surprised by its growth because it gets too much negative press. This could be sour grapes. Occasionally I will use a site similar to alexa.com to show the graph that compares how its hits rank among popular sites.
I use Twitter to engage an interaction in and about especially the automotive maintenance category. The two other home business ventures hopefully will come into the conversation. When a sale or new account occurs, I like to ask if Twitter was the source of the introduction to the product concerned.

I'm a nutrition consultant, and my clients often tell me that they don't know how to make the right choices in the grocery store. I'm planning on offering access via Twitter, so that they can ask questions as they arise, for example: "Which margarine is better for me, Earth Balance or Fleishman's?"
