      not much avantages,

      & it's design is also not good.

      but main advantage when we post what we are doing ,
      or anything we want,

      all our followers will know it & will visit that webpage.



      you have a 1000's of followers easily ,


      it can be maximum upto lakhs of followers,


      following others is the main entertainment on twitter ,
      from which other will know our & follow us ,


      i got 101 follower in a single day of joining only ,
      & they like my updates.
      it's amazing.

      Hello My Love,

      Twitter is good for marketing your site. As a rule of thumb, you follow those who follow you. If you want more people to follow you, answer questions in TweetQA and post your own questions. Tweeter has a directory called Twellow which you can add people and choose your target market.

      TweetDeck is a software that you download to receive Tweets from Tweeters that you follow. It acts like a mobile on your computer.

      I tested it with Hubpages and my other site and proved that Twitter really works. It brings the traffic to your site.

      Tweet!

        Hai Sheena!

        I did not know all of that other stuff about Twitter. I will have to check into it. BTW I am adding everyone who is on Twitter from the Hub! I think that you all are so amazing. I am learning so much here! I wish you all could give college credit. At least then I would feel as if I am learning something.

    Uninvited Writerposted 15 years ago

    There are very many advantages to using Twitter. It is a good way to pass on links to your writings, its a good way to learn about new websites and it's a good way to get to know some people better. Not everyone clicks on all your links but I guess it can be used for backlinks.

    Personally I don't believe that the number of people you follow or follow you that matters, it's the quality. I will not follow everyone automatically especially people who are obviously going to spam or if I don't find what they say interesting (like people who twit on what they are doing every minute of the day), I expect others to be the same when following me.

    Julie Amos has written a few hubs about Twitter, like this one:

    Eric Graudinsposted 15 years ago

    Twitter is great if you follow some simple guidelines. Here's some of mine.

    1. Tweet about what's interesting - not what you're doing.

    2. If I follow someone because I find them interesting, I'm not offended if they don't follow me back. My tweets may be as boring as hell for them to read.

    3. Likewise, If someone follows me and their twitter stream is full of stuff that I don't find interesting (ie just advertisements, or an endless stream of the minutae of their lives) I probably won't follow them.

    3. I prefer quality over quantity. I totally ignore all the "get a squillion followers by tomorrow by using this nifty application" type messages.

    4. I'll sometimes check out who my followers are following. If they are selective, there will be some very interesting people that I can follow.

    cheers, Eric G.
    p.s. my twitter link is on my profile page.
