These last few months, I’ve been spending my time creating or editing sites related to Twitter. Because the number of these Twitter-related sites and tools keeps growing every day, it gets harder and harder to get people to visit them.
Below, you’ll find a list of sites and directories I use to drive traffic to my new Twitter sites and apps.
Visit them to keep track of all new launches, or submit your own.

Quality content, link-building, social media, and on-page optimization - these are just a sampling of the many aspects of SEO. Depending on who you ask, you will get a different answer about which aspect of SEO is most important. You may feel overwhelmed with the SEO tasks ahead of you but you can prioritize your duties by following these simple steps.
Determine Your Goals
Want to know how to prioritize your SEO efforts? Start out by defining your goals. Whether you want to sell products or services, build brand image, or increase site traffic, you need to determine what your priority is and focus on the aspects of SEO that will help you achieve that goal. Once you figure out what your top priorities are, create key performance indicators, or KPIs. The more specific your KPIs are the better. When you have specific KPIs, you can easily determine whether you are meeting or missing your goals. Some examples of KPIs include the goals to get 1000 new newsletter subscribers in one month, sell 10 information products in one week, or rank in the top ten Google results for a specific keyword term.
You would probably work harder at optimizing it for the proper keywords if you knew how much traffic your website could get from search engines. It is amazing how many Internet business owners do not practice basic search engine optimization.
In this article we will talk about a few of the basics any serious Internet business should be following.
1. One mistake people make is they think they need to start from ground zero and either totally overhaul their existing website or get a new one. In reality there are probably many good things about your existing website and some of the pages may have already been spidered by search engines.
For this reason you want to employ a few of the other tips we will talk about with your existing site and not make major changes to it.
These last few weeks, twitter and my website flipping adventures are taking up almost all of my time, yet my eye fell on a little tool Google added to their search result pages: The Wonder Wheel (sounds promising, doesn’t it?)
You can find it by clicking the ’show options’ link underneath the Google logo on the search results page. In the menu that appears, you’ll find a link to the wonder wheel.
When you click it, the wonder wheel will open, and you’ll be able to dig in deeper into your subject, and find some popular related search terms.
Are you looking for a new job that gives you better pay, more work satisfaction, more leisure time and opportunity for growth? How do you think is that connected with your Twitter profile? Let me tell you.
In earlier days employers never accessed Internet to find out more about a prospective employee just because there was no Internet. These days it is the first function any employer will perform- search you on the Internet and click on what is said about you and what are you saying. If you have a Twitter profile in your name, that will appear in the results near the top and a click will reveal a lot about you to your employer. If you were an employer, what kind of an employee will you look for- let us list the qualities.
1. Sincere 2. Hard working 3. Efficient 4. Effective 5. Proficient in his/her work 6. Good communicator 7. Fun loving 8. Team worker 9. Ready to learn, etc.
I stumbled onto Twitter as a marketing tool completely by accident. I was looking for a way to promote a book I’m working on, and a friend suggested that I do two things: Start a blog and get on Twitter.
“What is Twitter? I don’t get how will it help me promote my book to tell people what I am having for breakfast,” I replied. “It would take me too long to explain, just try it out,” he said.
What follows here is a week-by-week review of how I learned that Twitter can be an important business-development tool for lawyers and law firms.
Twitter can be an incredible asset to your business, just like email can be. But (just like email), it can also be a huge time-waster and can suck hours out of your day without you even noticing. You get on Twitter and then the next time you look up it’s an hour later!
A portion of self-control is important for any business person. If you are self-employed, it becomes even more important! Wasting time is wasting money.
Wasting time on Twitter is like sitting around the water cooler and chatting with coworkers about last night’s American Idol segment - it might be fun, and it passes the time, but it wasted time that could have been used to make money.
Here are some tips on how to keep your Twitter time under control:
Not so long ago, I became to know and love Twitter.
It allows me to gather and share knowledge and tips, without having to write entire blog posts - which - for me - is pretty time consuming,
It provides the opportunity to quickly interact with people, without having to abandon what I’m doing
While I was learning the ropes, I thought it would be a good idea to share my findings on a special blog. TwitterKnowHow.com was born…
Unfortunately, I have too much on my hands right now to keep managing the blog. I’m already working on several other projects, and I simply can’t spare the time.
So I’ve put up the site for sale.
Before I did, I figured I had to drive some traffic to it, in order to make it an interesting offer. Because traffic generation is not one of my best skills, I started looking for ideas…
These last few days, I’ve been drowning in work. No wonder, since I’m working on several projects at a time. Me and my biz, we would probably profit more if I could stick to one particular project and work this out properly. But sometimes the ideas just keep coming…
As a result, I simply don’t have time to write a long blog post, yet I want to give you a little something - being Christmas and all
