Twitter not only allows others to let people know what they are doing at the moment, but it has become a fantastic marketing tool.
Many, many businesses, organizations and entrepreneurs have utilized the power of Twitter to help them rev up their business and provide visibility.
More and more businesses and entrepreneurs are using Twitter and other blogging tools to help 'connect' themselves to their customers.
Not only does this present a sense of rapport, but it also presents a theme of closeness and relatability.
What a great way to market, don't you agree? Most customers and returning customers love to patronize businesses because of how friendly and relatable they are.
You can provide a link to your website on your Twitter profile, and everyone who follows you will see it.
Even people who don't follow you will see your link, so it is a wonderful way to provide visibility to your business.
Starting Twitter is easy, but the thing you must learn is to not 'sell' on Twitter.
Try not to push your products or services with every post you make.
People tend to only follow people they find interesting or who provided great information.
They will click your link to your website in your profile description, so there is no need to continue to let them know that it's there.
Now it's alright to once and awhile provide a link in your Tweet to a project or product, but only once in awhile.
This will help your chances of being followed by more and more people.
Also, if you want more followers that have would most likely have an interest in your business, remember to post Tweets that have one or more words relating to your businesses.
Somehow people notice these and start following you.
I once posted about marketing, and the next day I woke up and discovered eight marketing gurus were following me.
It's amazing what might happen through Twitter.
