Follow Me on Twitter
I’ve been on Twitter for a about two months (follow me if you haven’t done so) and I can see the marketing potential of the tool. Twitter a great communication medium between you and your readers. While it’s meant to keep you in touch with friends and family, a blogger can use Twitter to keep his readers updated on what is happening on his blog. Whenever I have a new blog post, the first place I promote it on is Twitter.
The key to using Twitter to promote your blog is to build up a big following and the Geekpreneur eBook shows you many ways to do that. The book is good for both new and advance Twitters. It’s well worth the download and the read. And it’s totally free.
A big shout out goes to Geekpreneur for writing the book. You spotted a trend and you capitalized on it with a free eBook that I’m sure will be spreading across the Internet like a wildfire. Not a bad way to build your brand.

I don’t think many people realize how awesome it is. When it came out, everyone was wondering what the big deal was.
Now we know! (or at least we should know!)

Reply to this commentI love and hate the idea of Twitter. It’s great if I want to know where you are, other times I just want to unplug myself from the internet and hide for a while.
Reply to this commentOf course twitter is a great tool the only problem is the high traffic the system can’t handle and the website is down all the time.
Reply to this commentI think they should either define a time to post stuff or use a third-party application to take care of that.

I going to download this book, I’m not sure why everyone is “adoring” twitter, I need to read about it. Personally I don’t really like the idea, didn’t someone already try to impersonate John Chow on msn lately?
Reply to this commentJohn did you change server? I added your Entrecard blog to my Entrecard Generator script and when It loaded I was getting your website’s cpanel congratulations message.
Reply to this commentThanks.
Nope, still the same server. It’s just the way BlueFur set things up.
Reply to this commentOh thanks, I actually just checked and it turns out I added a “w” to http://www.johnchow.com so your subdomain was getting the traffic lol.

Reply to this commentThanks for this post John, I’ll check out that book.
I let people write on twitter about my most recent contest to get extra entries, but I’ve never actually used twitter myself. I’ve signed up and I have a few people following me, but I’ve yet to, uh, “tweet” I think the word is.
I’m so behind, I know.
Reply to this commentThis sounds interesting. My husband and I just created a blog and would like to generate interest. In addition to other tools, Twitter may be very useful. Thanks!
