pretty motivating post

I am also using sponsored tweets but i have earned only 5$ , hope to get half of johns earning (:

I can't imagine making money on Twitter like this unless the person Tweeting is incredibly famous. Getting a plug from Obama might drive a few sales, can't say I'd feel comfortable with trying this service out, however.

Maybe i'm too conventional, though.

I agree with you! It seems we are both conventional :)

Making money on Twitter is kind of strange for me. I can't imagine too.

Nice to see how much you're making with Sponsored Tweets, unfortunately, I haven't got enough followers to sign up. Maybe later..

I'm impressed :)

Didnt have much luck with Sponsored but made some with adly.. I guess i am missing something

Really cool post on how to monetize further. Thanks John!

john what's your take on adly do you use them too or are you exclusive to sponsored tweets? just curious

i dont like tweet. i think facebook is the best. what's your think ?

This one is inspirational to many bloggers but they should also understand that 4K because John Chow name added with around 50K followers.

Yes that is the bottom line.

No u dont need so many followers.

I have about 4000 followers and i receive offers. Infact on my other account where i have about 1700 followers, i had 5 open opportunities today! though they were worth $ 0.10 only.

What i want to tell u is that you should have a good twitter account, tweet good tweets and use good keywords in your sponsoredtweets account. Opps will come Inshallah :)

I have over a 1000 followers and I still haven't been sent any opportunities. What gives?

Will this only work if you have 50,000+ followers?

John your twitter is not only mini-blog but also a money making machine :p

If John is wearing T Shirts than that also money making machine for him.

good earning from tweeter
yeah everybody love it

cheers

That is wonderful! Congrats! I'm at $41.00, which isn't bad at all for me at least :)

Now That's spare change! :-)

That is some $$$ from doing time pass on social media sites.

Great achievement, John :).

Nice one. Now that's pretty motivating!

Not at 4K yet, but liking the way it's going ;-) thanks for the tip!

Does this service give you the opportunity to approve the ads before they are posted?

Michael, John always tell his advertisers (on tweeter) to let him do the writing job because he knows his followers very well.

Curious, but true. When I search on Twitter using Find People, and look for JohnChow. Twitter doesn't find you. How strange is that?

That's crazy, just for sending freakin tweets.

Jeremy is earning 10K for wearing T shirts only.

And that's why I don't subscribe to your twitter feed!

Sponsored tweets is great income opportunity!
Especially if you have popular twitter account with followers who have trust in you.

Yes that is the basic theme and how this sponsored tweets work.

That's not half bad! For how many tweets did you earn that, John?

I have to admit I have always been interested on advertising on Twitter, as in paying some personalities and influencers on Twitter to tweet about a couple of the projects I am working on.

Is it effective as an advertising medium though? Has anyone ever used these sponsored tweets or any like application to generate a buzz on Twitter? Would be genuinely fascinated to hear your results and experiences.

i really envy that. but i do believe ad.ly is great as well or dont you think so?

It did not take long to read that post?!

Yep, but I would love to see that tweets through which John made such amount.

Twitters seems become making money machine for you john.

At this stage of blogging everything is money making machine for John.

I love sponsored tweets too, but not as publisher, as advertiser =)

So, you've actually made money as an advertiser by buying sponsored tweets?

Or may be he/she advertise his/her own products through sponsored tweets.

Its alright for some :-)
Funnily enough I have just written a post about the hidden benefits of Sponsored tweeting:

Good to see you are doing well with Sponsored Tweets

I wonder if the advertisers got a true $4,000 worth of value out of their ads.

I think whenever they want to launch any products they use this kind of service to reach at maximum people within few minutes and their purpose solve.
