Make Money with Twitter Part 1

Make Money with Twit­ter is based on the under­stand­ing that where there is traf­fic, there is cash.

This Make Money with Twit­ter in 4 parts will describe step-by-step how I go after mak­ing money on Twit­ter. The pri­or­ity num­ber one is to get fol­low­ers on twit­ter, as the mar­ket­ing power depends on how many peo­ple you can reach directly and indirectly.

Start by reg­is­ter­ing with Twit­ter. Make sure you choose a good user name, as that name will be part of your URL.

If you are focused on a key­word, you may use that key­word; if you are focus­ing on per­sonal rela­tions and the power of human rela­tions, then your Name is the bet­ter option to make money with Twitter.

Please keep in mind: Social Net­work Mar­ket­ing is mainly based on endorse­ments and per­sonal relations.

I have selected Yor­goN­estoridis as my user name.

First of all you can punch in a per­sonal pro­file and a pic­ture. The pic­ture is of the utmost impor­tance: make it a friendly pic­ture, smil­ing back at your vis­i­tors. The image is the first and most impor­tant ele­ment for imme­di­ate empa­thy or antipa­thy; it cre­ates curios­ity and trig­gers clicks.

I have loaded a Y-logo instead of a pic­ture to test the impact of a logo, and also to … swim against the stream. I tell you, my logo is really vis­i­ble from far on a page with loads of Twits. But it’s may be not a good idea … time will tell.

The sec­ond issue is your web­site link you can ad: another impor­tant issue. Choose well which link you will be enter­ing here. A good link could be a link to a sales page of your per­sonal prod­uct, an affil­i­ate link or just to your per­sonal web­site, from where peo­ple can fol­low all your links.

In as much I am con­cerned I enter my per­sonal Web­site URL and the address of my online pro­file on Cashflowin.com.

Finally you can select your look on Twit­ter: select your back­ground, either as a plain color or in image for­mat. You can get a free back­ground from MyTweet­Space or you can load your own pic­ture or image file.

I opted for the lat­ter ver­sion, con­sid­er­ing also that this could be adver­tis­ing space to sell :-).

Here is how my Twit­ter looks like after customization:

Cre­ate an image with a defined back­ground, in my case the image mea­sures 210 x 771 pixels:

[sin­glepic id=53 w=210 h=240 mode=web20 float=left]

You can edit it using Pho­to­Shop or GIMP or any other Edi­tor. I just used Web Graph­ics Cre­ator for a quick result here, select­ing black can­vas back­ground, pulling in a pic­ture and adding some text and addresses of some of my websites.

In Twit­ter, I selected the same back­ground color (#000000) and uploaded my Pic­ture (no tiling).

Con­sider that the Pic­ture uploaded has adver­tis­ing value. We will come back to this issue at a later stage.

Join our Web Mas­ters Train­ing Call tonight at yor­GOtalk at 8 pm Lon­don Time and we will help you with your customization.

Yes it’s pos­si­ble to set up mul­ti­ple accounts; I just cre­ated one for Ycademy:
