Whether you are trying to get more traffic to your website, or simply want to get your name recognized, Twitter is one tool you do no want to leave out of your marketing arsenal.  It’s also great if you happen to be in network marketing!

When you provide valuable information to other members, you will become someone that many will seek out and want to interact with.  Provide value and offer solutions when you can, and soon your reputation will precede you.  Many people will look for your tweets again and again because they like and respect what you have to say and are interested in the valuable information you provide to them.

You can ask same-time questions, which is a great way to get others to interact with you.  A word of caution here:  Don’t use it to spam or to constantly try to sell yourself.  If you do this, you are bound to make people think ill of what you have to say because you might just be trying to sell them something rather than teach them something.  Make yourself available to others and include helpful or interesting information in the conversation.
