Why A Blogger Should Use Twitter?

by Sahil Kotak on December 17, 2009

Twitter is the most popular micro-blogging service on the internet today. And if you are not using it then you should do it immediately. As because you do not know what things you are missing by not using twitter. In this post, I will tell you why you should use Twitter if you are a blogger.

why

1. Get Traffic From Twitter

Integrating Twitter account with your blog allows you to get some quality targeted traffic from your Twitter followers. Allowing you to spread your new posts with your community. And also you get more traffic by Re-tweets by your followers.

2. Stay Updated

A bonus when you are a twitter user you will find people twitting on the things in their area. Due to this you will actually not need an newspaper to read as you get most of the updated news around relating to you. I find this aspect of twitter very exciting. Try yourself this is gr8.

3. Human contact

When you are a blogger and are constantly working on your PC you loose the human contact. You do not know how you should behave when you are in a group. But twitter will help you solve your problem. And in addition you will also get benefits of group discussions.

4. Stay in touch

Twitter account can also be integrated on your mobile phone so if you are not on your PC then also you can get updated messages through SMS. This can help you a lot when you do not know anything about web totally.

5. Seniors Posses

All the senior bloggers or the one who’s blogs you like to read have an Twitter account. Why so? The answers may be different but all are beneficial. And the simple logic is if you want to become that big as themselves then you should do all those things that they do. It is an untold truth. I recommend to follow it.

6. Suggestions

You will get real suggestions for your questions and there are a real group of people on twitter who can be really useful to you. Not only that they are also very knowledgeable. Mark my words I found some very useful tips on it.

7. Helping Hand

You can find a huge help on this site they can help you in almost all the fronts. And also personal one’s.

8. More Personal

Twitter is more personal site then other social networking sites. As a person you can develop more and can solve your problems but do not start twitting about very personal things of yours.

9. A Better Scope

You can avail many better opportunities on twitter. And in return what you will have to give is just 5% of your power.

10. Earn Directly

Yes, it is true. You can directly earn from Twitter, there are many companies which pay you for tweeting. You can find more info about it here.

Don’t forget to follow RSS Feed or via E-Mail to get latest feed and also don’t forget to follow-on Twitter for latest updates.
