Don’t Waste All Your Good Ideas on Tweets

Twitter is nice, but it isn’t a blog. If you like sending out little microblogs with blibbets of information then go ahead, but please don’t just use it as a spam dump for your advertisements.

Not everyone is going to look at your profile on Twitter so if you sit there all day just tweeting it isn’t going to get you anything different. I know, I’ve tried it. The only way I received more hits with Twitter is by actually making blog posts and having people visit the blog by reading what I’ve written.

I think that too many people end up spamming their affiliate links. It might get you immediate hits, but it might also get you banned and disrespected within the community.

The moral of the story? Let people know that you have something important to say. They might not agree with you, but they will respect you a lot more.
