In this article we will take a look at this easy twitter method that most of you have probably not seen or heard about. With this method we can promote anything and everything. It’s mostly used to get traffic to affiliate offers by most marketers. I personally think it’s a great way to direct traffic to dropshop stores to sell products. Another option is to promote your own blog. By doing this you can build your list and just getting more traffic to your blog can get you more ads revenue and even get google to increase your SEO rankings.
Whatever your reason this method works very effectively, but like all methods it does require some split testing to get the most of this method.
How much traffic does Twitter get and where does it come from?
Checking similarweb we can see that Twitter received 7 billion visits per month. This is a mammoth of amount of traffic that we can potentially tap into. We also see that 25% of the traffic is coming from the United States which is a bonus. We can see that Twitter is worth the time and effort to get a small portion of this traffic.
How does this work?
Our easy Twitter method works by posting a tweet either promoting our product or service then have an external site with real users retweeting the post to their followers. This exposes the tweet to more people but twitter will circulate to more twitter accounts as it sees the tweet being shared.
How do we retweet the tweet
There’s are many services that retweet tweets but the two that I personally use and have found to be safe and cheap if you decide to buy points. For our method we will use the free option. The drawback is it will require you to accumulate points on these sites. The two sites in question are youlikehits.com and traffup.com.
I primarily watch videos when using youlikehits to accumulate points, and there are endless videos opportunities to amass points. For traffup I use the browsing web sites option. These sometimes do run out, so you will need to be patient for more sites to appear.
Let’s run the method
First we need to create a tweet with our affiliate offer, product or whatever we are promoting and hit tweet.
Once we have created the tweet and posted it’s now time use our two sites to retweet the tweet and get some good traction.
With youlikehits you will need the tweet id to use the retweet option. The image below shows you who to find this.
Traffup will require your twitter profile as shown below.
Split testing tweets
Now we wait and see what converts and what doesn’t. I have tried this method many times and most of my success has come with dropshipping products in the pet niche. So, don’t just try one tweet and judge the method based on that one case study. I suggest you try it on different accounts. Be sure to use a warmed up twitter account and use one that you post at least once a day. Twitter likes to see consistency and activity.
Conclusion:
The easy twitter method described is nice to use in conjunction with other traffic methods. As I said earlier this has brought me some nice sales. When I add a new product to my store, I will always post to my social accounts. My twitter account will get a boost of retweets which occasionally will reach thousands of people. Without the retweets it may only get 20 or 30 views. So, it does work but it’s not to be used as the sole traffic source.
