Time to share a great tip with all the Buzzer's.
Most blog owners are not big fans of Twitter. I spent a bunch of time working on the whole "getting Traffic from Twitter" thing before I even tried to make it do anything to get results.
Lets talk about feeding your Blogs or Auto blogs to twitter. I can say the secret in one word……
TwitterFeed!
Here's the trick. If you look at the advanced options, you will see a prefix and suffix field.
Now , Twitter is a funny mother. You can set your Blog feed up and amp it out to all your twitter accounts and may get like 2 hits per hour.
BUT….
If you put in the top trending keyword from twitter into your prefix and now you may get 30-50 hits per hour on that one feed.
Problem: Twitter is like a rabid beast that the trends change all the time.
Solution: Use your favorite Macro program to do the following:
- Do a search for the top trending keyword
- Copy that word
- Paste it into the prefix of your twitterfeed feed prefix
Do this for every feed you have set up every couple of hours. Traffic will increase an estimated 300%
I tested this with 32 feeds and I set up dedicated machine set up just for this task.
Hope this helps. I know may are working with auto blogs. Twitterfeed and making sure you are tweeting with the top trending keyword is a great way of integrating the autoblog into the crazy world of twitter.
Ramp it up, or even outsource the work! Twitter can be a valuable traffic monster if you keep the content flowing, streaming and keywords up to date.
I had 38,000 hits to one of my test blogs last week. It works and it is FREE !!
