Now EzineArticles can automatically syndicate your new articles into your Twitter account so every time we accept a new article submission of yours, it's automatically updated on your Twitter profile.
Be sure to Follow EzineArticles on Twitter as we often give micro-status-updates often.
I've been noticing Twitter for a while now but have hesitated signing up. I'm interested in business networking and it doesn't seem to fill that function. Am I wrong?
Hi Edward, I am sure no expert, but the people in my group do a terrific job of promoting themselves and their interests. If you are able to sign into twitter and find me, look at the list of people I follow (including Chris Knight) and check them out. The ingenuity of their marketing and business networking talents amazes me!
The first few times I looked at tweets I felt as you do, but there's some hot stuff going on there.
Before you engage this automatic EzineArticles -> Twitter syndication module; be sure to legitimize your Twitter profile by UPLOADING your photo and fill out your Twitter profile.
Only takes 1-2 minutes and legitimizes you on Twitter.
I'm seeing way too many Twitter newbies not uploading their twitter photo or profile.
You're here to build personal credibility, right?
3) Updated Note: Automatic EzineArticles->Twitter updates will only work for *NEW* articles and will not work for OLD articles that have been edited. This is done on purpose to help our members keep trust with their Twitter-followership.
Great advice Christopher on using twitter.
Edward, all the top marketers use twitter.
I have found twitter tremendously useful for giving and receiving quick information.
This just takes it up a notch!
I thought Twitter is not good to spend time on. Now with ezine updating our articles, I am ready to create a twitter account now.
Twitter seems like a very good idea. The more exposure the better you always are. I will be setting up a Twitter account soon.
I had a hard time figuring out all the little tricks and tweaks, but find that people who haven't responded other ways, tweet me!
I recommend Twitter to everyone. I enjoy sharing my daily challenges with others as well as reading about theirs.
It is a very effective way of staying connected with the world around you.
I highly recommend Twitter! Coming from an email marketing coach that's telling you a lot.
Think of it this way – the more fishing lines in the pond, the better your chances of catching that fish!
This site seems to be very well thought out.
Chris, this is a great facility and I think Twitter provides good value for minimum effort. Every time I do a Twitter post, I end up with at least one more follower (building my list on another forum!).
Also I found that a recent Twitter comment about a Squidoo lens I was going to build ended up in the Top 10 Google results for my targeted niche keyword. Then the lens took no.1 spot.
I think that commenting about your lenses, websites and blogs on Twitter adds SEO value. Twitter has a very high PR. Twitter hyperlinks your URLs for you, so it is all too easy.
Sign in (free) and The fourth preseason training video covers setting up and using twitter. It's easy and worth watching. This year's challenge is almost over but the videos and forum will be up all year.
I'm ok if you want to self-promote your Twitter profile in a blog comment for this thread.
I was wondering what twitter was and now I know more. I am sure it will be useful. Thanks for all the helpful hints on getting started. I started to join and came to this page and now I know to go back and do my profile 1st! Thanks a Lot!
Hey – for anyone on a mac…be sure to use twitterific. It allows you to post and receive "tweets" from twitter without having to use your browser. You can tuck it away or hide it and it will make a "tweet" noise when a new twitter post comes in or you can have it pop in when one does. Or you can just keep it up in a corner or in one of your work spaces if you have leopard. I LOVE it. It makes it so much easier to use twitter.
Thanks to all who have!
once we do the automatic sign up, are we on the ezine twitter list?
This makes Twitter life easier. I was very appreciative when I saw your comment and this address on the top on my Twitter account this morning.
I clicked on it and thought, whew!!!
As always EzineArticles is a class act.
I just signed up via Twitter and it only took about two minutes to sign up and configure my EzineArticles account. This is a great idea, thanks!
I'm interested to see if having automatic posts to Twitter will add even more value to Ezine.
What happens if you have different author names for different niches, and you don't want them all blasted to Twitter? Is that upcoming functionality?
All in all, great idea though.
I don't know if I could keep up with even more contacts. Who said Internet Marketing is difficult?!
We already give you the ability to have ONE Twitter account linked up to EACH Profile (Alt-Author) in your account.
Fact: 18 members already have more than Twitter account setup in their EzineArticles account.
