Think Twitter is just for following your favorite celebrities and getting updated with the daily news? Then you’ve got lots of catching up to do. This very simple but hugely popular social networking site is actually a treasure trove of Social Media Marketing (SMM) opportunities just waiting to be explored by you. SMM Specialists all over the world have been using Twitter for quite a long time to get people to notice their sites and therefore create demand for their products and services.
Not using Twitter to compete in the market is virtually shooting yourself in the foot just because you can’t devote time to learn SMM. If you don’t want to be left behind in this new marketing battlefield, hire an SMM Specialist now and apply the following Twitter SMM strategies:
Don’t Fake It – Forget it if you’re merely planning on spamming your way to success because this old textbook trick won’t get you anything on Twitter. If you just post 20 links to your website a day, no one will follow you and your efforts will be futile. Members like following real people who talk about their real lives on Twitter. This means that your marketing strategy should involve talking about real events in your life that are somehow connected to the products or services you’re selling.
For example, if you have a website about wines, you can make people check out your tweeted link by saying that you’ve just been to an amazing wine-tasting event in California where a few celebrities were present. Your followers can then click on your link to go to your website’s blog, and see video or pictures about it. This way, people will know you’re a real person who just happens to have a deep interest in and a lively business of wines. This gives you instant credibility with your followers, and soon, word will spread about your website, products and services.
Try to Go Viral – Twitter is one of the best platforms to go viral. An essential element of viral marketing is creating ads or marketing strategies that are fun, exciting and usually humorous. For example, if you have a website that sells camping gear, how about creating a funny video about a Bigfoot attack on some campers just because the creature wants to steal their cool and comfy tent? You can tweet about it in a simple intriguing way: “Bigfoot attacks campers in Wyoming.” The amount of attention and response you’ll get from such an advertisement will be so strong that your followers will not only explore your website, they’ll also spread word about your video themselves, launching it to viral status.
Don’t be a One-Trick Pony – The important thing about Twitter SMM is to mix it up. From time to time, try direct advertisements that immediately present your website, product or service to your followers. This strategy works better if you have a lot of followers, so try to do more creative stuff first before hard selling to increase your pool of potential customers.
Use your Expertise and Recommend – If you know your business well, recommending the right type of products or services on Twitter would be an easy strategy for you. As always, you should try to humanize your tweets and make them amplify your purpose of helping others rather than selling. Point out specific things that only experts in the industry would know or consider, and many of your followers should follow your links to your website.
Sponsor a Contest – People love freebies and prizes. Simple contests with affordable prizes can suck a lot of people into your tweets, into your website, and finally into the products or services you’re offering. Here are two ways by which you can run a Twitter contest:
Feedback: For example, “What new features would you like our product / service to have? Be among the first 10 respondents and win a prize!”
Brand Awareness: For example, “Tell us why you like our product/service in 140 characters and win a prize! Don’t forget to put a hash-tag (#IloveProductX) on your answer!”
Simple SMM Twitter strategies like these will increase your website’s viewership exponentially. Since these strategies require time, devotion and expertise, it’s advisable you hire an SMM Specialist to work with you to apply these more effectively. Start tweeting now and rake in cash while growing your business!
