Is there money to made from twitter?. There has been so much hype about twitter I decided it was time to a test. So just a few facts first, at the time of the test my list was 6500 not to big and not to small. But all targeted followers within my internet marketing niche. Anyway lets get down to it.

The test I decided was a simple one. Tweet an affiliate link out. Don’t put the link anywhere else, just on twitter. I tweeted it just six times, this would help cover all time zones. what I wrote was @ Matt Bacak and Shawn Casey together, what more could you want? to make money on line. Go here http://www.ipcgold.com/ad/2079/CD74819.

After the six tweets I had 36 clicks and no sales, which is a click rate of 0.005%. Oh yeah it was also done on a Saturday night . So what does this mean?

That Twitter is hit and miss, its not a precise tool. Its not to be treated as a list, more like an ad in a supermarket or a newspaper. I prefer list marketing but how so ever I do have a targeted followers. So to be honest I would have expected a bigger reaction. So that did not happen lets look at some reasons why not.

1. its Saturday night everyone is out.

2. No one interested in the product. Matt and Shawn are two of the greats in internet Marketing. So that doesn’t make sense.

The last reason is people have so many tweets coming across their screens, that there is no way they can read them all. I get over 1200 tweets a minute so maybe they just can’t read them all. Solution tweet like hell. Not just six, perhaps six every hour. Read the rest of this entry
