Making Money with Twitter

Twitter is used by many affiliates to promote their own website or that of advertisers. Earning money via Twitter cannot be realized instantly. Just like building a good website, it takes time and effort to gain followers.

The first step is to choose at least a good topic. You can offer some kind of 'service' to your followers, for example 'the best bargains' or 'last minute offers'. You just have to ask yourself how many people want to be kept informed in this way via Twitter.

Another way is to choose a general topic that many people are interested in and that you as an affiliate have an affinity with. For example, start a Twitter account about making money online. People interested in this subject will then start following you, Retweet your content and potentially 'tag' you in their own outbound tweets thus creating even more followers

Rule No 1: Make your Twitter profile and your tweets attractive!

Before you even get started looking for a suitable way to make money with Twitter, I'd recommend 'pimping' your profile first. Often, earning money with Twitter and the attractiveness of your profile and tweets are inextricably linked. The explanation of this is simple: are your tweets funny or interesting, do you have more followers (and more chance of income).

But how do you make your Twitter profile attractive? Below are some tips:

• Use your real name!
• Use a real photo.
• Either put one word in your biography, or make sure to mention some of your intentions and characteristics that are clearly visble & understandable. What do you want people to know about you? What do you think would be interesting for potential followers to know about you? Also find out what your perfect target group is (eg. Fellow Entrepeneurs)!
• Add a URL (link), if necessary to a page where you can find a more extensive profile of yourself, such as your Blog.
• Make a background your own. In other words, develop a brand to let people associate a certain pattern, image or colour with you to make your profile stand out.
• Post or schedule a number of tweets regularly (every day).
• Address your followers (personally) and maintain contact with your followers (engagement). Also use the word 'you' more often than 'me'. This will make your followers feel more personally addressed. Your profile will therefore look more inviting.
• Do it slightly differently (read: better) than others in your position.

Tweet with Direct Affiliate Links

Tweet to your audience with direct affiliate links. You earn money if someone buys a product or uses a service through the link in your tweet. For example, you tweet about a holiday offer, someone comes to a website via your tweet and link and books the holiday. You will then receive a percentage of this. Or, for example, someone buys a Clickbank product through a tweet and you have signed up through their partner program.

Sponsored Tweets

It may come as a complete surprise, but you can actually directly approcah and ask companies for money for one of your tweets. All you have to do is go to the SponsoredTweets site and find sponsors there who will pay you to tweet about their products. The best thing: you have a say in the amount you earn per tweet.

This operates on a  'per click' basis, so every time someone clicks on the ad you tweet you are paid! You can choose these ads from a list of available ads, which is updated regularly. Note: You must have at least 50 followers, 100 tweets and an account that is at least 60 days old to sign up for this service!

Incidentally, make sure you are careful when posting your other tweets. If you show a lot of anti-social language or extreme political views in your tweets, sponsors will not hesitate to penalise you.

Hold a Twitter Contest

Everyone loves a competition! Something you can make everyone happy with is a prize. This gives people confirmation of their positive self-image. As a Twitter account owner or influencer you can use this. For example, try to make a deal with a local company that would like some publicity. Suggest that you run a contest on Twitter and that you get paid a percentage of their sales. At very least a simple 'RT/Follow' Competition will gain you more followers which equals...more potential sales further down the line!

How much can you earn with Twitter?

What you can earn with Twitter depends entirely on the number of followers you have, but also how relevant your tweets are. It is also important that good advertisers are active in your chosen niche.

Twitter is a less direct medium than, for example, Facebook. In addition, Twitter is very accessible, which means that the attention of a tweet is generally lower than, for example, a message on Facebook. So you also need more followers to achieve the same result.

What all successful Twitter affiliates have in common is that they know how to hit the right chord with their audience and that they work hard for it. What you often see is that they use Twitter as an extra promotional tool .

For example, they maintain a blog that they use to make money with affiliate marketing. They tweet when they have written a new piece and about other topics related to their blog. From time to time they also tweet with an affiliate link from an advertiser.

Final Tips for using Twitter successfully

- Follow other relevant accounts, they will often follow you back.
- Ask another popular Twitter account to promote your account (whether or not for a fee).
- Retweet messages from others regularly. as it will lead to regular retweets of your messages.
- Use Twitter tools such as Tweetdeck to run multiple accounts and manage tweets.
- Many people Twitter with their mobile phone, so check that the advertiser you want to promote supports mobile traffic.

Sure enough, social media can drive traffic to our websites, but it’s getting harder and harder all the time. For one thing, there’s more competition for people’s attention.

What's the difference between solo ads and banner ads?

To put it simply, solo ads are clicks from a series of email blasts or campaigns. You can buy a certain number of clicks from different solo ad sellers such as Udimi.

People receive the email about your offer (email swipe), if they like what they read, they click. When a unique person clicks, which is a solo ad click, they will be redirected to your optin page, sales page or offer.

They are usually sent to a press page so you can compile an email list. Some solo ad sellers direct to a sales page or article, but not many, as it is not recommended as it's always better to capture the leads on your own list and sell them in a good email sequence or contact them personally thereafter.

Solo ads are most commonly used to promote business opportunities, online offers, work from home, weight loss, nutrition, personal development and now Cryptocurrency offers and it is because Solo ads are a highly scalable PPC (Pay Per Click) traffic source. They differ from other bureaucratic and intensive self-service PPC networks like Facebook ads and Google Adwords, With Solo ads there is no bureaucracy and no restrictions!

Banner ads and traditional Pay Per Click sources are painfully slow. The first obstacle you run into is the endless hoops you have to jump through to get your listing on the network and approved by the various moderators, which can take weeks, not days or hours.

Banner ads are based on images rather than text and are a popular form of website advertising. The purpose of banner ads is to promote a brand and / or get visitors from the host website to the advertiser's website.

As you can see in the above, Solo ads are very targeted, since the person receiving the email is someone who has asked for information or subscribed to a newsletter (opted-in) to receive those offers versus banner ads which are not very targeted - you can get tons of useless 'bot' clicks, so you need to generate many more numbers in banner ads to get what you might get in one small solo ad.



Solo advertising campaigns are delivered to 'opt-in' recipients with a high willingness to buy. It is a well-known scientific fact that people make buying decisions with their emotion and justify with logic. And while most prospects with traditional PPC sources are sceptical and analytical ...

In summary, Solo ads are a double-edged sword. They may be the best thing that ever happened to your online business. But a word of warning, if you're not careful, you can also easily lose thousands of dollars in fake clicks!

That said, solo ads are a really great way to both pay for high target traffic and sell your list to other marketers to make additional income. Solo ads are the easiest way to build your own list. And they should be a major starting point for your list building efforts.
