Is Twitter a spamfest?

or

Is Twitter a effective Marketing Machine?

I personally got only a couple hundred followers on my personal account in the last month, however these are quality people that I enjoy chatting with.

I am testing out quality vs quantity with Twitter (yeah I know there are people on both sides)

For my personal twitter account ‘mukulverma‘ (Follow me for quality) against my Video Marketing Intensive Twitter account (videomarketingi).  Go and Follw both!!!

What am I looking for in Quality vs Quantity?

For Quality

- Following people I would be interested in what they have to say.

For Quantity

- You follow me, I will follow you.

- You are in my industry, related industry, internet marketing or you may have people who want my Video Marketing service

- You dont follow me, I will unfollow you (I hate this rule, but this is a test)

The Goal

1. I would like to see how fast I can get to 10,000 followers.  In the first couple hours, I already have 108 new followers (I got this by following like 300 people)

2. To see the traffic and sales from using Twitter as a #s game (Quantity)

Anyone up for a friendly competition on how to grow our Twitter list.

I will keep you updated on my test here.

Cheers,

Mukul

PS – 2 more followers, I will let you know if #s matters or quality

I will discuss interesting topics to me from internet marketing, sports, phones,books,  local events or whatever else comes by.  I am not a writer, so if I mix up words or forget words, it is about the content, not the spelling. I would like to keep this unedited.  There is a rule in my company that nothing I write is allowed out without someone else editing it, well this blog is the exception.

I am about to start on creating traffic generation for one of my websites. My January goal was to increase in by 1000 additional visitors a month on going.

Here is the traffic method I am going to using in a nuthshell.

1. Finding Niches industry websites with a market for my service.

2. Social Bookmarking - Build awareness for the website using Digg, Stumble and so on.

3. Facebook Marketing – One of my outsource employee got 90 people joined to our Facebook group in like 2 days, we are going to duplicate her method.  What she did was….

- Create a Facebook Fanpage

- Invited all of our contacts on Facebook

- Invite people with similar interests on Facebook

4. Be involved in Twitter conversations around the websites topic

5. Create a Video, load it on You Tube and Flickr video and bookmark these websites

I would repeat all these steps for atleast 3-6 pages on my website (or product or service)

Well time to get to working on it, please leave your comment below on your favorite traffic method.

Cheers,

Mukul
