Twitter Testing Was An Epic Win
The other day I was reading through a web forum that discussed some very interesting alternative marketing tricks, and I came across a person who had created a tool for automatically posting messages to Twitter. I wanted to see what this could do when you combined it with my current Twitter marketing strategy.
In a word, wow.
At this time I won't divulge the actual name of the tool, since it has been upgraded and I will be testing out the newer application soon. Probably today, actually.
In a nutshell, my strategy includes one CPC link that earns $.10 per click. Now, when I post this link, I normally make $1-$3 each time. Well, with the autoposter, I had it set to go off every two minutes. By the time I ended the test at 11 PM CDT, I had made $67.50. Not bad, eh?
Well, I didn't want to lose my Twitter account, so I went back and deleted all of the posts from my timeline. I especially had to do this because I used my main Twitter account. Probably not the best move.
Today I have shifted the tool to post to another, more appropriate niche-related account at a somewhat slower rate. As of right now, I'm sitting at $28.20 for the day. And yes, it's still climbing.
I can't wait to test the new tool, which should allow me to rotate text, rotate accounts, and basically do a better job in a better, less spammy way.
I apologize to my followers for being brutalized by my test. Hey, at least I'm sharing what I do to make money with you...you can join the bandwagon!
Anyway, I had to treat myself to some sushi today. It's a very rare treat for me. And since I'm such a sushi noob, I thought it would be good to try to be like John Chow and get a pic. Unfortunately, my stupid cell phone camera doesn't auto-save pictures, so that means I'll have to go order the same thing again some day. Hmm...not a bad idea!

How to Use Squidoo to Generate Referrals
So, I'm checking out the stats of my latest Squidoo lens which talks about my current method for making money on Twitter, and I'm noticing that for once I may have done something right.
For one thing, it seems to be getting pretty decent amounts of traffic from search engines, specifically yahoo. Granted, it's not a metric ton of traffic, but it's not bad compared to my other lenses (check out the section in my sidebar that talks about the Sugarbuzz network for links). By not bad I mean it's blowing them away.
So anyway, other than creating a decent looking lens with some pretty effective keywords, I've included a couple of my referral links for the programs that I discuss in the lens. And wouldn't you know it, the more traffic that comes to the lens, the more my affiliate referrals grow. Now if only they would get busy and put that method to work! :D
So what have I learned? Using Squidoo can be an effective way to generate referrals. And referrals are worth their weight in gold. Or cash, if you prefer.

Breaking news? Yes. Linkbait? Perhaps...
