    Twitter is used to market yourself as a professional. So first off, create an account and start following people in your target niche. Maybe you can pace yourself to follow 400 people a day. Second, send various updates in a good time interval (say 3 or 4 hours). You can use Socialoomph to schedule your tweets. Various means from personal, sometimes useless, to informative such as your blog posts. Let your followers feels that they are following a real live person and not a marketing robot. Retweet some interesting updates from your followers from time to time and don't forget to respond to them. Hope you found this helpful ;)

    Twitter can be a extremely quick way of marketing your website or just making use of affiliate advertising. Although it is extremely easy to get banned at times, on my first twitter advertising account i overstretched the bot i was using and go banned after getting 2k followers in a couple of days.

    Twitter is a very useful tool for marketing your business. It works well especially if you actually own your product. Usually digital products aren't good but depending on what they are, you might have a good chance in making some connections on Twitter. Physical products are good. You can also get an idea about age and sex from looking at the pictures. So you can target to a certain degree.

    Personally, I do not use bots for my following. I find it risky. I find this freelancer I'm working with great. :)

    Set up your twitter account and tweet relevant and useful information. It also helps to participate and reply to your followers tweets.

    I find the best way to use twitter is for finding people in your market you can network with as well as for finding out what the people in your market are doing. If you can combine meeting new people and learning new methods that work from them, Twitter can become a gold mine for you.

    You might actually want to take a look at Twitter's new Terms of Service. Your account on Twitter will most likely be banned if you're going to use a bot to post your updates.

    Yugo,

    Make sure to setup an account and tweet relevant info that your followers would want to read. Also don't forget to include a link to your site or even better a relevant page on your site.

    I am using twitter for a while and found it quite helpful in bringing traffic to the website. I also found that evey organization big or small is having a official account on the twitter, so twitter now has become the need of the people online to keep updated.

    You can reach the visitors and keep them updated at the glance. Twitter has bought great revolutions to the social bookmarking sites.

    Twitter is very helpful for any business as it give information about customer thoughts and wishes. When you open an account on Twitter just check what people are writing, reply on their posts if your product can be helpful for them. But it is important to talk on twitter, but not just postthe same information all the time! :)
