    I am interested in tweeter or twitter (I have seen it spelled both ways) it seems like it might be better than promoting my site via myspace, however I need some information

    Myspace has not been helpful because obtaining friends is the method of getting traffic. First I am not a social butterfly so obtaining friends has been hard. There seems to be no efficient way to get traffic so I have spent more time witting content content and submitting to articles to article directories/

    I read the positive things said about Tweeter and it may be beneficial to get traffic from but I don't know how to get traffic to Tweeter. I want to know that before opening an account.
    Would someone please explain how I can get traffic to my Tweeter account and how to get that traffic to my website so I can make an informed decision on this. I also want to know the correct name for Tweeter or Twitter.

    I have a stumbleupon account but don't know how to use it to get traffic. Please explain what you are doing to get traffic.

    You stumble your own site. Add a review for each page or post. If other stumblers like it then you will get loads of traffic. I did a post on 10 uses for toothpaste that got 42,000 hits from stumbleupon. the easist way is to use the toolbar. But like any social service it works best if you participate. I love stumbling new sites so i use it often. And i submit new sites all the time.

    To get traffic from stumble upon, first you need to work on your profile. Increase you subscription, stumble others post, post reviews, enhance your friend list. Then stumble yours. Once you get identity it will help you to promote your blog or site easily.

    If you want traffic from Twitter and Stumble you need to have a lot of followers and friends.

    Both are based on the concept of viral marketing so you need some adamant users who are nut cases about promoting on these sites. You get traffic by piggy backing on other peoples friends and followers.
