    Yes, twitter is good for gaining quality traffic (few months or years) back then. But today, twitter spamming is rampant. (including me) hehe.. That's some artists and popular icons have stopped using twitter. But its still good up to this moment but not as good as it was before.

    For most people wanting to promote a site Twitter is a waste of time... not because there is anything inherently wrong with Twitter itself... but because the people using it to promote sites don't understand "how" to use it to promote their site. They don't get the fact that you do NOT want to spam links to your site. They don't understand that only 1 of every 100 or more Tweets should be used to promote their site. They end up alienating all of their followers by spamming self promoting Tweets.

    twitter is the spam-haven of them all. All you'll find there is links. Nonetheless if you've got a lot of genuine followers you can monetize your account quickly and make considerable amounts.

    Twiiter can be used to generate great amounts of traffic to your website, provided:

    1. You develop an excellent follwer base
    2. Constantly send out links & updates people to check
    3. Retweet valuable information

    I do get spikes in traffic from twitter. I auto-post the latest articles from my article directory as well as offer simple SEO and marketing tips to my readers. I am going to stick with it I think.

    Twitter in the right hands IS GREAT, however i can see how other business owners with little knowledge cannot get it working for them. I have a huge network on their and Twitter added to my other networks makes GREAT BUSINESS SENSE.

    We give away free Twitter advice to any charities, so if you fall into this category please feel free to PM for more information.

    Hope this helps you all.

    I believe twitter is good, but it depends on the site your trying to market. Remember, twitter is supposed to be socially appealing so if your site is about something that is extremely boring and not a good source of social vibe than its going to take you more work for traffic. What companies need to keep in mind is their business goal, a lot of individuals get carried away with social networks and web 3.0, there is a good post on this here -> utahseopros.com/social-media-is-a-magnet-control-it | Just make sure to manage your time properly and do not forget about what is going to keep a visitor on your site. Good Luck!*!* :cool:

    Seo, blakbelt tells the truth about the tons, although, if you don't get traffic - you would not be making any earnings. So due to big number of twitter users, I'd say that it is worth a sin.
