Twitter Traffic? Good for Adsense?

Discussion in 'Twitter' started by caleb34, Apr 17, 2009.

    I started an account on twitter. I have almost 1000 followers on twitter and received 150 visits to my blog that displays funny videos. The purpose of this blog is the adsense ads which usually convert around 5% ctr, but I have not had any clicks whatsoever. Is Twitter traffic not good for adsense, or do I just need to re optimize my site for twitter. Another thing that I have been doing is sending people only to the post with the video instead of the whole blog. Maybe this is keeping people from staying on the site longer? any advice?

    Twitter traffic entirely depends on No. of followers you have and that are too genuine users, updates regularly on twitter almost everyday.
    Once you get that , then traffic becomes constant and that's a great thing if you achieve, because there isn't any thing like constant everyday's traffic.

    From my experience, followers usually visit but don't click. But keep on trying. Once in a while, they might click also. What's important is you get traffic to your sites.

    Twitter trafic is good, you can get some click from your followers by changing a bit on your ads (maybe you shall consider image ads since this is more suitable for video site). However, i have to say that the best traffic shall come from search engine

    I don't think that twitter can provide with a good visitors since most of the users also have there own site. They are not going to click.

    no specific traffics will good for adsense. Google adsense need traffics with ads clicking. I am getting thousands traffics but no good clicks so this traffics are not good for me. I have got good traffics from twitter's user name "forumssfinances" but no revenue. revenue is need for adsense so try to get lot of revenues and clicking only if you want to earn money.

    Hmm.. I guess,, most of the twitter users own websites.. so, they had an idea of what adsense is.. and pretty hard to get clicks from those..

    I've been getting quite an amount of traffic from Twitter and via Youtube (where I've also sent twitter followers) I haven't noticed any increase in adsense revenu either. I've managed to get several people a day to sign up to my Aweber list, but Adsense is not making me a fortune :)

    Twitter traffic is best for building email lists. I usually send twitter traffic to my email capture pages.

    I have yet to see conversions from my twitter traffic. As mentioned, people also have their own website to promote via twitter. They know the rules on clicking adsense. I guess Twitter is good for building traffic but as for conversion, don't count on it too much.

    In my experience, Twitter has been pretty pointless when it comes to getting a conversion. I sent upwards of a 117 people to my website yesterday, all Twitter Traffic, and not ONE single conversion. I went to a competitor site in my niche, posted a bulletin there, and got less than 20 visitors BUT 1 conversion!

    My intellect tells me: Twitter is a GREAT source of traffic. The reality I am experiencing tells me: Twitter is NOT a great source of CONVERTING traffic.

    Now overall, my opinion is: Any amount of traffic, whether it be abundant or scarce, is only good if it is traffic from people who either have the problem to the solution you're offering or are interested in what you are selling. If you are driving 100's of 1000's of visitors to your site and they're all bouncing, what is the point?

    Our primary main objective is to get a "conversion" on our websites, isn't it?

    Your adsence CTR will be low from those repeated visitors.
