For professional Twitter marketers, the use of automation tools has become almost commonplace. Some of these twitter auto tools are better than others. However, none of these tools allow you to perform many tasks that are becoming more and more important in the twitter community. To get extra exposure and make sure that your Twitter brand gets noticed you want others to tweet about you and you also want to be listed in Twitter Lists many times. Auto-Follow was huge and Twitter is doing what it can to slow down and eventually stop this spam follow tactic using it’s own API’s and other developer tools.  These are just a couple of reasons that many professional twitter marketers are now turning to high end human outsourcing web sites for better control over their twitter promotion and a much more successful promotion all together.

Using real people to complete Twitter tasks can make boosting your twitter popularity a snap. If you only use paid promotion to get a new account started it really makes a big difference when you have people complete the same tasks you could use software for because it looks natural.  If you use an automation software to build up a new Twitter account, as you may have noticed, the growth of the account stops once you stop using the software. The main reason for this is the fact that your account is full of “fake” or “dummy” accounts that follow you and the content on your twitter account is most likely looking spammy at this point. If you take the time to build a real account with real people you are much more likely to continue to grow as their friends notice their tweets about you and see you in their follow list. If you are going to have messages automated about your twitter account then why not have real people send these tweets and let them write the message themselves?  This will also help build a trusted authority relationship with your twitter account that simply cannot be matched by using twitter automation software.

You will find many websites that allow internet marketers to outsource work. If you are going to pursue your twitter success using one of these sources we highly suggest using our friends at WebeServe to build a powerful twitter campaign.  You can use there easy to use system to setup multiple tasks that you get to define. Make one or as many different tasks to be done by the workers in this community and you can set your own price! This website is new, but is offering a huge value to marketers who are ready to take their campaign management to the next level using the power of outsourcing.

Twitter Stomps Auto Follow

Category : Featured, My Twitter Tactics, Twitter Apps, Twitter Followers

Twitter-Kills-Auto-FollowIt is no surprise, Twitter made it clear that they were going to do away with all the sites that offered an auto follow twitter service. The fact is that they have no way of truly getting rid of every site that offers such a service.  So what twitter has done is changed their TOS and is now only allowing websites that offer twitter following managment tools who abide by these new TOS terms to use the Twitter Oauth service.  This means that if a site wants to use the twitter login authentication process for its users they have to abide by the twitter Terms Of Service.

For some sites, they will simply continue to offer the same auto-follow service that they always have, but for the users of this service, you will have to have a new login and then store your twitter credentials on their website for future use.   This is looked at as a security risk to many, however most of the early twitter services all operated on this basis.  This is a change that needed to come very soon, as more and more users were using services to make their accounts look more popular than they actually were. The twitter autofollow also lead to many spam accounts that took away from the value of the whole site and Twitters integrity.

You will notice at many of the most popular services that used to offer an auto follow service, that these features have been removed altogether or now you must single click on every user you wish to follow.  These services are still very valid and useful for those who wish to grow their twitter account. Most of these twitter services allow you to search for people in ways that you cannot within the Twitter website.  This alone can be worth using these third party twitter services to make sure that you find new and relevant tweeps to follow.  If you are working a marketing system using twitter, finding people that have similar interests to your topic or niche is a must, so these services can offer Internet marketers a lot of value in this field.

So moving forward without auto-follow on twitter may seem like a drag to some, but it is what it is.  Now, moving forward some may have to change their mass follow strategy or simply do it the old fashioned way, one click at a time!

New Tweet Scheduler – Dynamic Tweet

Category : Automate Your Twitter Messages, Free Twitter Stuff, My Twitter Tactics, Twitter Apps

Are you looking for a way to automate your twitter messages?

There have been more than one site pop up that offers a service that allows users to schedule tweets to come out in advance.  These can be a great way for busy people to keep their updates coming, even when they don’t have time to post a new tweet themselves.  It seems that many of the early tweet schedulers have gone to a paid  service, which is fine. However, if you are looking for a tweet scheduler that is still free, we just ran across a new one and wanted to share it with the My Twitter Tactics readers.

The site we are talking about is Dynamic Tweets

You can use this service to setup future tweets and then you can get on to more important parts of your day without having to wonder if you are keeping your twitter account active.  Some will never use services like this, but some live and die by them.  So if you have never used a twitter scheduler, check this one and out and you may be pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and find it to be one of those must have twitter tools for you.

Get More Twitter Followers With Your Own Twitter List

Category : My Twitter Tactics, Twitter Followers, Twitter News

twitter-listWell here at My Twitter Tactics we are always trying to bring twitter news and of course twitter tips and tactics to our readers. We know we are a little late on this one, but we wanted to address the new twitter “list” feature all the same.  We are not sure if twitter will keep the Twitter List around forever, for right now it is still in beta and they are looking for as much feedback as they can get to see if users are interested in it becoming a permanent fixture on the site or not.

So, if you like this new feature you should make sure to have your voice heard and chime in on the site to let the owners know that you want it to stay.  If not let em know all the same, twitter is a community based site and your voice does count!

What Is The Twitter List?

The twitter list is nothing more than a group on twitter.  You can create a new twitter list from your account and add who ever you like to it, this seems to be a new way to create miniature focus groups on your account.  This new feature adopts the same “one way follow” ability that twitter has created with there original site.  You get a new extension type web address that includes the name of your group in the address to keep it juicy for the search engines.  People can follow your list without being invited, unless you mark it as private, then you get total control over who is there and who is not.

How Do I Get More Follower By Making A Twitter List

OK..OK you may not get more followers exactly, but this new feature definitely gives you an opportunity to get more people viewing your tweets and raises your syndication power on the twitter site and off.  By this we believe you can use this new tool to assist in the growth of your twitter following to an astronomical amount.

Want even more twitter followers?
