Twive Away! - The New Twitter Tool.
Everyone is Twittering at the moment - even Stephen Fry was doing it while on TV the other day!
But, if you are trying to use Twitter as a way to get more visitors to follow your Tweets and potentially gain benefits from it - then maybe you should look into a new guide that is doing the rounds out there!
It’s called TwiveAway (as in a ‘Twitterised Give Away’) and claims to be able to rapidly increase your numbers of followers - getting your message out there to more and more people literally overnight.
How Does It Work?
Well, it works around the fact that you are going to give something away for something quite simple. This can include almost anything - but to save postage and other expenses, it’s probably easiest to offer an eBook or access to a membership site for free or something along those lines.
All they have to do in return, for example is to forward on your Tweets to a certain number of people. In doing so they are automatically sent your ‘everybody wins’ prize.
Obviously you need to make sure that your prize is perceived as worth winning and is relevant to all. For, example not many people will participate if your prize is an eBook on ‘How To Train Your Gerbil To Dance’ or ‘10 Ways To Re-Use Shoe Laces!’.
Alternatively, if you have got your hands on a great big prize like a new TV or an expensive piece of software - you could offer a ‘prize draw’ where everyone enters but only one person gets the prize!
How Do I Get Started?
You need to sign up for a TwiveAway account to get started, as this will give you access to the software that will follow your competition and your re-Tweeters. It will even randomly pick your winner for a prize draw if that’s what you chose to do!
Go to TwiveAway.com to get started - it’s free!
However, this is only the start - so make sure that you actually tell people about your giveaway either on Twitter itself or on your own websites to make sure you get as much reaction as possible.
After all you want to get more people following your Tweets - so the more people you get started - the more people they will forward your Tweet on to. And this is the chain reaction you are after.
This is where a really good eBook comes into it’s own - if it appeals to everyone, everyone will want to tell their friends about it and the link to your Twitter account will just fly round the offices like a great joke does or a cute puppy picture!
Finally - don’t forget yo make your Twitter account of website it’s best ever, so that all these new visitors have got a reason to stay with you long after the TwiveAway contest!
Good Luck!
