Whether you want to generate more traffic to your site or you want to increase your social relationships, Twitting is a fun and exciting activity that you can quickly master and use to achieve your goals. We already know that Twitter keeps people connected at all times. Some people send tweets regularly (every day) and others only a few times a week. Since you are planning on using Twitter to build your IM business the latter is the best option for you. That leads us to our first tool, Future Tweets. This works great if you aren?t able to send important tweets because you have other commitments. It only takes a few minutes to set up and you can use to automatically post your prepared tweets. It is very important that you don?t use this tool to auto spam your account with worthless information and constant offers. That will only lose you followers. Here is an example of proper ways to use this tool would be to remind your followers of upcoming seminars or meetings, maybe even let them know about products and offers to help build a buzz. You can find out more about Future Tweets here: http://futuretweets.com Sharing pictures and product images is also possible with Twitter by using the tool Twitpic. When you make new contacts there may come a time when you want to share some of your pictures with them so that they can get to know you and your business better. Once you?ve created your Twitpic account you can upload your pictures and quickly post them on Twitter. Another great thing about this tool is that it is also compatible with mobile devices which make it easier to share pictures from your mobile device. You can find out more about Twitpic here: http://twitpic.com If you are using Wordpress for your blog, there are quite a few tools that you can use to automate your Twitter activities from inside your dashboard including: TweetThis plug-in - It will encourage your visitors to tweet your blog post. TweetThis also adds a Twitter link in every blog post you create plus gives you the ability to shorten your blog post URL to fit the 140-character limit. TweetMeme button - Helps other people to easily retweet your post on Twitter and it also shows a count of how many times your blog post has been retweeted. Twitter Tools - This plug-in integrates your blog with Twitter by pulling all your tweets into the side bar of your blog. You can also use it to post new tweets from inside your WordPress blog. You can find these and a whole slew of other tools specifically for wordpress by doing a search for " Twitter Wordpress plug-in" Now let's talk about Twollo. It is another Twitter tool that you can use to find people you want to follow. Just type in the subject or topic that interests you and the tool will find people who are talking about the same thing and automatically follows them for you. And the list goes on. I could literally list hundreds of tools that work with Twitter for you, but then we would be stuck on this lesson for days, so instead I am going to suggest that you do a little home work after you are done reading this lesson. All you have to do is open up your favorite search engine and do a search for "Twitter tools, plug ins and add-ons" you will find more that enough to meet your needs. You can narrow your search even more if you are looking for something more specific. For instance I did a search for "Twitter tools business" while I was writing this lesson and came across some that I didn't know about. Before we close this lesson I do want to tell you about one more tool that you can use to find out who you are following that isn't following you back. It's Tweepler and all you have to do is type in your Twitter username and password and it will give you detailed list of who is following you and who you are following. It also has a very nice point and click interface, so that you can quickly sort through your peeps. It does take it a few minutes to populate the list but it is well worth the wait. You can find it here: http://tweepler.com So, go do your homework and find some Twitter Tools that will work in your niche and start using them to make new contacts, automate your posts and promote your site even better with Twitter!
