Oh ja, Twitter’s not going anywhere!
Borrowed from ZNet Blogs
In response to a guest post I did over at Search Engine People, a few people expressed opinions that Twitter is a flash-in-the-pan and won’t stick around like Google.
As Barry Welford rightly pointed out: We remember very clearly that when Google was new it was heralded as a flash-in-the-pan too. But I knew instinctively (OK let’s call it women’s intuition here) that Google was going to be big. I predicted it at the time, but sadly there are none of my web pages around from that time to prove it.
I’m predicting that Twitter will be even bigger than Google. NOTE TO TWITTER ADMIN: get ready for what’s coming now. You need to fix yourselves up so you can cope with the traffic and get some serious search algos in place. Don’t tell us that we didn’t warn you!
Just take a look at these Twitter stats. And it’s still really early days yet.
Your social media activity can make or break your business…
This is not an exaggeration.
It hasn’t always been the case but it is now. Using social media sites can:
- Determine how far you reach online
- Allow you to steer how your brand develops
- Provide you with a tool to enhance your reputation
- Provide damage control if you have any slip ups that negatively affect your reputation
- Bring traffic to your website
- Provide you with an online business learning resource whatever your niche happens to be
- Help you see what’s the best way to develop your business
Actually, there’s more but this is a great start as you can see. Stick with me and I’ll show you the ropes. In the coming weeks you’ll see a wide array of social media resources appear on these pages. Most of them free, and all of them super-useful.
