It’s a fact that in today’s world Twitter has a special place in people’s hearts who use it not only for communicating, but also for making money (directly). Speaking of making more money, the micro blogging phenomenon has opened up new moneymaking opportunities for the truly resourceful, so here’s a quick tutorial on how to make money using Twitter.
1. First thing to consider is that you can use your huge base of followers to make money. What does it mean? If you have privileged information then you can charge people for accessing your tweets — apparently there are some newspapers that charge a certain sum of money for that, so if you are a blogger, who has sensitive information on online shopping deals, you can sell that information.
2. Sell your Twitter knowledge. If you already have a Twitter account, you can be the guy behind those companies trying to make their foray into social media. Tweeting for companies is a fantastic way to make more money; if you are good at tweeting their voice to the world, they’ll probably pay you for that so why not make an extra buck with something that you’re good at?
3. Affiliate marketing is another interesting idea to make money using Twitter. You can always include aff links within your tweets, and if you have a large user base to follow you, at some point you may end up actually selling the product you’re promoting. Affiliate marketing is a great way to be paid for tweeting and from what we’re hearing, more and more people are using it to make money. Just make sure your followers won’t report you for spam, so keep it to reasonable levels …
4. If you are good with coding stuff then you can probably create Twitter applications that you’ll charge money for. All you need is a fantastic idea, because as you know good Twitter applications sell and they sell for quite some money. Twitter apps, Twitter tools, everything work as long as they are needed by the end user so better identify the niches and get yourself writing code right now.
5. Sponsored tweets. There are certain music stores that pay Twitter users to promote their music with their messages. There are also websites that pay users to send “sponsored tweets”. They are all measured and you’ll probably get paid for the action your fans take on them. Sounds like a great way to enhance your monthly income by tweeting to your friends, but keep in mind that not everyone tolerates such behaviors — just don’t be too greedy (to be read as spammy).
6. You can also start a Twitter consulting service, there are lots of things that can be done on Twitter that people are not simply aware of. You can ask money for adding people on your friend list and then provide them with important tips and information on how to utilize Twitter better. Most of the new users are dying to try out the latest features of the micro blogging website and you can really help them in this fashion.
