It's Not To Late To Get Big On Twitter

It’s Not To Late To Get Big On Twitter

in Marketing, Tools by Thomas Skavhellen on January 14th, 20095 Comments

Twitter has been around for a little over a year already and 2008 has really been the year for Twitter. It has become a tool for traffic and marketing but also to keep connected to friends and family. Many people do like me, they use one account for business and one for private. It’s almost impossible to track all the conversations on my business account but on my private it’s easy and fun.

Many people I’ve talked to think it’s to late to jump on the Twitter train. That it is filled with users marketers and people that try to sell you stuff and spam you. I don’t blame them, there is so much spam coming from some of the users and Twitter is working hard to kick off the black hat marketers that wants to build fast and hard. Just yesterday I tried to follow some of the people that follows me, but many of them where blocked for climbing to fast. He he.. stupid newbies.

Anyhow, It’s not to late to get big on Twitter. Twitterholic keeping track of who is big and who is not on Twitter and if you look at it with my eyes, a Norwegian Viking, It’s not that hard to be the biggest Twitter user in all of Norway. The Kid Tech Guru wrote a blog post last month about the Top 3 Twitter users from every contry in the world making the biggest Twitter user in Norway the net browser Opera with 1,749 followers.

If you live in the states you have some hard work to do to get the biggest on Twitter. You need to beat the President himself, Barack Obama with his 149.000 followers.

So when will you be big on Twitter? And will you black hat yourself to the top or get people to follow with a friendly giving smile?

I’ll try the last one! Please add me to Twitter! *Friendly Giving Smile* and help a Norwegian Viking to be the biggest Twitter user in Norway :-P

Thomas,

As usual that was a wonderfully educative post. Man, this info should be in Garry Parkes’ Profit Pulling Platform. It is highly topical, full of thought and so well written – even for a marauding Norwegian Viking. I am liking your stuff a lot Thomas and this branding that you are doing is excellent.

Very, very impressive mate!

Ok, the race is on for the throne, my fellow Viking. :)

Hi Thomas
nice black board (heading image) Are you creating your own images?

thanks for your info about Twitter. I have almost no used twitter. But I may do it someday. I dont think it is important for me to use it right now. There are many other things to do. (But when I login I will try to remember to add you)

All the best

Hi Thomas,

Really interesting stuff that Thomas. Bookmarked that Twitterholic site. Go for it man and get the number one spot in Norway. I’m actually going to do a video on using Twitter to celebrate when I get 1000 followers which looks as though it will be very soon.

To reiterate what Gary S above said. Your always welcome to write for the Profit Pulling Project newsletter. I notice from my records you offered before Christmas and I emailed you. It’s not too late to get on-board!!

Garry,
