Be VERY careful. Blasting on twitter to an audience that hasn't chosen to follow you is a sure fire way to get banned, damage your reputation or both. This is no different than sending unsolicited SPAM.
Don't risk your online reputation!

Thanks for all the replies. I have decided not to pay to advertise on Twitter based on your opinions.

Hey All,
Great topic. I utilize Twitter everyday. There has been a lot said here about twitter but one thing that I will add is the importance of a relevant audience. Basically who cares if you can reach 25K people if they are not interested in your products or services. A solid Twitter base with target followers is the first step!

I actually do quite a bit of marketing on Twitter. Sure the majority of the followers disregard the tweets but any traffic is good traffic.

I think you have to be very careful using Twitter.
Personally, I love it - but I do a lot of personal socialising on it, a well as posting links to my blogs etc.
There are quite a few people on Twitter who get fed up with the amount of people promoting their online businesses and programs on Twitter, and they just turn a blind eye to them.
It is no good using Twitter just to promote your business. You need to get really involved, get to know a few people and get into a few conversations. That is the only time people will start to show an interest in you.
It's actually really enjoyable when you start using Twitter like this - which is what it was set up for anyway.

I think it depends on what you are marketing as to how succesful twitter is for you. If you are just marketing a business in a box, well thats what everyone is doing so correct zero, zilch, nadda. I only have about 170 followers, but I choose most of them, some did choose me.
I am in a niche, fell in it, stuck in it and love it here, but because of my niche, many click on my links and I have made sales.
Lets say you were selling mororcycle parts. Bikers would click on you. I target my market there. Couple sales a week that I would not have had, and by the way I just started doing this very recently, before I just did and ocassional tweet.

I dont even care about marketing on twitter. When i finnally pointed my browser to a twitter page, I was like, this isn't anything special. Then i left.
Im already stretched thin, i didnt want to have to learn how to dominate twitter too. Right now, personally all its good for is high pr linking to my domain.

I have looked closely at the Twitter thing & I'm not keen on reporting my every move, very similar to social networking ! To me unless your famous or have been on big brother, then you'll struggle to get a big enough audience, following or interested enough, to justify the time spent on this site & in turn the revenue you may generate. There are many other ways to get your business noticed, But Twitter is not for me.

I am beginning to feel the Same way about twitter. Nobody looks at you tweets. I get an average of 100 per minute and that is with only 200 followers. Imagine what it would be like if you have 25k. Like Glenn said, I would use it only for syndication to get you like spidered.

when using tweeter, dont just tweet about your link, you must try to be friend to them. try to reply their tweet, retweet their tweet, and ask them about what they doing just now.if you always tweet about your site or your opportunity they will label you as a spammers, if they would interested in your link they would click it when the first time you promote it. And please provide some good valuable information for them, help them. then they will listen to you.

Hello James Ray. I have not started a twitter account, but was interested in starting one. I was thinking about starting other networking sites like myspace and facebook. In my opinion the more the better. Do you know if there are any restrictions on these types of sites?
