Well I want to learn "how to" link to the right sites. It sound like my visit would benefit me and my seo knowledge base. My visit has benefited me. Hopefully, I can add something of value to the “Twitter Can Be Useful” conversation. Kyle, I agree with you if the right people are doing the twittering... and referring you, your site or your product it can have an impact on your traffic. It's up to the person to offer quality information to their guests visitors to keep them coming back. I am also learning it's about developing an effective twitter writing style to get people's attention on Twitter to take notice to WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY. Twitter is the art of writing short influential tweets so people will listen and engaging people in meaningful conversations. I think alot of people are not getting twitter because it's about the soft sell. Example: Soft sell recommendation Twitter asks... What are you doing? Checking out (an ebook, new product etc.) @ Give URL. Great Resource. Excellent Information. Good Value. I like it. Example: Hard sell recommendation Hurry Go Check This Out NOW! Visit @Give URL BUY This Now! See the difference? I visited and read your “Twitter Can Be Useful”

Kyle, I agree with you if the right people are doing the twittering… and referring you, your site or your product it can have an impact on your traffic. It’s up to the person to offer quality information to their guests visitors to keep them coming back.

Twitter is the art of writing short influential tweets so people will listen and engaging people in meaningful conversations.

I think alot of people are not getting twitter because it’s about the soft sell.

Example: Soft sell recommendation

Twitter asks… What are you doing?

Checking out (an ebook, new product etc.) @ Give URL. Great Resource. Excellent Information. Good Value. I like it.

Example: Hard sell recommendation

Please wait a moment and try again." why they not upgrade their resource? yeah twitter is very very nice and easy, make me and my friends keep contact and share our idea.

Schools of thought: 1) Keeping like minded individuals connected on topics of their industry. @mattcutts at times tweets about interesting SEO related material. 2) Social and popularity game. 3) Cross promoting a twitter account with other social venues can create a High link value on your tweet links. Additional Twitter Apps make for useful Link creation. 4) Market research - using twitter tools or apps you can Search by keyword Niche terms and see what is on the pulse of the people minds. I use twitter for all 4 of the examples above. I share information, get quick answers to problems I might have, socialize, promote, research and as a creative outlet. At times I tweet a problem and have a solution faster than I can Google search a solution. Powerful when used correctly. Waste of time about what you had for lunch. Can be dangerous to your reputation if applied as a psychoanalytical evaluation :) So don't follow me @bigebiz The value of twitter is how you use it for your own business model.

I made the necessary correction. ;-) My experiment by asking two questions in twitter was a failure. Only one question was answered and one of the answers was by Kyle (see above). One foot is out of the twitter house, at least as a business tool. Thanks, Will. I made the necessary correction. ;-)

You don't want to be burned at the Twitter stake. It's funny that Twitter's downtime is so out of control that it's spurned the creation of sites like this: http://www.twiddict.com/login I’m not a Twitter scientist, but I think the technical term is “Tweet,” not “Twit.” You don’t want to be burned at the Twitter stake.

Have seen this is so many things you just need that first important person to pick it up and start throwing it around and there you are. Always remember the milliondollarhomepage idea, picked up a few press releases in the right place and there you are a million dollars.
