Twitter Traffic
Using Twitter to gain traffic to your website may be a little under rated by some. In fact, each time I write a post like this one, I have a plug in that automatically sends a tweet through my twitter account which notifies my followers about the new post. There are different plug-ins to do this. To find one you like just search for twitter in your plug-ins section of Wordpress. Each time I write a post and the tweet is sent, my site will receive around 50 visits or about 1% of my twitter followers.
While that may not seem like much, that is approximately 1500 website visits a month if I were to post on a daily basis. Looking at a pay per click rate of around 20 cents a click which is a low average, the same 1500 visitors would cost me around 300 dollars a month. With this in mind, driving traffic to my website via posts and tweets, is a good trade. I would rather drive traffic to my site in this manner than paying for the clicks and by posting and tweeting, my site grows content wise.
The other nice thing about using Twitter to drive traffic is that if you are a business which has a lot of followers you are able to send out tweets to your followers with daily, or monthly specials, or a business can just send a tweet announcing an unscheduled sale or special. Twitter is a very versatile way to advertise and as the amount of followers you have increases so will your website traffic. Twitter is simply a great way to let people know where to find you.
