Twitter - I missed something
Tags: Internet
With all my complaining about Twitter lately I did neglect to mention the real reason I started playing with it, thanks to a marketing buddy of mine. Namely, SEO, or search engine optimization. Basically, Google (and other search engines, but let's be real - Google is king right now) loves new content. Search engines also love lots of links to websites. And some of the best way to generate new contents and links is to tweet stuff, like the tweet I'm about to make announcing this new blog post. So far the jury, consisting of me, is still out on the benefit of this, but it's worth looking at more. It's also why I sometimes have tried to jam a lot of key words into my tweets, so that people will find me by searching, either on Google or on http://search.twitter.com . Does it really work though...?
