Twitter Tool Question
-
I've been searching for a tool that will allow me to send mass tweets to multiple @accounts?
For example, I use Topsy to see who's shared my content and want to send a follow up tweet to everyone who has, but find it time-consuming to do this manually.
What I have in mind is something where I can upload a spreadsheet of Twitter names, write one tweet and for this to be tweeted at everyone on the list.
I haven't found what I'm looking for so far. Does anyone know of such a tool?

Yeah I've seen that Chris, thanks. I think it pulls this in from the @connect tab on Twitter.

Hi Matt,
Hootsuite you can add a tab called "mentions" and "retweets" and you can then see anyone that's talking to you and reply from there its a bit more manually maybe but would let you communicate.
You can also track your mentions so over time you can keep an eye on it. My only regret I find with using hoot suite is it would be helpful for a bigger notice of a reply (sound or pop up etc.)
Hope that helps.

Chris, Jonathan, Christy, thanks for your replies. I'm really sorry for such a long delay acknowledging these, I've actually only just realised there were answers to my post.
@Chris, I already use Hootesuite and find it really useful, but for this particular task I don't think it's up to the job. This is the scenario: I created a piece of content that got over 100 tweets. I wanted to very quickly send a follow up tweet to these people, basically to add fuel to the fire and keep the conversation going. Hootesuite does not do this, as far as I am aware.
@Jonathan, I've not used Tweetadder. Sounds interested and could possibly be what I'm looking for. I'll check it out. Thanks for the advice.
@Christy, not simply a thank you tweet as such, but something to continue the discussion and hopefully get more shares for the content. You're right, mass tweets isn't the best way to go about things, but individual tweets was simply not possible on this occasion.
Thanks to all 3 of you for taking the time to reply.

Hi Matt, what did you end up going with?

Hi Matt, do you mean that you want to send the same thank you tweet to multiple people? If so, I highly discourage this. It will be highly obvious to your followers what you are doing, and possibly more insulting than appreciated. Automated DMs and replies can actually cost you followers. If someone takes the time to share your content, and you truly appreciate it, isn't it worth the time to send them a personalized tweet? (And it will definitely encourage them to share your content in the future, ahem.) That said, while you are most likely to maximize engagement if you respond organically -- as soon as possible after your content is shared -- I realize this isn't also practical. If this is the case, I would consider hammering out that list of personalized thank you tweets on a spreadsheet and scheduling them in advance (staggered, so you don't flood your feed with thank yous and overwhelm your followers.) Hootsuite makes it super simple to do this. Hope that helps! (Christy)

I too am not sure if it completely fits, but I use tweetadder.com
I am assuming you want to put in the "@name" at the beginning of each tweet. Tweetadder will let you import a list of tweets, and then it will tweet this out at a schedule (times \ intervals etc). Its also a one off fee.
I use Tweetadder to auto retweet, find followers (relevant), set scheduled tweets, manage followers etc. It is very good.

Not sure if it fits completely fits but have you looked into "hoot suite" ? it has a free trail type thing (so you can at least test). You can submit the same message to multiple accounts.

Twitter stats
I am trying to increase the position of one of my deeper links (my site.com/targetpage) trying to use twitter to up this page as a new strategy. I have 18 on OSE for my twitter metrics but none on the deeper link (i havent tried yet for this). How do i actually get the a twitter metric score for this deeper link? Does the tweet have to be the actual target page URL? Or is it a twitter share button on the page? Confused how it works. Thanks, Chris

Do twitter profile links in bio pass juice?
Links that are added in the "Website" field in a twitter profile are nofollow. However, links added to the "Bio" section are dofollow. This has to mean these links are passing juice correct?

SEO and AddThis implementation question
We recently implemented AddThis social sharing on our Website. I am seeing an undesirable side-effect. In Firefox and Chrome browsers, some kind of tracking snippet appears to be appending to our URLs. This is not happening in IE (or if it is it isn't visible). I am concerned about how these URLs look in the address bar to our visitors and I'm also worried about potential duplicate content issues arising when a spider crawls the site. It appears to only be an issue with our product detail pages. The category pages all seem fine. [I am sure this is because social sharing button are only installed on the product pages]. Here is an example: http://www.ccisolutions.com/StoreFront/product/williams-sound-personal-pa-377#.UFnvkVG-7Aw This URL should be: http://www.ccisolutions.com/StoreFront/product/williams-sound-personal-pa-377 Is there a workaround for this problem? Has anyone else experienced this issue and found a solution? Thanks!

Is facebook and twitter always a good idea to promote a website and improve Google rankings?
I'm attempting to promote a fresh seafood market / restaurant here on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. I have not found a lot of examples of people using Twitter and Facebook to promote this type of business here. Is it hard to justify the time for return here? One benefit I thought for twitter is we could have tweets displayed on site giving us some dynamic content which would hopefully keep Google spider coming back more regularly is this correct? Is there any link building advantage to using these social media sites?
