Twitter campaign - need some feedback
-
Hi
I am helping my wife optimize e-com site selling childrens clothing. I am learning SEO from scratch and have no real computer background (physician IRL). Been doing okay - member here for less then 2 months and are ranking 12th and 14th for 2 main keywords (frontpage) and 4 other keywords on first page (producer names on separate pages) (6th -9th spot). All of course absolutely whitehat. I havent done a twitter campaign yet. just recently opened twitter account but have 3 or 4 followers willing to retweet ( they all have 700-1000 followers in right segment). I have very limited twitter knowledge. Here is my idea and just shoot at it if you think i should do it otherwise:
it will be in norwegian but ill do it in english just for you
follow @companyname(epleskrinet) #childrensclothing (which is name i use for company on facebook) and retweet and take part to have your chance to win a 'giftcard' of x USD. (www.epleskrinet.no)
I am planning to put a box/picture referring to competition on frontpage.
Feel free to critique me, thanks for help.

Hi Dan,
First, I would follow the brands that you carry and the people that carry those brands. Then I would create a custom coupon just for the twitter followers (10% off your next purchase for following us on twitter). Once you start gaining more followers I would do the follow message that you have and put it on your homepage of the website, on your twitter account and on facebook. I would leave the competition down to a certain amount of people and I would say whomever gets retweeted the most wins a $$$ giftcard to our store (you can also do this on facebook - we recently did it for a client on facebook and they gained 1000 followers in two days and it's still growing).
Hope this helps!

Oh and the point of this is to get some followers quickly and then just let them do the work for you with RT etc.
Tip for the competwition is to give away something that is actually related to what you sell, sounds obvious but people often give away things that people will go bad for; Ipad etc
Give something related and they will engage with you and buy from you.

Hey
My advice is find someone who is already doing what you are wanting to achieve that is in the same niche as you, then follow their followers and add real value to your followers.
Following users will get you noticed and you will get some followers back from it but don't over do it thats just spam!
Also consider some competitions etc a good start is http://competwition.com/ this will get you some followers pretty quickly, just be sure to set it to a 30 day comp to maximise your followers.
Remember though add value, engage with people and don't spam.
Hope this helps

Twitter interactions
We would love for some feedback as we're facing an internal dilemma on how to utilize twitter for our business. We are launcing a new travel site that will connect travellers based on their activities and also serve as a booking platform. One part of our marketing team suggests we make two seperate twitter accounts; one 'formal' that follows a structured guideline in posting relevant material and one for the Social Media manager to reply to people as site official. The other part suggests we reply and interact using the 'formal' account; no second twitter account needed for interacting. What would you suggest?

Have You Found Examples Of Folks Buying Twitter Followers?
Check out this article..... USA Today “Handicapper” Danny Sheridan Bought Thousands of Twitter Followers: http://www.wagerminds.com/blog/danny-sheridan/usa-today-handicapper-danny-sheridan-bought-thousands-of-twitter-followers-6096/ Seems pretty clear Sheridan, who is not a particularly compelling celebrity, is purchasing Twitter followers. I remember when he first launched his Twitter account, he offered (on live radio spots) to donate $1 to charity for every follower he received for a few months. From the article: "Buying followers is, if you think about it, the height of narcissism. You’re buying followers to dupe casual Twitter users into thinking you’re more popular and influential than you really are. In turn, you’re hoping the phony popularity will help translate into actual popularity as legitimate users flock to a seemingly ‘popular’ Twitter user." Do you believe this is becoming a problem on Twitter, and do you think it actually can help him or anyone else?

How much power does using keywords on Facebook and Twitter have from an SEO perspective?
Hi all, When we add a new Christmas party package onto our website I always tweet about it with a link to the party page, utilizing a tweet such as : "New Manchester Christmas parties", followed by the link. How much power (if any) does utilizing the key phrase Manchester Christmas parties have on SEO for that page? Bearing in mind the link is shortened and doesn't mention the keywords anywhere in it, they are only present in the tweet itself. Similarly, on our company Facebook page I always post a link with a title such as "check out our new Manchester Christmas parties". Does this have much SEO benefit for the page I'm directing the link to? Many thanks!!
