Unless you've been living under a rock for the last few years, then you've heard of Twitter. I bet even your grandma knows about Twitter! But seriously Twitter is one of the most important social marketing sites available.

Almost ever major business uses Twitter. From small mom and pop shops to major corporations like tv stations. Twitter allows any size business to get in contact, and stay in contact with their customers for free.

To say that you should be using Twitter for your business is a no-brainer. But the fact is that still many business owners and website operators aren't using Twitter the way they should, because they just don't know how. They're leaving a lot of potential sales out there.

Let's take a look at how you can utilize Twitter to make some money by promoting business. The first step is of course to register for a free account, though the next steps are where many people get left behind. Make sure you personalize your Twitter account to your niche.

Now you'll want to get into the actual marketing techniques of Twitter. The first way is by responding to questions that people post on Twitter with a link to your site. Let's say for example that you see a question asking about needing Ink Toner, and you reply with, "Save 10% on Ink Toner, Deliver Tomorrow." There's a good chance the poster who needs the product will click on the link. There's also a good chance others will too.

The other main method is to build a large following of people who are interested in your Niche. If you sell Britney Spear's Ringtones, you follow people who like Britney Spears. Or whatever your niche is. The key here is to follow lots of people, and then all of the people who didn't follow you back, you unfollow them. Then keep repeating the process. Eventually you'll have a huge list of people who are interested in your niche, and with a drop of a simple link you can send massive amounts of traffic.

Unfortunately like many other effective internet marketing strategies, Twitter marketing can and will take up a lot of your time if you do it manually. But if you stick with it you will have built yourself an incredible marketing tool that will make you wonder how you ever lived without it.
