Going Local With Twitter
If you are promoting a business online that is specific to your local area then jumping into a global site like twitter.com may at first not sound all that wise...
But there are many ways you can take advantage of the latest internet phenomenon in order to grow your local business!
But there are many ways you can take advantage of the latest internet phenomenon in order to grow your local business!
Here are 2 ways you can find local twitter followers:
1. Finding Local Followers:
Instead of just twittering into an empty oblivion, hoping someone somewhere will see, you can find yourself hundreds and hundreds of LOCAL followers.People in your local area who will actually read your updates and may even become your next valuable customers.
You can find these targeted followers by using a Twitter Friend Adder, a piece of software that you install onto your computer that will automate certain parts of you twitter account.
For example:
You tell the friend adder that you would like to add people close to your location. It scans twitter and finds them. It then automatically starts following them for you. Some of those people will follow you back, and the friend adder can then unfollow those who don't. Which leaves you with a large list of local twitter followers. All automatically!
Everything is kept nice and simple, and you are left free to do other things while the friend adder gets on with the job.
I have reviewed the leading twitter adders and have written by reviews at www.TwitterAdders.com

2. Tweeting Locally
The second way to benefit from Twitter is to use it to come up in Google for your chosen keywords. You can write a tweet perhaps every other day about what it is you sell + your location.For example: Let's say you are a motorcycle instructor in Cardiff. You could post: "Just helped someone pass their motorcycle test, in Cardiff! www.1stclassrider.co.uk"
Including your website link and both your main keywords and location will help when it comes to Google ranking.
Twitter is a quick and easy way to start promoting your business online, and no real skill or knowledge is required to start using it. If you can send a text message you can use Twitter.
So there you have it!
You can now easily take advantage of Twitter for your local business by both finding local followers and by posting information about your business location.
Remember: Twitter is a fun site people use to communicate with each other. Nobody likes it if all ou ever post about is your business, so let your personality shine through as well as your business goals.
