Twitter Account

[Britanica]

Do you have a Twitter account just for your website/forum/blog?

I recently started using one myself and I will follow anyone in my related niche. I have jumped from 0 to 100+ followers in only a few days. I work on following mass numbers and posting popular forum discussions on there to encourage new members.

I didn't think to do this myself, I am going to see if my name is still available. Twitter is so hard to sign up for anymore because all the good names are taken. :weary:

I have one for all my sites, and I have to say that it generates a decent amount of traffic.

You can always use ones such as Website.Forums, or Website_Forums; and that doesn't look unprofessional, I don't think.

Using underscores is fine by me. I think it looks great when you have it placed right. A lot of people don't think to use them.

I use Twitter for personal and business and both accounts do well as far as advertisement and traffic sourcing.

Yes, I have always had a separate Twitter account for every site I have. Not just Twitter, but every social media network. I think you are better off doing it this way, plus it is more organized.

Yep! It is definitely necessary because it is great for marketing and SEO. It's gotten to the point where it's expected.

Yes, I do, I think you have to be connected to social media if you want to be successful with your site. Social media is how people communicate online now, and if your site isn't connected, you are missing out on a lot of additional visitors.

Yep that's exactly how I feel.

Social media equals traffic, plain and simple. If you engage your audience, then you will have more traffic than you know what to do with coming to your site. Now you just need to turn that audience into dollar signs.

Exactly this! You just need to know how to use it. I've seen people do a horrible job with using social media to advertise. There was this one PR nightmare with I think it was Dijorno. The social media manager posted in the wrong group and it went horribly wrong.

I use my personal one for the time being but I will be branching off once I get everything in order.
