     1/. Sign up to Twitter, and then search for me - my twitter name is AffiliateABC

     Using AffiliateABC as an example of someone you know, when you find me, click on my profile and please become one of my followers - that way, we can keep in contact if you wish to discuss the sort of subjects I write about.

     I should explain that I run a website entitled Affiliate School, and Slum Dog Affiliates, and I provide free advice for people who would like to become an affiliate, perhaps work from home to make money from Internet marketing.

     2/. If you were going to start you a business; for example, selling wedding dresses and accessories, rather than using Twitter to search for old school friends, you might create a wedding profile for your company and then search for similar people to network with.

     You might find by searching the Find People tab for “wedding” there will be many people you could tie up with to share website links, ideas, cooperate to sell each other’s wedding accessories and dresses.

     You might create your profile as something other than your real name - for example “Wedding bells” rather than your real name Mary Smith

     3/. If you follow me, and I follow you, we end up with a wider network of contacts, and in turn, people will take you more seriously if you appear to have many followers. You can try follow as many people as you can by keep hitting the Find people (category wedding) and following as many people as you can, but try to follow too many people at once and you generate a warning from Twitter police HQ that you might be trying to follow too many people - Twitter are wise to, and don’t like you to follow too many people, too soon. So try following people with many followers. read more »

     Reply:
     On Twitter a simple @reply can go a long way. As we all know, building relationships is the first thing to marketing success. And the only way to build relationships is through chatting with people on Twitter, and that’s exactly what you will do when you reply to someone’s tweet.

     People often think the only way to reply to a tweet is by saying something like this:

     Cool, I like that, thanks.

     No, no, no, don’t reply to someone’s tweet like that, instead say something like this:

     Hey, thanks for the cool information. Do you know where I can learn more about dog grooming?

     See, it’s a nice ‘thank you’ tweet, but also it gives the other person a reason to reply back to you. And that is how you begin to reply to people. How does it benefit you? You built a relationship with this person, you chatted back-and-forth with this person, and every time the other person replies back to you, your Twitter username will be “promoted” to all their followers. What could be better? Nothing!
