How to promote your blog using Twitter

There can be no difference of opinion about the value of promoting your blog posts through Twitter-right? However, not many people know how to use Twiiter  for blog promotion. Learning how to promote your blog using Twitter will help you to not only increase the traffic to your blog but also to help you increase your chances of your content going viral.

Twitter being the top social media site on the net, thousands of people are using it every minute. Because the character limit is only 140 characters in length, you have to be creative in your tweets. 

One of the most important things to remember is to always tweet about what is going on at your blog. This will show your audience that you are adding value with your tweets and not trying to sell stuff on twitter.
Another key to getting traffic to your blog using Twitter is to create curiosity tweets.  These should be short little tweets that say something like “looking for ways to do this or that ?  Visit “http://yourblogurl.com”.

With these salient points in mind, let’s look at some addition things that can be done to drive traffic to your blog using Twitter.
These are some basic steps on how to promote your blog that you can follow :
1.) Sign up for an account on Twitter and include your blog url in your profile description.
2.) Search for groups in your niche and join those groups.
3.) Add the twitter plug-in to your blog. 
4.) Ask readers to retweet your post for you.
5.) Create a fun contest, if you have the resources available. This may involve consulting with an attorney to make sure that all of the legal aspects are covered.

By implementing as many of the above methods as possible for your blog, you will see a good increase in traffic to your blog as a result of learning how to promote your blog using Twitter.
