People read your blog and Who are Interested in Adding Useful commentary Usually do so in more Than 140 characters. People with short comments Normally say "See my website at – and include a link to Their URL." Such comments do not contribute to your blog and are just another form of unwanted advertising. Ltr; like the promotional messages Undesired That modern clog email. This unwanted advertising, no matter Where It is Called Spam OCCURS. The "tweets" coming from Twitter take on the typical form of spam messages. It Seems strange to me That the Sami people vigorously opposed That Spam, embrace the very thing Sami Disguised as a "tweet."

Twitter has added a new dimension to URL links posted in Being "tweets." Since MOST URLs are quite long, to make 'em made in 140 characters along with year explanatory message, a URL shortening service Has To Be used. Currently There are over 90 URL shortening services. TinyUrl.com, and Bit.ly, to name a few, are popular on Twitter. Bit.ly is the official URL shortening service for Twitter. It takes a long URL and turns it Into the form bit.ly / xxxxx, where 'xxxxx Represents a character code for the original URL. When Someone clicks on the link Shortened URL, the user first goes to bit.ly and then is redirected to the actual URL. Before Tweet Adder Scam redirecting purpose, the information about the user clicked on the link Who is saved. In this way users merchandising trends about Twitter Can Be Companies tracked and participante Could Be more effective marketing efforts In Their. There Is not Such a word for tracking? Spyware!

Besides, the privacy aspect, Shortened URLs are a target for hackers. If They Ever a URL shortening service Compromised, anyone Who plays were using URL Service Could Be That feels to virus-laden site INSTEAD of Where THEY wanted to go. Shortened URLs Have Numerous Other security issues associated with 'em. Many sites address technical issues thesis.

What can Be Expressed in 140 characters? Most thoughts of Stated Value can not be in this form of communication. Most forms of short term common to texting on cell phones and Twitter, are nothing more Than Gossip, Spam, and Other useless chatter. Twitter is just another tool in the media's effort to suppress the Individual, and create a population of people so superficial THEY Cdn That Easily accept the Dictates of the leaders and marketers That Their pull strings.

Twitter teaches you to gossip in short bursts of thought. Your attention span gets shorter. You Need to concentrate on a subject long and hard before you learn it Cdn. When you get Brainwashed by texting and twittering, Ability to Learn your Diminished gets.

How to Combat the Spread of spamming Twitter

This article is year Attempt to begin to set standards for the use Some of Twitter by Network Marketers. 10 years ago Email Spamming Almost killed the industry I Believe in Twitter Spam is dangerous thing of doing the Sami.

So what do I mean by Twitter Spam? Well in my experience (I Have Followers 9.400) it Comes in three forms and I Will Discuss EACH one in turn and why I Consider Them spamming.

    Multiple Accounts for The Same business opportunity with no profile picture profile or biography These people really are the worst of the spammers. They are so lazy They Have No profile picture or biography and expect you to connect with Twitter's default avatar has brown abstract of An Owl. There sole intent is to have Simply follow Many People As They Cdn and Their welcome message Consists of a sales pitch. I Have Heard excuses like, "I do not know how to upload the image ', or' I am not sure how to use Twitter." Well I'm his box get off the network and buy one of the Many excellent books at under $ 20 and make the effort to learn. If you are too lazy to Do That then here's what I do. I unfollow you if my auto-follow tool beat me to checking my followers and unblock you. You are Simply a waste of my time and I Will not Give You airtime to spam you product or service to my followers.
    
People Whose welcome message is a link to Their sales / business opportunity I have a piece of text in a Notepad file Stored thesis for spammers. It reads, "Thank you for your welcome message making sales pitch That Is The Reason I Have unfollowed you.". I 'cut and paste' the text a response to Into Their welcome Tweet Adder Scam message and then send it. Then I unfollow and block 'em. If They message me with a proper welcome and admitted Their first approach Was a mistake then unblock and I Will Follow. Purpose only ounces.
    
People Whose Tweets are only about how great gold Their product is Social media marketing service HAS Three basic ins, people buy from people THEY: Know, Like, Trust Twitter is Where You get to Know someone. Your welcome message Should Say thank you and then FOLLOWING for a link to Another social network like Facebook THEY Where to get Canon Like you. Well it is not possible to get to know Someone if They Do is all you AT Tweet About their product or service. All you know is THEY sell that thing. As soon as I see one of my followers doing nothing but Tweeting Their products or services I unfollow and block 'em.

Am I losing followers Because Of this? Yes I lose about 20 to 30% of new Followers a day. Is that a problem? Well in my view no. I want to do my bit to stop Twitter Becoming a big spam fest of nothing but ridiculous get rich quick claims. If you are going To Be An Ethical long term network marketer you need a three – year plan oven. The Ones That success has made and mittal Their full-time income in less Than Two Year's are exceptional. For You To Be Successful you need an approach you-can learn duplicate year. People Who Were lucky, Had a lot of money to invest in the opportunity or backwards Understand Pay Per Click are the exception Rather Than the rule. So When looking for a Sponsor Who Says They Know social media marketing here's my advice – find out if They Have a Twitter Account.

If They Do not forget it then THEY do not understand social media marketing. If They do follow 'em and look At Their type of Tweets and How They greet you. If They commit sins 1 to 3 Above the first hurdle THEY fail and forget joining 'em.

Also Be Aware Of An interesting new Phenomenon – social media marketing managers. These Are Agencies To Be Who claims to the personal account Whose They Are Running. Personally I think this is a shabby and lazy approach is all it Does the agency make a ton of money ($ 5,000 a month! Some Are charging) and you Are Not Even speaking to the person you think you are. I mean it's pure and simple impersonation if It Was In Another industry therefore it Would Be Called fraud.

To be clear I am not talking about Who Agencies help you set up you social media marketing presence, design etc.. I am talking people Who are Paid To pass off as Themselves Someone They Are not – this just cuts away at the very concept of Developing a relationship with the actual person. If people are honest and say my PA Will answer your queries or Tweets That I get, organize events for you on-line OK, but promised to commit to in X number of conversations with your Friends on Facebook is impersonation.

I truly Believe the network marketing industry Needs to set standards for Behavior Some are social media and social networks and then People Can Apply for membership. If we do not clean our act up then companies like Twitter and Facebook Will Do a 'slap' and enforce standards. Far better we follow ethical social media marketing Than Have the equivalent of CAN SPAM Laws passed for social media marketing.
