One of the ways that I promote and publicize my blogs is through the social networking site, Twitter. I currently have a Twitter following of approximately 2500 people, and it increases every day.
I participate in many Twitter parties such as Mom It Forward Girls Night Out.
There are many informative sites available to help one understand the nuances and techniques that are used to gain Twitter followers, thereby building your brand and your niche. I also make use of the popular Hashtags, such as #followfriday, #ff, #gno, #womentofollow and many more that can be found at http://hashtags.org/
After you’ve built a substantial following, I recommend that you look into setting up an account at Twittad. As a WAHM, I’m always on the lookout for ways to earn a little extra household cash, even if it’s just to pay my web hosting fees!
On Twittad, you can:
- Post Twitter Account for Advertisers to Purchase
- Select your duration & price
- Wait for advertiser to purchase
- Accept or Deny the proposed ad within 48 hours of purchase
My Twitter profile has been purchased several times and is currently running a promo advertisement. 
I might not be able to take a vacation on my earnings, but every little bit helps and can go towards payment of my blog hosting fees!

I checked this out and it’s an interesting concept. My issue is — does it take over the whole background of your twitter page? I like to keep my “branding” there….I couldn’t seem to find an answer to that??

Interesting post. Just followed you on twitter, hope you’ll do the same; http://twitter.com/heavens786
I was wondering how much do you earn via twittad? Has your earning increased or decreased, cuz what I’ve heard about these services is that earnings drop with time.

This is so unique. I’ve never heard of something like this before.
I’ve heard of making money on twitter via CPC or CPM but never this.
I’m going to go join and test it out now, Thanks ^^.
