Who says Twitter is a waste of time ??
 
Been using it to get members and to get link exchanges nice little tool if you ask me...

Get yourelf signed up on http://www.tweetlater.com and set up a auto email respond when somebody follows you, You can also add multi accounts, very easy spam :winkwink:

papill0n 03-30-2009 06:05 AM

Yeah I think its is an amazing tool from what I have seen so far.

Sarah_Jayne 03-30-2009 06:12 AM

This is where we get told it is 'ghey'. I am not sure how much I would play with it on a personal level but for biz it is working well for me. In particular, some of my mainstream sites are eating up the ability to follow my updates on twitter. Multiple accounts and thwirl is making it easy to keep them coming back to my mainstream sites.

Mr Pheer 03-30-2009 06:13 AM

Its only ghey to those that cant think outside the box.

Domain Diva 03-30-2009 06:14 AM

Twitter is a great tool, it seems more and more are discovering its benefits daily.:)

voa 03-30-2009 06:26 AM

Possible...i dont have a account there :)

Raf1 03-30-2009 06:27 AM

It is so much easier and quicker to use than say Youtube or other social networking sites.
You can pretty much set the "spamming" on auto

you guys are ghey

Jarmusch 03-30-2009 07:10 AM

To be honest I don't have the slightest idea what twitter is, never even bothered to visit the website. The name 'twitter' does sound a bit gay though.

tranza 03-30-2009 07:55 AM

Twitter sucks bro...

DWB 03-30-2009 01:01 PM

Why is it that any time there is any sort of a social networking or cool new idea, WE, the porn industry, totally fucks it up with spam?

If I was not in the business, I would want to shut us down too. We suck.

Sarah_Jayne 03-30-2009 01:05 PM

I don't spam on it...I think it is far more effective to actually behave by the rules but have people following you for a specific site. For example, I run a mainstream site that is about a particular video game. I put a 'follow me on twitter' link up and people pretty quickly started to follow me. I just twitter now and then about something to do with something I go into greater depth on within the actual blog. Time after time they then go to the blog and read it and click things that get me paid. Also, the feedback they give through it is so instant that they don't even think about having done it. Most of those types wouldn't send me an email but they are tweeting to me and telling me what they would like to see on the site, etc. Helping me better target to them.

I agree that the out and out spam is too much.

KillerK 03-30-2009 01:10 PM

spam is good mmmmmmmkay!

MindWaste 03-30-2009 01:12 PM

pornguy 03-30-2009 01:15 PM

I have not had time to mess with it, but will soon I hope

mynameisjim 03-30-2009 01:25 PM

It all comes down to time. If your time can be spent doing something else that works better, than it is "ghey"

But if the time you put into it is giving you a decent return, then keep doing it. I just know a lot of people find these new sites and spend a bunch of time on them for minimal gains just because it is new and exciting and a change of pace. I fall for the same traps. You get bored doing what you do on a daily basis so when something new comes along, you spend a lot of time on it and as long as you get a tiny amount of return, you stick with it because it's fun and new even though you may be taking time away from things that actually pay off better.

PornHero 03-30-2009 01:35 PM

Twitter definitely has its uses from a personal and business standpoint :thumbsup

Great tool for sure! Better than blogs specially since retention time for most people is 5-3 seconds.

Twitter is different--all the obvious cam whore and dating and porn spam accounts get shut down for aggressive following/sending crap link only tweets. Twitter is good at that. However, I've noticed MANY dating/cam/porn profiles still doing well because they have ADAPTED to the format and are getting a good # of followers and aren't banned.

The key is to ADAPT

You are so right.

halfpint 03-30-2009 04:55 PM

Twitter sucks ..all I get is spam emails from them, dont even bother with it :2 cents:

DirtyWhiteBoy you are correct but mainstream is even worse at spamming on twitter. They picked up on it way before the porn biz did. It was bound to happen with such an easy "tool" to use

GTS Mark 03-30-2009 05:25 PM

The mainstream guys have jumped in on making $$ with twitter. There are sites that pay you for tweeting and place ads in your tweets

Everyone's Making Money on Twitter Except Twitter

Fred Wilson, a Twitter investor and board member who is a partner at Union Square Ventures, says Twitter will make money by "following the money," or building on the ways that others are developing businesses based on the service.

In other words, as soon as someone figures out a good way to make money on Twitter, Twitter will kneecap them and steal their idea. Finally, a glimmer of business sense at the whimsical startup!

Google or some big company will end up buying twitter and the person/s who started it will walk away with a nice sum of money :2 cents:
