Hi Lisa,

I remember your earlier post about it, and though I did head over to give it a look I didn’t really follow it up. However, once you have tried it out and you truly vouch for it – I guess it does make sense. However, I guess we might have to create a different twitter handle from the one we have right now, or do you manage to send these sponsored tweets with the same handle? I know you can choose topics that you are interested in as you mentioned, but even then I wonder how it all would be working – just curious.

Thanks for sharing.

This is very interesting. I am on it but so far I have only got one offer and when I tried to tweet it, did not work. I did not bother to go back to it. But now that you are saying some good things about it, I might consider going back to it. What do I need to do so that advertisers can find you? Perhaps it might be a good idea to try out the paid account a few months.

I would love to make some extra money. What’s the minimum number of followers you need to qualify for the sponsored tweet program?

Occasionally, I get emails from people who want to pay for advertised links at my blog. I’m charging a fee now if a company wants me to write a post for them. In the past, when I agreed to allow a guest post at my site, the article was so poorly written, I had to rewrite the entire article. It took up a large chunk of my time. No more freebies unless it’s for the arts.

I agree with you about setting a higher rate for your services. “You get what you pay for!”

One company wanted to create a page on my blog. I was afraid of losing control of my content, so I said no.

That’s awesome Lisa! I dabble a bit with Sponsored Tweets and have made a teeny bit. Nothing like you though! Wow! I’ve recently add a few affiliates that “give back” when items are purchased to Pibbles & Me. The goal is to be able to take that “give back” and give to the local No-Kill Shelter here. Although I just started doing it, not much has come in yet but I’m looking for other ways to “get” and then “give”.

Kudo’s to you gf! Congrats!

I’ve had a complete slump in SponsoredTweets for a while, not had any offers for ages, which isn’t really a good sign, but fingers crossed that it will start to slowly build up again soon.

Hi Lisa,

I must admit, I’ve never heard of sponsored Tweets. I guess it’s somewhat similar to Facebook sponsored posts, just formatted to the Twitter ecosystem.

I have a lot of work to do on the social network side of things. I have the necessary accounts, but I haven’t taken the time to learn the intricacies of them yet. Plate’s just too full right now, but it’s on the goal list for this year.

This is definitely something I’ll want to check out as I continue to grow my Twitter following!

Thanks for sharing your results and I hope you have an awesome week!

This was a good post, If anyone wants to start blogging or anyone who has just started should read this article about making money as a blogger.

I love this post. It is honest and true and makes the very important point that blogging is a long term strategy. Too many think they can blog for 6 months and make a fortune. But like you say it’s hard work. It’s about building a strong following, delivering quality content, defining your niche and putting your stamp on the world.

Thanks for your inspiration,

Hi Lisa,

I haven’t tried making money from my blog yet, but intend to do so in the coming months. Never heard of sponsored tweets – they sound like fun, so it’s something I might explore. You’re a wealth of information – always learn something new here – thank you!

That’s so cool Lisa!

Another point added to the make-money-online list. Sponsored Tweets! Ah! Sounds great. I’m sure, a lot of people will start using bots to get more followers so as to earn more through tweets. But this ain’t gonna work. Only when we have true followers, we can expect clicks in return which indirectly raises the price. Having thousands of autobot followers doesn’t gonna help in either ways.

And we can get genuine followers, only by sharing other’s content- The Ultimate Rule of Social Media.

Thanks for sharing,.

I suddenly feel inspired to dig into research for affiliate stuff and sponsored things for the blogs. I have been using Quantcast for the past month and I actually know demographics of the people who visit my blog. Combining that with my stats should lead me in a direction that might earn me some money.

I might try sponsored tweeting if I can hook up with people that I can endorse. I am assuming you get to make choices about what you tweet or don’t tweet.

I didn’t know you could earn by sponsored tweets with so little to invest. I wanna try this one also.

I have just started my blog and this post have given me a brilliant idea to spread the word around and earn while doing so. My mind and eyes are wide open now.

Thanks for this share. I appreciate your effort.
