Another tweet program?

Yeah, that's right. There is another tweet program option. Tweet Adder, while absolutely amazing, is pretty pricey. Enter, Social Oomph!


Even has a free version!


Okay I'm not going to lie to you. Tweet Adder can be quite expensive. At $55 for the basic, it's a large investment. Especially for the small net business that it's going to help most. However, Social Oomph has a free version (granted, not as much functionality as the paid version). Now, it doesn't do as much for twitter as Tweet Adder does, but it also works with facebook fan pages, which is what I use it for. 

I would definitely recommend giving the free version a try, it makes using twitter and facebook to grow your website so much easier than trying to get by doing everything manually. 

Never underestimate the ability to schedule tweets. In marketing terms, this is incredibly valuable.

YouSayToo

300x250


Typically, I prefer to test out every new potential income source on a blog-by-blog basis, as what works for one blog may not work for another. However, YouSayToo is immune to this standard of mine. This is because of the way it works. YouSayToo is a content rehosting service. Whatever you post, is duplicated to the YouSayToo website, where it is shared with a great number of readers - more than your blog can reach on it's own.

Not only does YouSayToo share the revenue with you from the rehost, but they also send you tons of traffic. I've implemented it on one of my blogs so far, and it's increased traffic dramatically. I really enjoy their service.

Don't you deserve more from your blog?

Profit or fame?

There are many reasons that people blog, but most are looking to gain something.

What are you looking to gain? Would you prefer to be rich or famous? (Both are highly unlikely)


But, what I mean by that is simple. Do you blog for a few dollars here and there, or do you blog to spread your knowledge? Is it possible that you can combine the two? I feel like it is. Blogging purely for profit is boring and pointless. What good is receiving millions of hits if nobody enjoys your content enough to revisit?
