Welcome to the last day of the “6 Day Twitter Traffic” challenge.
Establish Your Authority
In a short time, you can grow and establish your position as an authority by posting on Twitter regularly.
Focus on a niche where you want to be recognized as an expert. Give tremendous value to followers who are also interested in that niche topic.
By posting at least 10 tweets daily, of which 8 are great links you’d like to share with your audience, you’ll quickly gain respect and attention – then influence.
Once that’s done, when you link back to your own website or blog, you’ll find a fair number of your followers will click on that link too – because you are known for providing good value.
Another ‘trick’ to getting the most traffic from Twitter posts is to use ‘grabber’ headlines. Your tweets should evoke interest or curiosity, fear or guilt, envy or anger, if they are to get the most clicks on your links.
Here’s an example of some ‘teaser tweets’ you can post today, as it also helps with the Congenital Heart Defects awareness effort:

If we don’t help spread the word, who will? The children NEED our support. http://www.CHDinfo.com/chdaware/
If you master the twin techniques of locating links of interest and value, and then getting people to click on them by writing teaser headlines, you’ll grow your Twitter network quickly, and get nice bursts of traffic too.
Today’s assignment is to practice writing ‘killer headlines’ – and watching your referral stats to see how much traffic you get from Twitter.
Once you know this, keep the ones that work well, and use that angle as a model for future tweets.
Today’s task includes following 25 new people, posting 10 new interesting links, engage in conversations (by making @ posts) with at least 3 of your followers and practicing writing teaser tweets.
There’s a lot more to Twitter. In fact, no two people agree exactly on how Twitter can be best utilized in your business or personal life. There are so many applications and uses.
Keep exploring, learning and testing. I’m sure you’ll find the Twitter traffic increasing – and you’ll have a lot of fun.
Happy Twittering!
