There are few in the Internet world today that would not have heard of Twitter. A worldwide phenomenon over recent years; the platform has fast become the micro blogger of choice. It has been most popular nowhere else than with celebrities; who seemingly enjoy the impersonality of it all. Increasingly though, it is becoming a powerful tool for companies, through the addition of the Twitter follow me button.

If you are an online marketer, you would most likely have had limited success with other online strategies; be it articles, ezines or ad campaigns. However, these all wane over time, are costly, and can become a bore, (or worse), to your potential clientele.

With Twitter however, (being that we all like something new, shiny and innovative, (ideally in a silver/black box with blue lights)), a new approach is delivered. And it is unlimited; customer base delivered to and for flexibility. Whether you want to announce that new silver and black box, or simply advise about a period of down time, it is there for you.

Many people will already turn to Twitter to see if you are there, so followers will be picked up quite nicely and in good numbers; simply having your entries updated regularly and being relevant.

However, it is those visiting your main site directly, perhaps, your blogs or your pages on the likes of Facebook and YouTube where the Twitter follow me button can be exploited.

To get even greater impact from your Twitter presence, be sure to choose a unique Twitter background that will greet your prospective followers on your Twitter page.

By have these buttons on your pages, you are quite passively inviting visitors to join you. But the key thing here is they are making the decision; they are in charge; that is always a comfortable thing for potential customers to feel. The Twitter follow me button will not revolutionize your company; but it will generate warm traffic for you to tap into.
