The Power of Tweet Swaps

If ad swaps can be done, it is also possible with Tweet swaps. It is very similar in terms of a followers list on Twitter and a subscribers list on doing ad swaps, which can be very valuable assets for your business.

Even with your Twitter followers not being as responsive as your subscribers list, it still packs a pretty powerful effect by doing Tweet swaps. This technique can drive thousands of visits to your website every week.

Essentially, this technique simply involves swapping Tweets with somebody else by promoting each other’s free squeeze page gift or articles through both your Twitter followers. However, with Twitter, you might need to post more than once, since followers check in at different times of the day. This means different people will see your Tweets on their timelines based on the times you post them. For maximum efficiency, you can set your Tweet swaps to having two to four swaps each day. To achieve a more desired effect, you can even do this for a seven-day trial period to a 30-day period depending on your needs.

It should be noted that a Tweet partner with a bigger following doesn’t matter, since the key here is having an exchange of equal value. If you have 1,000 followers and your swap partner has 3,000, you can work out a 1:3 ratio, with you sending out three Tweets while your partner sends one.
