How would you like to learn how to post on a blog like this one?
You can put your thoughts on paper but learning how to build your own blog is something different. If you have the right training it is not that difficult.
When you learn how to build your own blog you get to choose the things that you write about. You can also use the blog to make extra income. Here is where I learned how to build my own blog and connect with people who helped me along the way.

Michelle,
Watched the video from Clicktotweet. Sounds very interesting. This week is a full schedule, I think I will put this in my notes to look at this over the weekend as I have over 2000 followers on Twitter and do not use it that much.
Thanks for the link and information, will be back over the weekend.

Hello John,
Happy that you found the information useful. WOW, over 2000 followers, awesome. This would definitely be a great tool for you and you team of followers indeed. Get the word out to your followers each time you create new content. Give it a whirl and I would love some feedback. All the best.
Michelle
I have not been using Twitter but I know I actually should!
The main reason of me avoiding using Twitter is that I actually don’t know how to use it. But, with this useful article, I think I should definitely give Twitter a try.
One question though (but a bit irrelated), do you think it’s better to promote our business on Twitter or Facebook?
Hello Crystal,
Thanks for your visit. Yes, get going with Twitter and if u use this method, it will be easy-peasy. Hmmm, I honestly don’t know, Crystal. I think it just depends on your preference and where you have your following. Whatever you choose, just take your time and do your best. Good luck.
Michelle
Looks cool,
I noticed you mention that in the end, you have to depend on your content to make the traffic, but, of course, that is another story.
So how much work is involved here. I mean, every campaign you set up need some time and sometimes the time consumed don’t always give you the results you need. When you have done the part once, is it easy to copy and paste into another, or do you have to start all over?
I’d love to hear your opinion here.
Looking forward to it.

Hello Odd Helge,
Thanks for your thoughts. Yes, it is an ongoing process, isn’t it? No need to answer…lol. Each article you write is different, so you need to copy/paste the info into each new tweet. But it is no biggie, once you get the ‘hang of it’, it will be ‘a piece of cake’ – at leas that is how I find it. Give a try and let me know. All the best.
