Send Targeted Sponsored Tweets with Twitter for Extra Cash

Marie M. Daniels
Sponsored tweets from Twitter accounts are nothing new but entrepreneurial people are always finding new income streams you may be interested in this one. Twitter is a free service and may soon put ads on their tweets but some other companies have already started doing this and they are cashing in.

Sponsored tweets are similar to google ads on a web page. The difference here with the sponsored tweets is that they are going out to your followers. Most of the services will let you pick the sponsored tweets you want to send out. This way the sponsored tweets are targeted ads to your followers.

Many people can profit from this new type of income with sponsored tweets with Twitter. Many celebrities are already making money from sponsored tweets. If the celebrities can use sponsored tweets then the little guy can too. If you run a blog, are an author or have a small business and have more than a handful of Twitter followers you can use a sponsored tweet service to make money from the tweets that you send out.

There are a few companies that have already begun to trail blaze this new technology and they are sending out sponsored tweets. One sponsored tweets ad company is Twivert. Twivert is trying to get new signups so they are also paying you to sign others up to use their sponsored tweet service for Twitter. There is another sponsored tweet company Ad.ly that boasts big celebrity names. Ad.ly claims celebrities such as Soulja Boy and Kim Kardashian use their sponsored tweets service.

Some people do not like the sponsored tweets that are being sent out. Many don't mind because we already see sponsors just about everywhere we look now days. The sponsored tweets that go out are usually only once per day so as not to spam your followers. The sponsored tweets can also be targeted to your business and can even be written by you.

Sponsored tweets just like google ads can significantly add to your income and give you another multiple income stream. So if you are in the business of making money or need a little extra cash then sending your Twitter followers a few sponsored tweets can help you.

    Good article, but many Twitter users are blocking people who send Sponsored Tweets, because they often look like spam.
