Blogging and Twittering

by angela.booth on May 13, 2008


If you’re a Twitter user, you probably rely on your friends and followers knowing who you are. Otherwise they wouldn’t be following you, would they? However, many people will come across your tweets and won’t have a clue who you are.

Here’s a clever trick. Does Your Blog Have a Twitter Landing Page? – Search Engine Guide Blog reports:

“Laura added a link on her Twitter page that sends you to a special page on her blog that explains more about who she is, and what she does.  I emailed her to ask her why she created this page, and here’s her response:

‘Here’s the thing, when someone clicks a Twitter profile URL, they’re probably trying to get just a little bit more information on who is writing the tweets. Chances are, they don’t have a bunch of time to go in-depth. So I thought it might be nice to put out a little welcome mat. “

That’s an excellent idea, and one I’d never thought of. Introduce yourself to your new Twitter friends!

By the way, I use Twitter to post links to many of the blog posts and articles I write each day, so if you want to follow me, you can. :-)
