How to mass unfollow or bulk unfollow on Twitter

Posted on January 31st, 2010 by admin

It seems Twitter has strong armed Dossy's Twitter Karma and Huitter's Mutuality service out of providing the bulk unfollow function on Twitter. It was very useful for those trying to grow their Twitter following. You could bulk unfollow those who were not following you and fill those available slots with new followings hoping that some of them would follow you in return. This follow – wait a few days – bulk unfollow and then rinse and repeat worked very well for growing your Twitter following.

Well Twitter didn't like that and seems to have succeeded in blocking these two popular services from bulk unfollowing. So what do you do now. Our preference is using services like TweetSpinner. While not free, they do allow you to unfollow in an automated fashion on a regularly scheduled basis. They don't mass unfollow in one stroke but do so a few at a time all day long. This keeps Twitter at bay and also helps you grow your account. In addition to the bulk unfollow function, TweetSpinner also provides filtered following, smart tweets, scheduled tweets, rotating profiles and automated DirectMessages. Well worth the nominal monthly fee.

Comparison of Web Hosting Companies

Posted on January 22nd, 2010 by admin

Comparison of Web Hosting Companies

The best deal today is from Web Hosting Pad . For an incredible $1.99 / month, you get a first class hosting service with cPanel and one free domain name included. It's a limited time promotion and it may be gone tomorrow. We have one account with them and have no complaints. For $71.64 you get web hosting paid for a full three years. That includes one Free domain which generally runs from $10 to $15. Besides, if for some reason you don't like it, you can cancel within 30 days and get your money back. Simply put, an incredible deal with no risk. Better sign up today before it's gone.

Notes: comparison of web hosting companies:

1. IXWebhosting provides dedicated IP addresses. That is important to some people. They provide 2 dedicated IPs for the Expert, 3 for Business Plus and 15 for Unlimited Pro plan.
2. Why is money back guarantee important? Because if for whatever reason you are not satisfied, you can recover your investment and start afresh with a new hosting company. For example, if you sign up and after setting up your website, you find your website is running very slow. That means that the host is serving too many websites on too little resources. Time to get your money back and move on. Most provide money back within the first 30 days.
3. Set up is Free on all the above plans.
4. They all offer email services so we have not included that in the comparison table.
5. They all provide web site statistics, 24/7 telephone, chat and email support.
6. They all provide some kind of site building software for those that are not too technical.
7. Disclaimer: Our company is affiliated with all the above hosting companies and no matter which of the above links you use to sign up, our company will be paid a commission. The reason we did this comparison of web hosting companies was to make it easier for you to compare the various plans from various hosting companies. We hope we have been of help.
8. We intend to keep this comparison updated at least once a month as more and more people are setting up web sites and it is always helpful to compare the latest web hosting deals.

How to make money with no money

Posted on December 22nd, 2009 by admin

What do you do when you don’t have any money to spare but you need to have an additional source of income? It’s a tough position to be in especially in the uncertain economic times we are in.

Most online work from home businesses require a monthly fee from $10 / month to over $100 / month. There are some very good business models out there like GDI and DirectMatches but what do you do when you don’t have any money to spare?

The conventional wisdom says that if you can’t even pay the basic membership dues of $10 / month, you should not be venturing into the world of work from home online businesses. To a large extent that is true. However; my research shows that it can be done and I am going to teach you how to do it.

Since most people don’t have enough time to spare every day, the focus will be on activities that can be done whenever time allows. This is for people all over the world so anybody should be able to do it at their time.

I don’t want people to continue doing this if they don’t get the desired results. So if after three months, you are still not making any money, I would suggest you stop.

If you succeed, you would have found yourself an alternate way of supplemental income. Whether you use that money for retirement, college tuition, car / house payments or for leisure and vacation, that is your business. If you don’t succeed, you would have learnt useful skills that can be applied in many other fields.

Enter your name, email and country of residence in the box provided. You will be emailed the schedule of classes / webinars and upcoming events. Make sure you enter an email that you check frequently so you don’t miss any events / announcements. There is no charge for this course. It is absolutely Free. All I want in return is honest feedback.

Good Luck!

How to blend Twitter and Google for a continuous up to date lead generation system

Posted on December 16th, 2009 by admin

We are holding a webinar on blending Twitter Data and Google Search technology to create a continuous stream of targeted leads.

Google has entered into an arrangement with Twitter whereby Google has access to Twitter’s real time data. Google’s own search repository is a bit more historical while Twitter’s results are by nature real time. Now you can use Google’s superior search technology with Twitter’s real time data and get a leg up on the competition. The webinar will show you how to blend the two and create yourself a constant flow of fresh leads.

To make it easy, you may want to open the following in separate browser windows before the webinar starts:

• Google.com

• Google Alerts – open a free account

• Twitter.com

• TweetSpinner – open a free account

• Long John Twitter

L J T Lite

Posted on November 8th, 2009 by admin

My book ‘Long John Twitter‘ (LJT) launched in May 2009 was received very favorably and helped me get familiar with all kinds of Twitter users. When I was writing LJT, I had the professional marketer and business person in mind. Over the last few months, I have noticed another kind of Twitter user that I wasn’t too familiar with – the student and the social media hobbyist. These two groups are joining Twitter by the droves but their reasons are very different than businessmen and professional marketers. These two groups, students and social media hobbyists primarily want to use Twitter for fun. However; while having fun, they do want to have some bragging rights and want to outdo their friends in the number of followers they have.

The original book ‘Long John Twitter‘ addresses the subject of acquiring followers and retaining them on a long term basis. But it is more of a marketing book and takes a more detailed approach to Twitter and it’s sister Apps. It is an overkill for those who want to get a quick 500 to 1000 or 2000 followers and show off a bit.

It is great to see the enthusiasm of this group jockeying for position and hopefully this report / booklet helps in getting those quick followers to brag about.

As this is an abbreviated version of the original book ‘Long John Twitter‘, I have named it LJT Lite.

There are several ways to follow people:

• Manual – that is one at a time

• Semi-automatic – that is a bunch at a time but initiated manually

• Automatic – you set up your parameters and the system / software follows people round the clock without any daily intervention from you.

• Outsource it – let some company do it for you as at LJT Get Followers service.

  Automatic and Outsourcing is out of the scope of this booklet as it is not intended for those who have a more ambitious agenda. We will however; cover manual and semi-automatic and use FREE services to do that.

This eBooklet is intended to help you build a decent base of followers. Whether you want to have 500 followers or 5,000 or more, the methods taught will keep you growing your followers. If you build a sizeable follower base, you can look into monetizing it but that is a different subject.

Good Luck!
