One twitter account, tweeting endlessly to an army of other, like-minded, on-line marketers who all just chose to re-follow you is completely retarded. These people will NOT give you money! Are you crazy? They're just, sad, amateur TWAAMers just trying desperately to eek an on-line following, just like you! In fact, you are all "fighting" over the same people!

Want to do it RIGHT? Then you need MORE ACCOUNTS. You need more followers picked randomly from the public time line as they join twitter (because let's face it, newb tweeters are easy targets)... AND... you need some kind of tool to automate it all for you so you don't sit in front of your screen like a maniacal, worm-starved blue jay, peering at you sad little following through bloodshot eyes as numbness enters your brain and your ability to write simple, crappy tweets eventually collapses under the strain of the monotony... and then you finally give up and go watch Law And Order on TV or something equally non-money-making (again, freeing the field for us serious on-line marketers to take the ones who might have followed you).

So what's the tool? Sheesh. IF you don't at least know where to get it by now, you haven't been in the game long enough. There is only one definitive tool...

http://www.twitterblaster.com

Get the tool.

Make 100 twitter accounts.

Set the tool to get 100 friends per account, per day.

Send out your tweets.

All autopilot, all money.

It doesn't get simpler.

Does this rant above sound familiar? It should, there are are literally thousands of Twitter marketers out there right now, clamoring on your doorstep to do what this guy does all day (apparently)...

And sure,... if you are an internet marketer, why settle for just one twitter account, tweeting endlessly to an army of other, like-minded, on-line marketers who all just chose to re-follow you... that IS completely retarded. These people will NOT give them money! Are you crazy? They're just, sad, amateur TWAAMers just trying desperately to eek an on-line following, just like you! In fact, all internet marketers are just "fighting" over the same people!

To do it right, the pro marketer (as illustrated in the video) needs (and uses) MORE ACCOUNTS. They need more followers picked randomly from the public time line as they join twitter (because let's face it, newb tweeters are easy targets)... AND... they need some kind of tool to automate it all for them so they don't sit in front of your screen like a maniacal, worm-starved blue jay, peering at a sad little following through bloodshot eyes as numbness enters their peurile brains and the ability to write simple, crappy tweets eventually collapses under the strain of the monotony... and then they (mercifully) finally give up and go watch Law And Order on TV or something equally non-money-making (again, freeing the field for serious on-line marketers to take the ones who might have followed the quitters).

But where does that leave you and me? The average tweeter?

Well, would it surprise you to know that we are ALL to blame just as much? That's right... and Twitter is too. Here's why...

TWITTER.COM IS FASCIST IN ITS POLICIES BECAUSE IT SUSPENDS ACCOUNTS EVEN THOUGH BEHIND THE SCENES, ITS ENTIRE COMMUNITY ENCOURAGES, AND WAS BUILT SPECIFICALLY FOR SPAM.

Wow! That's a big statement! I know. Many of you will stop reading here and attack me as the former internet marketing jerk (that I used to be) who is trying to bless the practice of "ruining" a peaceful, open micro-blogging community. I am a monster. But I wonder friends,... for those of you who judge me soooo harshly for the above statement... can you explain to me WHY YOU THINK THAT TWITTER really IS intended to be a spam/advertisement-free "community"? And whatsmore, do you have the guts to turn that hyper-judgmental microscope (which you so whimsically love to focus on autoposting software of any type, in this case twitterblaster.com 's)... do you have the integrity to turn that microscope on yourself or twitter.com as a company?

I ask this first question of anyone who is judging the twaamers or this software or what it does...

In that little box of typing space where Twitter asks you to tell them "what you're doing"... have you EVER typed anything that:

- "pointed" at something else, or...

- "painted" some website, product, television show, video, movie, or ANYTHING in a good OR negative light, or...

- "mentioned" something in passing in your broadcast to the world about how something was SO cool?

Have you? Because IF YOU HAVE, then you are a HYPOCRITE. The fact that your little tweet (having been made by an individual as a singular tweet instead of by software) is just one tweet is wholly irrelevant. You are still PLUGGING something, however subtle it may be.

The psychology or skill involved in eloquent equivocation of the written word is all semantics after this point. All semantics.

I know. You hate me for pointing it out. But frankly,... I don't care. I am for EQUALITY.

You say you are too? Great! So let me break it down for you.

I think people should have the real freedom to talk about their service, website, music or product... and there are plenty of people DOING JUST THAT ON TWITTER RIGHT NOW! I can't even tell you the amount of unsolicited "pro tips" or "breaking news" or "business strategy" or "now listening to" tweets that come through my page on my legitimate twitter accounts ALL DAY. So I would say to anyone who would condemn the TWAAMERS or the twitterblaster.com program or any other autoposting twitter software for what it does... "Take the log out of Twitter's eye before worrying about the speck that is allegedly the twitterblaster.com autoposter software." Twitter has more than enough ACTUAL UNSOLICITED TWEET SPAM being sent from users to go around for quite some time... and so,... in the spirit of open discourse... let me ask all the ORGANIC tweeters a question here (not to be rude... because I do respect their opinion - as these days, I am now one of them - and I am glad there is some open discourse on the subject)... but here is my question...

What exactly do you DEFINE as TWITTER SPAM? TWAAM?

Because as far as I am concerned (and really, as far as the common sense and legal definition of spam goes), anything that unsolicitedly "plugs" something to the Twitter community, including a "song someone is listening to" a "service someone is using" a "cool website someone just found" a "new book that is so good" a "video on net the that you just have to see" a "great place to travel to or stay" a "weather report" or whatever... ANY plug for some piece of information that was unsolicited to begin with before someone STARTED FOLLOWING IT is BY DEFINITION, SPAM. But really, the word "spam" (if look it up in the law books) only applies to email transmission. So technically it isn't spam at all and NEVER WILL BE until laws are changed,... but let’s continue the discourse assuming that the "spirit" or "intent" of an unsolicited tweet is "spammerous" in nature (if that is a word)... so let us come up with another word... how about... TWAAM? (The double 'A' is so that it still feels right phonetically)...

And the fact that twitter.com tries to market itself as a "micro-blogging" community is really the thing that opens the door TO people trying to PLUG things. People PLUG things in their regular blogs ALL THE TIME. so why not PLUG them in a micro-blog? What's the difference? People don't need to read them if they don't want to, just like people don't need to read someone's normal web - blog if they don't want to surf to it. And the weak attempt from Twitter's marketing at trying to DIFFERENTIATE a TWEET PLUG from a TWAAM is truly, truly hypocritical. Let me give you all an example. Currently, careerbuilder.com has a twitter account (or maybe more than one,... who knows)... and in their tweets they send out job alerts.

But careerbuilder.com is a big corporation that makes money when people list jobs with them and when people fill those job openings using their service. So essentially, CAREERBUILDER.COM is using TWITTER to MAKE MONEY by SENDING OUT UNSOLICITED MESSAGES TO AN OPEN COMMUNITY ABOUT THE PRODUCTS IT SELLS. End of story. And that,... my friends... IS THE DEFINITION OF TWAAM (or "spam".. to put it in email terms). If we got these tweets in our inbox on a daily basis, we would call them "spam" and filter them into our respective junk folders... so PetLvr... can you tell me,... since Twitter obviously allows careerbuilder.com to tweet all day long and never bans them (or any of the other businesses who are peddling their music, wares, services or websites)... what gives them ethical justification for banning accounts created by the twitterblaster.com program? Can you really put together a logical argument that explains why that is NOT a double standard? I welcome discourse, but I do not believe an argument CAN be made. What is allowable for one should (in all fairness) be allowable for another. It's a moot point anyway though, because Twitter has ALREADY ENCOURAGED THIS SO-CALLED TWAAM in point 5) under the General Conditions of their Terms of SERVICE where they say (AND I FREAKIN' QUOTE)...

"The Twitter service makes it possible to post images and text hosted on Twitter to outside websites. This use is accepted (and even encouraged!). However, pages on other websites which display data hosted on Twitter.com must provide a link back to Twitter."

And even more incriminating to Twitter, is that nowhere in their Terms of Service (that I can find) do they even state that Twitter user accounts are to be "limited, one per one individual"... nor would they EVER want to do this, because then many businesses would STOP using twitter as a legitimate mode of communicating in real-time between different properties or persons.

So you see... Twitter created the environment of an "open social micro-blogging community where people can simply broadcast their message" and then they "encouraged linking to outside sites" and along the way they have let MILLIONS of users PLUG/TWAAM everything from music to websites to job recruitment to airplane parts (yes, I saw this once)... and many of those user accounts have been around for years, unbanned. I still see them today. And there is NO difference between an unsolicited PLUG for something and TWAAM... EXCEPT!

The moment other people on Twitter start FOLLOWING someone's tweet PLUGS / TWAAM (whatever you wish to label it)... they have essentially SUBSCRIBED to that TWAAM message/thread. They are OPTING IN (if you want to use legal jargon), and twitter.com is the happy facilitator of this giant opt-in network of TWAAM! That is the uncontested truth of the matter. So at that point, for Twitter (as the creator and facilitator of this community) to step in and say "Hey! You're not allowed to subscribe to THEM! Only careerbuilder.com is allowed to get followers and send TWAAM to them! Screw you little guy! We're going to suspend that account of yours so it can no longer send messages with the information that all of the other twitters users who are currently your followers CHOSE to subscribe to! We the founders and moderators here at Twitter.com are super-smart mind-readers, and we KNOW for a fact that those followers really DON’T want to hear what you have to say, and were not thinking straight when they subscribed to your tweets,… so to help them out and re-educate them, we’re DECIDING FOR THEM because they’re stupid and don’t know what’s really GOOD for our community. So we’ll quietly suspend your account and after they don’t get messages from you for a while, maybe they will un-follow you. Die! Die! Die you rogue independent thinker! DIIIIIEE!"... when Twitter does this, it is nothing more than the selective, hypocritical censorship and theft of people's free will,... because AFTER ALL... the people following those twaam tweets CHOSE to. No one forced them. And they can unsubscribe at any time. No one made them DO anything. So the point is,... Twitter encouraged twaam the moment they encouraged ANY type of plugging. It is still encouraged in their own Terms of Service. To say now that they want to just go around suspending accounts (which IS what they do) is a very hypocritical and fascist approach to moderating their alleged "community (which is a term that I will hold loosely) and really quite insulting to the people who CHOOSE OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL TO SUBSCRIBE TO THOSE TWAAM TWEETS. It shows a real lack of regard for an environment of users making connections (business-minded though they may be), and it treats users like infantile social-misanthropes who should only be using twitter to tell the world that they are "thinking about getting a haircut", or some such drivel... and when I say this, I really do mean it. There are some Twitter users who come up with some really cool, none twaam type posts. I have seen some amazing poems done in less than 140 characters and have heard the funniest jokes from some folks on twitter. I am not trying to TAKE anything away from those folks who grow their followership base "organically" (if that is how one prefers to couch it). But it is wrong to apply one standard to some and another to others when half the users on twitter are twaaming "organically" and a few decide they would like to do it the smart way and let software do the dirty work. It doesn't even violate their terms of service. If anything, suspending accounts that have followers (who are people who CHOSE to follow) is a real act of capricious piracy and fascist control on twitter's part. Maybe they should go talk to careerbuilder.com and some of their other big corporate tweeters before they start crushing the brave, one person bloggers out there who are trying their best in this economy to get some traffic to their blog without a VP of Marketing's six digit budget. Either that, or maybe twitter should never have created a "community" which encourages "plugging" things in an unsolicited, broadcasting manner to random people you don't know, in the first place. The point is, be fair. Treat people equally. It's just a thought.

Either way, twitterblaster.com (or any of the other numerous twitter blasting tools) are just that,... tools for their intended purpose. They are not a "magic bullet" that somehow reverses or subverts twitter's current, whimsically-fascist, subjectively-conjured, and (by comparison to big companies doing the same thing) thoroughly-hypocritical, account suspension edicts. Be fair. They are just tools in the e-marketer's toolbox, used in an online micro-blogging community that (apparently) encourages their use.

And one last thing before I slink back into my cave and kiss my beautiful spouse and child goodnight (ooooo! the monster has a family! that's right!)... for all you judgmental, "purist" twitter tweeters out there who just want a nice place to "connect" with people and tell them you're "thinking about getting a haircut"... here is a wild suggestion... why not GO OUT to a bar or coffee shop or community event or church function or party or volunteering group or nursing home or long-lost relative's house or friend's place or speed dating event and REALLY CONNECT WITH SOMEONE IN REAL LIFE. And when you are OUT THERE, why don't you try and be witty and SAY to someone you are meeting what you would have tweeted online? No?! Of course you won't. And I know why. Because most of you are lonely. It's okay. There is no shame in it. You are lonely... and "tweeting" some inane, barely-funny comment about what you're watching on TV, to some random people who don't even know your face or hear your voice or get to know you,... doing this from the safety of your little solitary shell at home, within your comfort zone,... somehow makes you feel sociable and funny, when couched into the neat, cute-sounding package of digitized text called a "tweet",... while at the same time mitigating any risk of rejection and/or someone looking at you in real life and thinking that you're lame because real life tweets aren't always so cool or funny or endearing when they're not surrounded by the super-anime-esqu visuals of your pimped out Twitter homepage. I get it. I understand it. And some people are better at meeting and connecting with others for real than others. But really, you need to wake up and do what's right for yourself. Twitter isn't giving you any REAL connection to people... it's just barely scratching the surface of what any NORMAL person would call CONNECTING. It's just a telegraph of cold and randomly broadcasted blips,... when you could have a face-to-face conversation or even better, a face-to-face argument! THOSE things are REAL connections,.. good or bad. And not to get all "Fight Club" on you tweeters out there (and I am going to really show my soft side here)... but please don't keep isolating yourself from the type of connection you really need,.. because (not to wax too deep here)... the connection you THINK you're making on twitter, isn't really what your (or anybody's) soul really longs for... and you'll only get lonelier. In fact, twitter is just WEAKENING your ability to "receive a charge" from the connection an "leap into" those emotional risks that every human being NEEDS TO TAKE. I dare you to stop tweeting for one week. Unplug. Go out. Take a risk. Tweet at someone in a coffee shop in real life by just saying "Hi!" The dull, digital spark of an online "connection" that you can barely hear in a room so noisy with twaam, is NOTHING compared to the warm thrill of a REAL connection with someone standing in front of you who is smiling as the two of you meet for the first time. Or hell, whatever. Don't listen to me. I am just a cruel seo e-marketing monster. Just keep doing what you're doing so people can send you disingenuous twaam and you can tell other lonely people with weak emotional connections about how your cat just attacked the TIVO and then got bloated after eating 6 year old PEZ. Sounds sweet. I'm sure you'll get fulfillment doing that. Hooray. Your life is funny yet deep. People think you're cool. Just tweet your head off.

But maybe it isn't twitter that is dying,... maybe it's just our ability to connect with each other for real. Just a thought.

The online marketers are taking over folks... they're around every corner these days. Everything online is geared to funnel you into making someone's buck. Don't believe?

Here's an excerpt from a blog that was recently suspended on WP a while back,... but I managed to snipe it and I post it here for you all to read in abject horror... here it is:

-----[BEGIN]-----

So the question is, "Are you making on money online?"

No really. Are you making any money? Do you make ANY money online between Stumbling and Digging and watching that crazy YouTube video and updating your MySpace and your Facebook and chatting with your friends on those sites and tweeting to your twitter followers and updating your iGoogle and Netvibes and Friendfeed and Plurk and your Mixx account... do you? Do you have anything to show for it other than a few hours a day of being harmfully detached from the real and important physical world while you "jack in" to a fictional, alien, cloud of users who you think know you and care what you ate for breakfast? Would it interest you to know that those people you chat to,... that half of them aren't even real? I would know. I'm their king. An emperor of sorts. I watch as these little spawnlings are born into a haze of IP-digital noise and as they slither their way with horrible accuracy across the net, determined to accomplish their only task... their one vision...

...to talk to you and make you feel like they care.

And every now and then,... I build a new hive. My latest is a masterpiece. And the monsters that pour out of it,... magnificent!

But back to the question of making money on the internet... that is the question everyone wants answered, right? How to really make money on the internet. For those of you who do not care about that, you may stop reading my blog now, because really, it is of no use to you. Go back to your various digital sanctuaries that we invade on a daily basis and pray for us to leave and never return.

But,.. for the rest of you... how to make money? The simple answer is,... "selling something".

The more complex version of this answer is,... "Selling or reselling something that you yourself are selling from your own website or that you yourself are an affiliate seller of."

The most comprehensive version of the answer is... "Doing one or many different flavors above, but somehow generating enough trending or buzz or knowledge about your website and/or product, and hence... driving that traffic to your website because people will either 1) Search for it based on one or more keywords, 2) See its name repeated over and over and over again in their favorite online communities and wonder what it is,... and then go search it,... or 3) Spend a TON of your own hard earned money online and promote the hell out of your site and hope you can break even and or profit in the long run."

Obviously number 3) is a real pain, and only experienced, professional online marketers who are willing to take this huge risk and have a huge budget will opt for that one.

I am one of these. I have the means and the budget... I ought to after a decade. Watching your Paypal account rake in nearly $4,500 a day from your empire of digital malcontent is a pleasing site. Honestly, at this point, the money is only one of the things that makes me smile. It's good to be king.

But in answer to the question... let me take a moment to focus on number 2)... how do you get a brand name or the name of a band or the name of a product or the name of a new website or the name of a new trend or the name of a new idea in front of a whole bunch of different people in an online community so that they start to wonder... what IS THAT? I am answering this question for those of you who would one day BE king... because the truth is... in this game, you can onle be king for a little while, before someone hungrier and leaner and more dedicated steps up to dethrown you. It's a lot like Scarface.

So for all of you who REALLY want it... the answer, in my humble opinion,... is Twitter and twitterblaster.com.

Here is the lame paragraph or two for noobs: Twitter is a micro-blogging community where people create their own user accounts and then "tweet" at each other all day long. "Tweeting" simply means broadcasting messages to the entire Twitter community about what you are doing or about what you are interested in or about your general mood or about something totally off the wall or gross or whatever. Tweeting is just writing a little blurb and sending it off to be seen by many and (in the chaotic noise of Twitter's "main hall" on their site,... possibly seen by no one. Ironically, the similarity between an actual human user tweeting and one of my precious little autoposter-pesters doing it is alarming. Both come from the cloud. Neither is perceptible for long and no one can really tell who is real and genuine and who is not. So why sign up with Twitter to tweet as a human or an online marketer?

Simple.

People will follow fellow tweeters on this site who have unique/funny/informative/cool tweets and... also, people will tend to follow other tweeters who are following them. Do you see what I am saying? So here is what you do.

Create a Twitter account.

Start tweeting to people on Twitter.

Starting "Following" different people. As many as you can. Follow anyone and everyone from any walk. Try doing searches on peoples' keywords in their Tweets to follow people who you think might eventually be interested in what you have to sell.

Once a few hundred people start following you, then you are in a position to broadcast messages to them about whatever it is you are promoting or selling,... the key being... don't "hit them on the head with it". Instead of tweeting "Buy my horse-dividers! Only 49.95!" , tweet something like... "Sweet! Finally got the horse divider I was looking for for like 3 months at horsedivider.com... price wasn't too bad either but whatever.... so psyched!"

The second tweet sounds much better and more genuine. Let's face it, marketing is deception. And to deceive properly you must be sincere. Monetizing tweets is the highest form of this artistic deception but there are many ways of doing it well.

Okay, so without you even saying it, I know your next question and/or objection...

But it takes FOREVER to get people to follow me! I'll be here in front of my screen until next Labor Day! Isn't there a faster way?

Yes. It's brand new. And quite frankly, I do not know how long it will last before Twitter discovers it and starts implementing some type of countermeasures. And you can find it at twitterblaster.com.

I have been using it to do exactly what I just described, but instead of just having one Twitter account that can rack up a following, it allows you to create many, many, many twitter accounts, and then it allows you to follow thousands of people very quickly (within hours) which then creates your own reciprocal following of about 400-500 people within a day, per account.

Currently I have 40 accounts, each with about 500 people following me. That's 20,000 people I can broadcast a "artistically deceptive and genuine marketing message" to to promote and eventually sell something. And my list keeps growing.

I mean seriously,.. can you think of a website, or a band, or an event, or ANYTHING that wouldn't want to have its name mentioned directly to 20-30,000 people? Not to mention the online trending that occurs when that many posts about the SAME name of something are generated over a certain period of time. It fuels trends and then more and more natural, organic "real" tweets occur about it. I've seen it happen over and over again.

Oh, and let's not forget that many Twitter users link the people they follow to their cell phones so that your Tweets go directly to their phone via an SMS message. How awesome is that?

Not only does the twitterblaster.com software do that, but it also fully integrates with tweetlater.com, which then gives you the ability to setup a whole bunch of fake tweets that then get distributed and sent to all of your followers in all of your accounts automatically over a period of time that you determine so that means...

You guess it! You don't even have to be at your computer tweeting at all. It takes almost no time. And that's the answer to the time question/objection.

Okay, just for any other questions (which I know will come my way, since people tend to think that I am a Twitter expert when really I am not)... last tangential question that I know someone will ask so I will answer it now...

Are there any limitations to the software?

The only limitations are that Twitter has placed a 2000 follower limit on new accounts, until your account has more people following you than you are following. This has nothing to do with the software. It's just s rule that Twitter uses. The solution? Simply delete people you are following who aren't following you... or, do like I do. Rack up 1500 follows with the twitterblaster.com software and get 400-500 followers and then just make another account. It's super easy. Super fast.

There it is. And now you know the secret (or at least one of them - A whole lot of my guerrilla e-marketing friends are going to be ticked at me if they see this post,... but what the hell! It's my fifth Vodka Tonic! And I felt generous tonight!)

So go download the software and start broadcasting. Secret's out. See you on Twitter. Cheers!

Love and Loathing,

the Emperor

Check out this guy's tutorial on it. It's what got me goin'...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY-e4zSuuJc

And there it is. Use it. Profit. Or become internet lunch.

-----[END]-----

And there it is. Apparently this is what is going on... bye bye Twitter. We hardly knew yee.

Sniff.

It is true, the more people who follow you on twitter, the higher your twitter profile PR (page rank) goes,... and of course, the higher your page rank goes, the more weight your tweets (messages) and links (if you happen to embed links in your tweets) will have,... aside from those obvious answers, let's see what a cold-blooded, professional online marketer thinks about "why everyone should want to" get more followers on twitter.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY-e4zSuuJc

Other Reasons?

1) It's easy, compared to trying to get people to follow your blog. Writing blog posts every day,... day in and day out is labor intensive. Micro-blogging on twitter and then getting more followers is the smart way to create a market following.
2) It makes a LOT of money! How? Easy. Imagine that you have a twitter account with 1,000 followers. Then imagine that you send out just one tweet a day (in the midst of three or four tweets that you may make every day),... and imagine that this one tweet has link to some product, service or signup form that you are selling (our you are an affiliate of). If just one person clicks on your link per day, you could be making between $10 - $150 per day! Now imagine having 2,000 followers,... or 5,000. Do you get it now?
3) It's automated! You don't have to sit there at your computer for hours on end,... slaving away and writing endless streams of gibberish, all the while hoping that someone will read your tweets! No! Not at all! In some underground e-marketing circles, special twitter autoposter software has been developed to not only automate the process of posting your money-making tweets, but also to automate the process of getting 100, 200, or even 500 followers per DAY! That's right! You heard right! There now exists software that can get you more followers on twitter than ever before!

Don't believe me? Would it surprise you to know that many college kids are using the software showcased in the video above in their spare time to make $200 - $400 per week doing next to nothing! If you skipped the video, here it is again:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TY-e4zSuuJc

And the funny part (or ironically sad part... depending on your perspective) of all this, is that most folks don't even know that this is an easy, legitimate source of income! think of how many people's house could have been saved in this recession if they had just signed up for a couple of affiliate programs (doing a simple Google search for the term "affiliate program" returns about a hundred of them), used the software to create account after account after account on twitter (until they had 50 or even 100 different accounts, each with 1,000 followers!), and then simply sent out a few tweets each day and made their $1,000 or more per week. It is true, up until now, there has been a shroud over the "how to" part of this easy money-making racket,...

But not anymore! College kids, stay at home moms, and even seniors are all using this newly revealed software and with rumors that twitter may even get bought out in a year or two, there has never been a better time to make hundreds of twitter accounts, and thereby own some SERIOUS internet page rank profiles with thousands of followers!

Are you contemplating it? If you have a pulse, you should be!
