Hi ZK,
SO much branding potential with the new twitter design. I updated my banner immediately, using a dramatic travel photo perfect for my brand. Check it out, if you look me up on twitter ZK 😉
Great post man. Tweeting!
Yeah, new design of Twitter comes with some good changes such as large header image, which is having a greater impact on brand popularity.
Also, Pinning a tweet to top is another good change to show most popular and valuable tweet to followers and twitter users. This feature is great in the sense of displaying some service, coupons, promoting a product with special features etc.
Also, the larger fonts and images make it more efficient to read tweets and recognize brands in first look.
One more thing that could have been better is “longer tweets”. As sometimes, 140 characters tweet seems less exploratory.
Hey Mr. ZK, it’s nice to be here on your blog. It’s my first time but I’m already in love with your blog and your style of writing. 🙂
Social media of course not be over looked this days and I must confess to you that most of my traffic comes from social media and that has been what boost my search traffic.
I do less of SEO but get the benefit of SEO from effective SMO. Now, there was a time when all my traffic comes from twitter as I had learned and mastered twitter trick from the many ebooks I read about the phenomenon.
I am not getting traffic from that means no more and that’s because due to some undisclosed issues, I lost that traffic from them but this post have succeeded in re-awakening the “Twitter Passion” in me and I will soon be heading back to that route.
