Do You Have A Twitter Landing Page?

Writing by Nick Stamoulis Tweet

I heard of a good idea yesterday for you Twitter people. You know how your Twitter profile will only let you post 140 characters? Expand your profile by building a Twitter landing page on your website and link to it from your profile.

The benefits to doing this are two-fold:

• Increased traffic to your website from Twitter
• Increased followership on Twitter

If you optimize your landing page well for keywords related to your niche – not your name – then you’ll get additional search traffic to your Twitter landing page. You can even optimize it for Twitter related keywords in addition to your niche keywords. But the search traffic will help you build followers on your Twitter account. Make sure that you have a Twitter “Follow Me” button on your landing page.

If you are a good Twitterer then people will visit your profile page on Twitter before they follow you. They’ll click the link and see your landing page, which should give them more information about you than your Twitter profile can. Make it count because you can also give too much information and screw things up. A good example a Twitter landing page is this one by @Pistachio.

In summary, a Twitter landing page can lead to more visitors on your website, help with your search engine optimization efforts and generate more followers on Twitter.
