Twitter Now Deletes Search Result Tweets

If you’ve been frustrated at all over deleting tweets that never should have gone then discovered that those tweets were searchable on Twitter, a recent report by TechCrunch should make your day.
That deleted tweets won’t show up in search results any more may not seem like big news to you, rest assured that it is very significant news. Now that Google and Bing are including tweets in search results, that means those deleted tweets won’t garner any SEO and rise to the top of the results at the search engines, taking away search engine optimization mojo from the tweets that deserve it. See the victory now?
I only wonder what took so long. I know Twitter doesn’t actually have anything close to an operating budget yet, but some things should just be put on the priority list. At any rate, I’m glad deleted tweets won’t show up on any more search results – at Twitter or the search engines.

Is all tweets valuable? Are all of them worth getting indexed and searched? Are serious people looking for some little unimportant statements?
Twitter can help a lot, but comparing it with search engines is a mistake from the outset! Each one has got its own charm.
The worst mistake will be to hesitate if you’ll be found on Twitter! I’m more concerned about being found at search engines for my keywords.

Good points, I too am more concerned about my search engine positioning that Twitter at the moment…
