Twitterdoodle: Add Keyword Content To Your Blog Automatically
I don’t often recommend automatic content creation tools, but TwitterDoodle is one that I’d recommend, but not for every blog.
The idea behind Twitterdoodle is to stream keyword-based Twitter messages into your blog as posts. This adds keyword-based content to your blog, increases traffic, and boosts your search engine rankings. It does this almost like magic once you set it on automatic.
Let’s say you write a blog about dental services. You can set Twitterdoodle to search Twitter for keywords related to your dental blog. You can choose keywords like “dental services” or more specific kewyords such as “veneers” and “braces” and have those Twitter messages run through your blog, putting several messages into one blog post. You’ll begin to see yourself getting more traffic to your blog and higher search engine rankings for those keywords that you target.
Twitterdoodle also allows you to input certain Twitter usernames to opt out of the Twitterstream. So if you get complaints then you can take those Twitterers out of your content stream.
Is this a fair use of content? Some people, to be honest with you, don’t like it. They’ll call you a scraper. But if you aren’t selling advertising on those pages where the Twitterstream appears or you aren’t using other people’s content in other ways that give you profits at their expense then I see nothing wrong with it. The problem with streaming other people’s content is when you use it to their detriment or your unfair gain. Since anyone can gain access to Twitterdoodle and use it in the same manner to rank for important keywords, there is no unfair advantage.
Twitterdoodle is a WordPress plugin. If you are an existing client of Blog Content Provider, we’ll be happy to install Twitterdoodle and set it up for your for $30. Call Chris or Allen.
Twitter Tools: The Automatic Way To Microblog
Microblogging has become all the craze and Twitter is the leader in this realm. What is microblogging? If you do it the Twitter way, you write a little post of 140 characters or less. Twitter Tools is a WordPress plugin that automatically tweets your blog post when you post it. The message appears like thus:
namecritic New blog post: Disaster Aid: What Are You Entitled To? http://tinyurl.com/5urc56
It’s starts with your Twitter name, followed by “New blog post” and a short description with the URL to the post linked as a Tinyurl. Beautiful!
With Twitter Tools you can have one Twitter post automatically done every day with no effort. All of your followers will see it and the more followers you have the better off you will be to market your blog. But you have to have a Twitter account.
