Five Twitter Tools for Social Marketers

September 21, 2009

Although anyone can Tweet, it takes some real thought and effort to make it a success for your business objectives. A good case study for this is my previous post covering Guy Kawasaki’s Twitter Tactics. Once you’ve got the plan, you also need the tools which begs the question:

What are your Top Twitter Tools?

Here are five of mine:

  1. An obvious but mandatory starting point is Twitter Search where I can quickly interrogate a particular topic or keyword
  2. TweetMeme is a great resource to identify influencers that I possibly want to target for retweets
  3. Tweet o Clock lets me figure out when someone tweets the most, to decide when I should contact them to most likely get retweeted. A bit rough around the edges yet but an innovative concept
  4. Palms Trend Tracker gives a nice visual presentation of Twitter trends over time and up and coming topics before they hit the top ten
  5. Tweetie for iPhone lets me stay on top of my twittering where ever I am

Bonus tool: TweetBeep works just like Google Alerts but for Tweets, great to stay on top of what people are saying about your brand
