Twitter is a mini-blogging service, which allows people to connect to each other through small messages of less than 140 words. Like any other social networking site, its basic purpose is to keep people connected. Since people can also use twitter from their phones, it has witnessed a phenomenal growth. People are now finding ways of making money through it, because of its increased popularity.

The entire concept of making money through Twitter, works on building a network of followers. You have to build your niche market by tweeting about a specific subject of your interest. Those who find your posts interesting may add you to the ‘follow’ list. This ensures that as soon as you ‘tweet’, your followers will come to know and can see your posts. Your followers can also subscribe to your RSS feeds to update themselves about your actions.

Once you have a good number of followers, you can easily use your followers for advertising or affiliate marketing. As soon as you tweet, your followers will come to know and many of them may click on what you have posted. So, you can earn money by sending links of your client’s web site. You can also try direct marketing, to make some money. Since these followers are interested in your postings, they may also be interested in the links that you post. But you have to be very careful with marketing. If people feel that you are not adding any value and are using twitter as an advertising and money making tool, then they will un-follow you and it may impact your earning potential.

As in the case of web sites, the success of twitting finally depends upon how much traffic you can generate. The more the number of followers you have, the more is the likelihood of them clicking on the links that you provide. This in turn, increases the chances of successful leads to your clients and thereby more earnings for you.
