This article is about how to create Twitter followers. As a long time Internet marketer, I’m always cautious about jumping on board with new trends. I prefer to look at things from a ready, aim, fire, approach especially if a new trend appears to be very labor intensive. Recently I have been reading about and looking closely at Twitter.

Finally I found out a close friend of mine was having great success creating his...

How to Twitter or how does one Twitter is a very common question these days? I found an excellent book review by the L.A.

In the review they suggest this book really helps, “make sense of Twitter.” One of the interesting items of note is the discussion in how companies can and have used Twitter for online reputation management. I hope you enjoy the book!

What I find interesting is people are claiming Bing is growing market share at the expense of Google but the data shows this is not true. Despite their multi-million dollar advertising campaign, Bing has only taken...

Comscore.com released their latest update on the market share of the major search engines.

Microsoft Sites grabbed 8.4 percent market share,...
