this is awesome, another marketing person "mentioned" twitter but i had no idea how to use it.  now i can go crazy on it.

but does me following people mean they will follow me? or is just like marketing and those that realize i'm following them check me out and see if they like me? know what i mean like if i follow 100 people, hopefully they check me out and maybe 20 follow me back.

It means when they login to Twitter they will see your latest "tweets" or updates. Some people you follow may decide to follow you. That's why it's always good to reply to helpful "tweets" and make comments when someone posts something useful. It's all about networking and getting involved.

This probably one of the best, if not the BEST video you've done for marketing a website. I didn't even know what twitter was until now (what is rss by the way). And it may sound kind of stalkerish, but I do follow your youtube vids and blog and website (websites now) frequently for updates. I was wondering where does all of Blog content come from...or what makes you blog about specific things...and how can I, someone who is still building traffic come up with creative topics for my website...

Thank you. RSS (really simple syndication) is a functionality that allows other people to follow your web content via a feed. All blogs have an RSS feed that people can subscribe to. To read the feed you need a reader. Firefox has one built in and there are many free RSS readers on the web.

I generally get ideas for my content from my forum, email questions and my own experiences with marketing my own sites.

That was very helpful. If I reply to someone will they see my post on their page? Can I do that to people I'm not following?

If you have a multi language blog do you have to create different twitter accounts with different emails?

Thanks in advance.
