SocialScripter for Free Promotions

Ever since Experts Column stopped taking traffic from short url services such as bit.ly and goo.gl, there have been many good questions raised about how to promote our articles on social networking sites like Twitter. The purpose of this article is to address that, and help everybody get back to making money as usual. I am going to tell you about a legitimate way to promote your articles on Twitter, while still following the rules of Experts Column. Like anything else, it takes time to set up, and I can even help you out with that, if you find it is something you can not do, but still want it done to your articles.

I am going to tell you about a way to automatically post to Twitter with content from your article that has a link at the end of your sentence, or article exerpt. Of course, separating each sentence of each of your articles is the most time consuming part of the job, you can get a program like Tweet Attacks to generate the tweets. Then you add the link to the end of each sentence. You will end up with about 10 tweets for each article after you meet the 140 character limit for Twitter tweets.

Now that you have your tweets made and all on one notepad with one tweet per line, you can open your browser and go to a site called SocialScripter. It is free just sign up and add your Twitter and Facebook accounts. Then you can write your script. The script I use looks like this:



#start
[tweet] !
[tweet] ?
[tweet] ,
[tweet] .
[tweet] '

#tweet
"sentence here" link here
"sentence here" link here
"sentence here" link here
"sentence here" link here
"sentence here" link here

Then I make the settings to post how I want. This script can post 5 times per day, so you will have to make multiple scripts. My scripts are named something like "account" "article" "set #" So to be more plain English it would look like this: carmaster-when to change oil-part 1. Of course most articles have more than 1 part since you can only post 5 times a day per script.

Once this is all done you can see how many times each script posts in the Social Scripter stats page, or you can just watch your earnings and stats rise from the real traffic you are getting from Twitter and Facebook in your Experts Column account. The entire URL is posted to your article, not some random short link or even a t.co link. So there is no question as to the website you are promoting in your tweets. This also adds "link juice" to your articles because it is actually posting the real link, and not giving it all to a site like bit.ly.

I hope this helps you get your earnings back up since the recent policy change here at Experts Column. Even though it was not a very welcomed change, I can say that it is better for the website because of the whole "link juice" thing. Google LIKES Experts Column, so let's do our part (as authors) to make Google like us more. Hopefully we will not just get screwed out of our legitimately earned money again.

Happy earnings!
