Tonight we’ll be discussing various ways of attracting readers, highly targeted and shotgun effect, to your blog. We’ll also add the caveat “without spending any extra cash” as on buying clicks or placing ads that cost more than you want to spend.
Ken Cook will be facilitating and you will be bringing the knowledge with you. We’ll have about 6 statements/questions as topic starters and the conversation, as always, will get lively from there.
You will need a Twitter account to participate but you can watch without one at http://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23tuethun although the best way is with a third party application like http://tweetgrid.com/grid?l=1&q1=twitter&q2=%23tuethun or by going to http://tweetchat.com/room/tuethun where you will not have to enter the hashtag (#tuethun) every time you tweet!
See you there.

On Tuesday 10/19 we will talk about what to expect from tracking, how to track, how to respond to what the community is saying about you and share some examples of how it has succeeded and failed for others.
Many thanks to Warren Whitlock and his Amplify on “Top 10 Ways to Make Twitter Your Brand’s Best Friend” which you can read at this link.
If you have never joined up in a live chat in the Twitter stream it’s really simple. There are multiple tools to help you track and join the conversation and as sure as I mention a couple there will be people who tell you why the one they use is better – and it may well be! Personally I use TweetGrid (http://TweetGrid.com) and set the panels 1 high by 3 wide … you’ll see when you get there.
I set my left panel to monitor @TheKenCook, the center panel to monitor #TueThun and the right panel to monitor whatever else I am into that night …. #Yankees for example.
Very simple to use is TweetChat.com and follow #TueThun. If you don’t know about # hashtags you’ll learn quickly! You do need a Twitter account to join. They are free from http://Twitter.com and you’ll need to be logged in. It’s really about that simple. You really can’t mess up!
