Do Twitter Backgrounds Attract New Followers? I decided NOT to add this post to Digg, StumbleUpon, Sphinn or any of the other social networks I normally publicize with. The only exception is that I sent out a tweet. Well actually, WordPress.com has a new feature automatically generating a tweet when you publish a new posts (I love WordPress.com). To my surprise the hits to this post on my blog sent my traffic stats through the roof. Ms. Ileane Speaks normally receives 20 - 30 hits a day but this post alone has received over 600 hits the first two days and several comments.
I did a search on Twitter and found that the Twitter account from a site called Tweet Smarter added a retweet link to a tweet about the post. In case you are wondering what this means, don't worry - I got you covered. Here's a 3 minute video explaining how it works, and of course it's free. Btw, you can add special characters to your tweets with this tool also. Check it out.

Indeed, this is helpful!
This is extremely helpful. It seems the that retweets are the key to any post going viral and this makes that process even easy. Thanks!
Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the comment and for stopping by. Hope to see you here again soon.
A very interesting post, different perspective but still catchy and informative. Overall its very nicely put, I haven't seen very much quality work on public blogs.
