Sponsored Tweets?



Sponsored Tweets is a site that will earn you money by having - what else - sponsored tweets! In other words if you belong to Twitter you can sign up at Sponsored Tweets and then you can start tweeting advertisements from different advertisers.

You really have to be careful about tweeting ads though because Twitter frowns about people tweeting nothing but ads and you may risk losing your Twitter account!

Another requirement is that you have a minimum number of followers! When advertisers are looking for Tweeters they will look at your Twitter numbers including the number of people that are following you. Of course the more followers you have the better!

When you sign up you can decide how much you will want to charge advertisers but be sure not to charge too high of a price because you will not attract any or little advertisers!

There are also "cost per click" advertisers where you can earn money just like the Google Adsense program - where you earn money per clicks but unlike the Adsense program the cost per click at Sponsored Tweets is relativiely low - averaging about 3 cents per click!

However I was quite surprised to find out that after posting one such advertisement I got 3 clicks right away so I see some promise with this program.

The program will pay you either by Paypal or by check.
