Gets Twitter Followers and Makes Money with TweetAdder

This post is about a product called TweetAdder and was inspired by a  sale on Flippa.

The seller was selling their domain name tweetadderpro.com along with an affiliate account at www.tweetadder.com.

TweetAdder is a piece of software which automates the process of getting followers to a Twitter account. Because any message you post to Twitter is also copies to all your followers, the more followers you have the more people will see you tweets and the more powerful you can promote your product.

To quote some of the Tweet adder website:

"We have devised a twitter adder software that will increase your follower count in a very short period of time. In 30 days, I received 6963 TARGETED followers and continue to do so! I provided a screen shot of the proof of the programs effectiveness I have enjoyed in just 30 days of use. Where else can you get 6963 people reading what you post and/or following your links you suggest to them in such a short period of time without spending thousands of dollars in online marketing campaigns and then waiting for your network to slowly grow?"

The business model for tweetadderpro.com  is very simple. The domain is redirected to tweetadder.com and sales are credited to the sellers affiliate account.

Now the interesting bit. The site was started in 2009 and has been making over $1,100 gross per month on a consistent basis. The seller claims to have sold 672 units on their own and in addition they get  the income from affiliate tier accounts.

Affiliate tier accounts work like this. If you buy a product using my affiliate link, then some-one buys through your affiliate link, I get a small payment for  the sales that you make. The more people you sell to, who in turn make some sales, the more residual income you have. In this case your percentage of the sale someone else makes is 10%

The seller seems to be making money from web 2 sites (squidoo etc), a little ppc (yahoo), and mostly organic traffic from articles, bookmarkings.

At the end of the sale the site went for $9,000 which is a bit less than 12 months revenue, probably a bit lower than you’d expect as the sales look to be trending down a bit. Still a good chunk of change for a one year old affiliate site.

What I like about this affiliate program is that the underlying product appears to be quite good, genuinely helping people promote their business using Twitter. So it will appeal to lots of small businesses who wish to reach out to clients they may not have been able to contact before. It also appeals to internet marketers who ( like me) will readily part with $55 to increase their marketing reach.

And thanks to the site sale on Flippa we have as close as you can get to verifiable proof that the product sells well and the affiliate program is reliable in terms of payments to affiliates.
