Twitterize Your WordPress or Blogger Blog with These Great Tools

Twitter is the latest fad and arguably the most attractive social networking site among the group. If you’re a Twitter user and a Blogger, this post is for you. Twitter is a proven method sharing content with your friends and engaging in the community of Twitter users. It’s also a proven way of obtaining additional Blog traffic when used correctly.

Integrating your Blog with Twitter can enhance the potential for your content to be thrust into the Twitter community. Once your content is tweeted by someone who likes your link, they can Tweet it to their followers. If any of their followers like the content, they may retweet it to their followers, etc. You can see the power of duplicating the availability of your content through distribution. Below you’ll find some great tools to fully integrate your Blog with Twitter, whether you use the WordPress or Blogger Platform.
