If you are a Twitter addict, you will be knowing very well that Twitter imposes a 140 character limit on every tweet. This is just too less, not even long as a text message on your phone. What if you want to tweet something more than 140 characters?

Well, if you use TweetDeck, it also has introduces a service to tweet longer than 140 characters, Deck.ly is the link for others to read the longer post and  TweetDeck users can read it right inside the TweetDeck client.

Jumbo Tweet

So I was wondering what the solution can be. I came across a few good solutions during my research on this, and I’m going to explain each one to you, well, in parts though. The first is called Jumbo Tweet. Its a website and you need to use this web application to tweet, which is boring.

But anyhow, if you want longer tweet, you need to adjust with the situation. So, first, go to JumboTweet.com and you can sign in with your Twitter account to start using it. Hit the Sign In with Twitter button and you will be taken to the authorization page on Twitter. Hit Allow there and you are good to go.

Now, when the page is redirected to Jumbo Tweet, you will see a big text box, where you can type. Start typing there, anything you want. You can see that there is no counter starting from 140 characters and counting down for every character you type.

If you want to see how much you can type, just scroll down the page and you will be able to see the public tweets from others using the same service, you can see tweets which are almost a page long. So you don’t need to worry about the length, literally.

Once you have finished typing, you can hit the Post JumboTweet button below the text box. There is another option, Public (Show on JumboTweet Feed). You can check this (checked by default), if you want other users of JumboTweet to be able to see your tweet, like you saw when you scrolled down the page.

Once you hit the Post JumboTweet button, you have successfully tweeted the longest tweet on Twitter, you always wanted. There are a few other options, I’ll be explaining them in the future posts. So keep waiting, and keep tweeting.

EZ Tweets

Here is the next solution, ezTweets. You may ask, what’s the use of more than one solution when I’m doing the same everywhere. But, no. Each service has its own options, which vary from one service to another.

So what is extra in this? Well, first, its completely different than Jumbo Tweets. Here, your longer tweets are split into parts and then tweeted, with the part number and total number of parts. For example, if you have a message which is 200 characters long, ezTweets splits it into two, 140 and 60 characters respectively. And the first tweet will have (1/2) in it, while the second will have (2/2) in it. Makes sense, right?

Not only this, you can even post this message to your Facebook account right from within the web client. Isn’t this cool!! Lets see how to do it. Go to ezTweets.com and use the Sign in with Twitter button or the Facebook button, which ever you want, or even both.

Then, the usual Twitter and Facebook authentication will have to be done. Once you are done, you will see the big text box. Writer whatever you want. If you see below the text box, you have more options, like how you want the numbering of your tweets to be and more. You can select the one you want.

Once you are done, hit the Post button, and you are done. Wait for a few more services in the future posts.

Apart from the websites I mentioned above, I tried few other services as well. Got a couple of them and found that these are few other services which you can try to tweet more than 140 characters at a time.

Blogs Running Ads and Affiliate Marketing

If you run a tech blog then you can monetize the blog by Ads as well as using Affiliate links of products you review on your blog. If someone buys that product you will get a cut out of it. Similarly if you blog about any product in your niche which can be purchased online, you can put your affiliate links and make some money from it. I have been doing the same with my technology blog, I put my affiliate links on my top posts and I am also using CPC/CPM Ads on my blog.

Making money from these methods requires a lot of traffic on your blog. You can read how to get 1000 visitors to your post, within few hours of publishing it. Writing proper titles of the post also work well from SEO point of view as Search Engines are going to send a lot of traffic if you get top places in Search Engine Results.

Blogs offering a Product or Service

If you offer a service like Web Design, SEO, Copywriting, Logo Design or any kind of service on the web or sell informational products like an eBook or memberships, you can follow a different profit model, though the method of creating and publishing content would be same for everyone. Try to benefit from every piece of content that you write on your blog. These types of blogs don’t require tons of traffic in order to make profit. You just need to make an impact on every reader of your blog, try to be active on social media sites and distribute free tutorials etc. to promote your stuff out there. Rather than working on getting plenty of traffic, you need to focus on building your brand so that you gain the trust factor which is required to make a sale.

I have come across many blogs posting on various topics, I feel it’s a wrong way of blogging as you fail to make an audience which is looking for a similar thing, but you surely can monetize it with CPC/CPM Ads. You can read what you have been doing wrong in blogging.

Don’t know how to calculate it? Just divide the profit of your business with total number of hours you have worked in a specific period of time.

For Example: You make $100 by working 10 hours in a week. So every working hour made you $10.

This is an average figure; however, not your every hour made you $10. Some of them would have been a complete zero for you and some of them made you $50 or more. It totally depends of few other things like, how efficient you were while working, you were not distracted by anything, etc. Also, you must have spent some time chatting with people, tweaking your website’s design, checking traffic stats, split testing and so on. All these activities consume your work hours but don’t make you money directly.

Have you ever imagined what it would be if you had only worked on things that make you money, things which you are good at, things that actually matters and our source rest of your work to other people who do it for lesser price like $2/hour. Just imagine, if you save your hours which make you zero dollars and buy them for $2, you will be able to use those hours in stuff that makes you $50 or even more. This way, even if you are spending $20 a week for 10 hours of outsourcing works. You will be making $500 in a week by working 10 hours on things you are good at.

Well this might not be the actual scenario for everyone but it surely opens an eye about productivity.

Because time is what really matters. Working hard doesn’t mean that you need to work 50 hours a week, it all about productivity and consistency. Every big shot in any niche enjoys life and works less than a regular day job employee.

I want you to be the same or else there is no use of being your own boss if you are not able to enjoy your life on your terms. This is the high time and you really need to take things seriously about your internet business.

Getting Maximum Out of Your Time is a post from: AsioGroups.Com

If you are going to be gone for a while, like a week, you can still keep your blog updated regularly. If you want it to post once a day while you are gone, all you have to do is write 7 articles and have them post automatically while you are gone. This way when you go on vacations, your blog viewers will still get updated.

If you have a scheduled update, but an event so important that you have to update your blog immediately happens. You can schedule all your posts for a day later and post about that event on the day. All you have to do is go look at your posts and edit the publish time. An example for when you would do this would be if Microsoft came out with this software that helps you blog and you thought was just simply amazing and you had to post about it. While all the other blogs are telling their blog readers about it the second it comes out, you don’t want to tell your blog readers a few days later.
