twitter overtakes msn as driver of traffic to cheezhead
May 1st, 2008
I’m officially a Twitter believer. In checking traffic from last month, the microblogging platform overtook MSN search as the No. 6 driver of traffic to Cheezhead.
What’s more, Twitter-generated traffic looked at almost twice as many pages, stuck around about 4 minutes longer and bounced 12 percent less than visitors from the nation’s third largest search engine.
Up until recently, much of my defense for using and loving Twitter was anecdotal. Not anymore. The numbers don’t lie. If Twitter isn’t part of your marketing strategy, it probably should.

Jason Alba and Paul DeBettignies shamed me into trying Twitter. Signed up this week. I’m at http://www.Twitter.com/StevenRothberg. I hope our results prove to be as good as yours.

joel, I reread your defense for using twitter and I am convinced against my will! It’s not the traffic — it’s the rationale which is dead on.
So where did you win your domain and care to tell what domain you won?

I twitter too - sometimes and sometimes I forget! More and more I am reading about people twittering - it will be interesting to see where it takes us.
