ProBlogger on How Twitter Helps Bloggers

9 Benefits of Twitter for Bloggers

Darren Rowse wrote an excellent post on ProBlogger today about “9 Benefits of Twitter for Bloggers”. In the write-up Darren, a recent convert to Twitter, explores several ways that Twitter can help bloggers, including:

– improve the quality of blogs
– network with other bloggers
– widen readership
– grow a blogger’s profile
– drive traffic to blogs

Twitter is still by far the social network I use the most, including many of the ways outlined by Darren, like using TwitterFeed which I have written about in the past.

UPDATE: Darren has posted a follow-up “How to Use Twitter – Tips for Bloggers”.
