Twitter has become a very reliable news feed and micro-blogging platform since it launched in 2006. With so much new information showing up on Google globally each day the Internet struggles to index all of that content topically and relies heavily upon Twitter to help index that new content. This is one reason a new brand, book or author can quickly dominate a local niche or a keyword topic and start trending on Twitter.
Twitter is like the broad side of a funnel as you attract leads and potential customer’s and book readers. The entire goal of Twitter is to create online buzz and begin conversations about your book, business and brand!
When it comes to getting your book to #1 on Amazon, Wall Street Journal, USA Today or the New York Time’s Best-Seller List or any other list there are a number of things that go into creating a Best-Seller.
