How to Use Social Media Networking Sites Like Twitter in Your Website Design

Social media networking sites like Facebook and Twitter are immensely popular, and while a lot has been written about the use of Facebook in website design, Twitter should not be forgotten as it can be very useful in it's own right.

For one thing, Twitter is big, with hundreds of millions of people around the globe using it to send messages or ask questions. More than 300,000 new users sign up each day, and Google, Yahoo, and Bing also use Twitter feeds in their ranking process. Many times a Twitter post will even show up on the major search engines. For website designers wanting to incorporate Twitter effectively, it is important to be consistent. Since you have fewer words with Twitter, you really have to concentrate on you keywords and make sure these are posted on your profile. Also you should add them to your website address (URL) location and other profile entries.
