    Who says tweets get indexed faster than content on any other website? With the volume of new content on Twitter every day, that’s hard to believe.

    You can’t post text links on Twitter? Of course you can… do you mean you can’t use alt text?

    It must be a typo while typing, not definitely faster than any other website, but twitter feeds gets indexed very fast. I am not really that sure volume of tweets is a matter of fact. That would be related with how many spiders are being sent by search engines and how many times in a day.

    Yep, you can post link back to your website but having a limited character problem requires us to use url shortening services.

  4. Well written, twitter is really good technique in promoting yourself or your own website. Thanks for sharing Mehmet and more power.
