Been looking all afternoon for a tweet scheduler that can make posts with a random variable for the time. For example, load up 200 tweets and post every 30-120 minutes, or 12-24 hours, etc.

Also, what are you using these days to auto follow people that post certain keywords or to follow and reply to people that follow you?

Seems Twitter has a much stronger anti spam policy in place these days and tools like Hootsuite don't have any of this kind of automated functionality built in.

If you would like to share but at the same time keep your secrets on the down low, please PM or Skype me. If you have a custom solution, I'd love to hear about it.
 


As you probably know, TweetAttacks was the KING of Twitter marketing - that is, until it was abruptly pulled off the market several months ago.

TweetDemon is not only an EXACT clone of TweetAttacks, but it has been dramatically improved with new features.

One of biggest changes, is that TweetDemon now includes the Account Creator inside the program - Literally built-in to the software. More importantly, TweetDemon allows you to open unlimited instances, to have each one doing different tasks with your accounts simultaneously...

So how long do you think this TweetDemon will last?
 
Frankly, I gave up on automated software... I've used tons of them (including TweetAdder and TweetAttacks which I fucking LOVED) but in the end they got raped and I'm lucky they didn't suspend any of my accounts... and that's what will happen to ANY automation software that is going to mess up with Twitter's valuable bandwidth. It's just a matter of time.

Now I use legit apps like TweetDeck and HootSuite. I create multiple streams to track specific keywords. For example, I have a client that sells "Monitoring Software" for iPhone/BlackBerry/Android, etc... so I set up streams to track the keywords "lost my phone", "bought a new phone", "got an iphone", "can't find my phone", etc... (about 25 other keywords) and I set the geolocation to U.S. only. Every morning I follow and tweet to these guys manually. Takes a few minutes of my time, but I know that this is legit and I won't get raped by Twitter for doing it...

That will take care of the scheduling.

Problem with this is that you need to specify the date and time for every tweet. You can upload a csv file with 200 tweets in it which is cool, but I was hoping for something a bit more set it and forget it. I'm generally a lazy fuck.

Certainly a concern if paying $300 and it up and stops working in a week. If I got a few months out of it I wouldn't be so bothered.

Excellent tips. I'd rep you but I'm all out. I'm going to guess it would be fairly easy for Twitter to ID people using such an app?

Any other tips/tricks, please keep em coming.
 
All sorts of automation geeks and fanboys on WF, but the truth is, social done properly, isn't easy to automate. Tools can make it easier to manage, but the whole point of social is engagement, and anything which tries to be social by being anti-social is not only contradictory, but it's probably not going to work well.

Yeah, you're probably right. Might just end up having to eventually hire someone to manage this properly. That Tweetdemon looks pretty sweet, but these aren't burnable accounts and I don't want to jeopardize them as much as I want to automate this as much as possible in the meantime.

Keep the ideas flowing though. I've never really utilized Twitter to it's maximum potential so I have to play a bit of catch up.

You might want to check SocialOomph too. I use it to automatically DM new followers a simple welcome message like: "Thanks for following. Looking forward to your tweets." with no link or commercial intent to sound as legit as possible.

Also, I add a "New Followers" tab on TweetDeck and every morning I check the new profiles that followed me. I look at each one of them and I send a tweet to anyone that I feel could be a potential client (to start the conversation).

Again, takes time... but it works. That's what I do for my clients because I don't want to jeopardize their accounts. I've used tons of blackhat tools for my own personal accounts but frankly it didn't get me much in the end. Actually it did get me a few suspensions. Some of them got lifted. Some didn't.

Sure it looks cool to have 20k [random] followers, but 200 quality followers that will respond to your tweets and RT your content are so much more valuable.

just posting what I read here

Full disclosure: I have no real interest, financial or otherwise in the product. In fact I dont plan on buying it, purely because I think i think however twitter got the servers got killed which destroyed the first product - would probably affect this as well.
 
If you want to automate it by yourself I'd reccomend ZennoPoster. It has inbuilt scheduler and allows you to create/customize twitter accounts on autopilot.

I'd hope so considering you work for/own it.

Nice try, Zennodude.

^This is the long term solution.

What I don't understand is that Tweetdemon devs are limiting copies, yet by having a name/brand for their product, their still gaining popularity and simultaneously leaving the backdoor open for Twitter to track them down.

$300 is steep, but I'm sure previous successful TweetAttacks users will have zero problems making that return.
