There are some great ways to market on Twitter and other social sites - one of the newest is TweetROI, which seems to take a more solution-led approach, so it'll be interesting to see how successful they are. (Disclaimer - my 12for12k project is using TweetROI as a testbed for tweet success in raising non-profit awareness).
Which makes the methods of RevTwt seem less effective if there's no targeting, just hit and hope methodology instead.

Hi Danny,
I got a tinyUrl from another twitter user for http://bit.ly/2lXlAc which was http://revtwt.com/. My first thought was, wouldn’t this get me booted for spamming! I searched, and yours was the best information I found on this operation. It is a shame because some companies have found legitimate ways to connect with their customers. Big Thanks and a new Follower @AutOrphan ... See all content Hide content

What other ways are there to market on twitter. I use twitter to lead prospects to my video. Places like twitter, facebook and even youtube has helped me create traffic to my videos. Nothing that has caused me to announce social media the new thing. I think I am just using it wrong. I'll have to say, I get the most traffic from posting my videos free to http://www.Adwido.com because of the targeted traffic they create. ... See all content Hide content

If they were going for the bigger players, they messed up with me as a choice - I'm just as average as the next guy. Now, the likes of Chris Brogan, Guy Kawasaki, etc... there's your big players right there ;-)
I think Twitter will survive - people are simply blocking approaches like this and tailoring the effectiveness of their stream to suit. Which, in a self-regulatory kind of way, will see approaches like this diminish. Hopefully.
Thanks for stopping back and sharing your thoughts, KJ, appreciated. :) ... See all content Hide content

I think this is def the wrong way about this Danny. This is spam or robots or small army doing this "promotion." This is def aimless. They have chosen either bigger players in the social world, like yourself , to try to get a bite, or they have just selected everyone to come to that site. I was just saying that Twitter is a great tool that will get results. ( When done the correct way) This "campaign" is going to to be death of Twitter if they cannot get a grasp on it. ...

And if done properly, you will get results.
Looking at your website and the marketing page in particular, you mention:
When it comes to marketing, you can’t afford to throw darts aimlessly and hope to hit a bull’s eye. A successful company needs a strategy.
Would you say that the method in question discussed on this post was aimless or strategized? Seems the results - Twitter accounts blocked, domain for sale - speak for themselves. Which makes me question the marketing or advertising behind this particular "campaign". ... See all content Hide content

The sad thing is that many spammers are getting ever more clever with interspersing what appears to be real conversation among their spam messages, making it all the more difficult in deciding who to follow back.
Here are just a few of the bio lines I've seen duplicated in numerous accounts that are a red flag:
"I'm an ordinary people who are using twitter. I'd like to collect useful twitter tips and categorise them properly."
"This the land of trick,here you find some trick about wordpress,google adsens,twitter,joomly,seo firefox."
"Discuss Yoga, Discover life, tell you YOGA STORY,YOGA DIARY,YOGA KNOWLEDGE,WEIGHT LOSS,BEAUTY"
"Here you can Find all about Cooking Fans, pictures, photos, videos, fans, biography, reviews and everythings." ... See all content Hide content

True, and I do it too. In order to learn how to do things we need to see how not to do them. It does usually feel like starting off on the wrong foot, though. Why not highlight good examples, models to follow? ... See all content Hide content

Oftentimes discussing how things shouldn't be done allow improvements and ways for how they should be done to come to the fore though, Peter, no? ;-)

I get this kind of twitter spam, too (who doesn't?). I try to ignore it. Not that ignoring it will make it go away, head-in-the-sand style, but the more attention you give it, the more it will perpetuate itself. Conversations about how things can be done for everyone's benefit, rather than how they shouldn't, tend to be more pleasant. ... See all content Hide content

I'm beginning to wonder if TwtAd was hit too often for the same messages being sent out, and the result is a name change to RevTwt? That would kind of make sense if Twitter is banning accounts that are spamming.
The thing is, if that is the case, why would RevTwt want to repeat the same mistakes? ... See all content Hide content

This is becoming more evident in the Twitterstream. You will see that they do not even stagger their post with Tweetlater of whatever software they are using. I have seen in the public timeline up to 5 accounts hit with the same message, very easy to figure out what is happening here. I know that Twitter is starting to block same messages being retweeted from an account I was doing a twitpoll and ran it for a post every 3 hours for 2 days I wanted to get a certain number of responses and twitter blocked some of them. All so I was helping a smallbiz consulting company with a survery on tool development software and a couple of my posts were blocked.
Everyone is learning as we go on what works and doesn't your example is a fail all over. Shortcuts really don't work in the longterm and for a solid biz they need to look longterm not short. ... See all content Hide content

Whatever they're doing, it's clear that they know very little about the conversational nature of Twitter. They actually thought they could just create a bunch of fake accounts and spam out the same message?
In the end, they all look like asses and - demonstrated by your post - that's what people will end up talking about. Poor them. ... See all content Hide content
