مع النمو المستمر لتويتر على مستوى العالم، ظننت أن الأمر مسألة وقت فقط قبل أن يقوم أحدهم بإنشاء سوق للدفع مقابل النشر. لذا إليك -- الدفع مقابل التغريدة -- كسب بعض المال عبر الإنترنت من خلال التغريد.

pay per tweet

على الرغم من أن الموقع لم يفتح بعد للتسجيل ولم تُنشر التفاصيل بعد، إلا أنه من السهل تخيل ما سيكون عليه هذا السوق الجديد:

1) يشتري المعلنون التغريدات بالآلاف (نموذج CPM) -- لنقل 200 دولار لكل 1,000 تغريدة.

2) مزادات Pay Per Tweet (PPT) للإعلانات على التغريدات وتكلفة كل تغريدة 0.10 دولار (تقسيم 50-50).

النموذج مشابه لـ Pay Per Post -- يشتري شخص منشورًا؛ ينشره شخص آخر ويكسب بضع دولارات.

Question is -- will it be just plain per-tweet or will PPT also consider the number of followers a twitterer has? We're already seeing lots of masked affiliate links on the Twitter stream. I'm pretty sure this PPT will eventually open the floodgates for more ProTwitterers.

Actually there’s already sites that’s been doing that and I for one have doing pay per tweet for months now. The pay rate is good and it pays weekly.

I agree with what vern said.
Sponsored Tweet = Unfollow

I think those people using twitter bots to add hundreds of followers each day will be happy when this one pushes through! :-)

For me I already started un-following those who tweet about adverts already.

this is a quick to lose your followers. it’s like receiving unwanted ads on your phone.

This would be interesting to watch how it will all play out.

If this really picks up, other lifestreaming services will follow suit.

I seriously don’t have any idea what Twitter has in mind to monetize their services. It’s the “IN” thing right now but I don’t think it’s got a very bright future ahead. And neither do these companies which rely on Twitter. Look what happened to Tr.im.

It would be hard for twitters not to view sponsored tweets as spam so I doubt this would take off. Sites like this and Tweetbucks would inevitably fail.
