I have done this a couple times, and it works like a charm (what traffic is concerned). Have a look at these two videos below to see what I did to get the most traffic to my blog in its entire history.
Then, the next day I went and looked what was the results of my campaign. This was my most successful campaign to date.Z
Here is a screenshot of the posts rankings overall (in all its existence) [Don't look at traffic numbers, that's unfair, AP has only been existing six months or so].
Note, from only one days promotion in the method I have shown you this post have risen to the number 6 spot of the top ten posts of all time. Other posts using this same campaign are in the top 25. This kind of posting only works on the day the topic trends, because of the keyword on Twitter. You can do the same principle with Google trends or hot topics.
I hope I inspired you to do some creative writing around hot and trending topics and swinging them into your niche.

Remember Nasif. It takes time to build your Twitter account. There’s no magic fix. So also using Twitter for traffic. I’ll be sharing some other tools which helps with having an aesthetic traffic plan.
I use a combination of Dlvr.it and Twaitter.com to setup my auto posts and feeds, you can set times of day, # of times per week…etc. Dlvr.it is one of the best since it reads your feed and can send out latest feed updates multiple times per day but also send the update to all your SocialMedia accounts including LinkedIn, Facebook and not just Twitter at the same time.

What a great idea to have, Ivin. I’ll try this out myself during the month. Social Oomph is a good site to use to auto tweet with. The ocmpanies I sponsor tweet with might through a strop if I use auto tweets though so I might have to do it manually.
Twitter has always been a good source of traffic for me since I started using it.
