This morning I was invited to participate in another social media experiment, it’s format, a Tweet sent to #MonTwit with the following;
“What I have discovered about Twitter”: my opinions _________ #MonTwit”
The blog post below was one of over 100 posts sent to (hashtag) #MonTwit. This post received one retweet @elliotschimel.
In addition I sent the following Tweet:

The Original Blog post I sent to #MonTwit;
I use Twitter to raise awareness of this new site. On December 16, 2009 I started an experiment to uncover the time and cost associated with getting a site found on the first page of organic Google™ results. As part of Google’s process they weigh click through, which means eyeballs. With a zero based budget, we turned to Twitter and posted this, “#inboundmarketing on a budget: Determining time and cost for first page Google organic placement http://bit.ly/5Egx1g” on the following tags #seo, #btvsmb, and #inboundmarketing.
There is no way we could of reached so many people in a short amount of time on any other platform.
The value to us was simple, eyeballs, it was a perfect blend of a request for involvement in a social media experiment and the ability to share a valuable metric that may be of benefit to one of it’s readers.
We were pleased this morning to awake to the number one organic position!
