TWITTER TIP – HAVE A WEIRD NAME? HOW TO CAPTURE THAT TRAFFIC

Posted by seanmalarkey on January 15, 2010 at 6:41 pm.

Do you have a weird  name, or one that is commonly misspelled?   Here is an important tip to make sure everyone who is looking for you – finds you.

There isn’t a week that goes by where someone does not forget the “e” in my last name. My last name is “Malarkey” not “Malarky”.  I used to search my name that way to see if people were misspelling my name, and sure enough they were. I can only imagine if  my name were more complicated.

So I registered that handle and now I capture all of that traffic.  I tweeted one tweet from the misspelled account to re-direct the traffic. See the photo below.
