Bobby say’s that:
TwitPub is a marketplace for Twitter so users can buy and sell premium tweets. The idea of premium tweets is different from normal tweets. It’s mainly for niche and quality content such as horoscope, gossips, jokes and stock tips. Initially TwitPub is aimed for established authors or content providers who are already rich with micro content to help them distribute in Twitter – e.g. just like from selling a book to selling an e-book. However, normal Twitter-users can can test this out too.

Following is an excerpt of the interview with the Bobby:

    We’re a founded by a team of Internet innovators. We challenge new ideas to redefine new business models. More details soon.
  • About the ROI of TwitPub?
    TwitPub business model is revenue sharing. We payout at least 80% to publishers.
  • What are the benefits of using Twitpub ?
    TwitPub allows established authors to monetize on Twitter and provide a new way to buy and sell content over the web and mobile. Normal Twitter users can try it too. Plus, registration is Free!
  • How it is different from the market of twitter applications?
    TwitPub is the First marketplace for Twitter so users can buy and sell premium tweets.
  • How you see TwitPub after 2 years?
    We hope TwitPub will continue to innovate more and support Publishers as a platform… Perhaps the leader in supporting established and professional publishers/authors on Twitter.

Twitpub also claims that :

For fans of Twitter and people who are already tweeting, this is a good way to be rewarded for quality tweets. And the best way to be rewarded is to be paid for it. TwitPub offers a generous payout of 80% and above depending on the volume of subscribers. Subscribers are people who pay to follow Premium Tweets. What’s more, pricing for subscription is set entirely by publishers. So for every USD 2.50 subscription, one is ensured at least a USD 2.00 payout. That’s not bad considering how all the payment system, technical support and system automation is provided by TwitPub. Subscribers can pay by Credit Card while authors can cash-out via PayPal or check.

If you just love being in front of the computer and yet you want to make some money, you may find what you are looking for in DigitalPpoint Forums. Remember, when you began in DigitalPoint, you practically have nothing in your pocket. So do not be picky. You can make a good dollar if you know what you are doing and if you are good at it. If you are serious about making money on DigitalPoint, you have to first register and be a member of the forum. It will be helpful if you create an account with PayPal since you are starting your own money making business in DigitalPoint. This will allow users or clients to send you money through the internet. If everything is set, then here are some tips that you can use to make your first few bucks in DigitalPoint. digitalpoint-money

  1. Earning from Adsense. dp1 DigitalPoint is an ad revenue sharing forum so you can very easily set up your Adsense account ID and channel ID in your user controls. You can edit your profile and start from there.
  2. Sell Yourself on DigitalPoint. This does not mean that you will literally sell yourself, but rather sell your avatar space. This space can be used as adspace by marketers or clients wanting to advertise their goods or services. It can also work for your signature, location and recent blog space. All these places can be linked to a website and serve as its advertisement and that is the reason why many marketers are looking for new people who will sell their avatar and signature space for linking. You can earn some pretty good money here, but you do have to be an active poster because your commission is dependent on the number of people who click your avatar or signature. Therefore the more posts, the more chances of people clicking onto your signature.
  3. Posting Services. There is a thread in DigitalPoint wherein there are several pay-per-post offers given by clients. The clients will pay you for every post that you have made and this can bring you a few hundred dollars every month is you really get to post a lot. For example check here
  4. Article writing. If you have a flair for writing, then offer this service to people who are looking for article and content writers. You will usually get around $5 per article which is about 500 words long. Do the math. If you make one article everyday, then you will be getting something like $150 dollars every month. If you have good ratings, then other clients will recognize you and ask for your services. More articles and more clients mean more money. For example check here
  5. Web design and Photoshop. If writers can sell their skills, so can people who know web design and Photoshop. There are a lot of clients looking for designers who can create pages and websites. So if you are quite knowledgeable with web building software and image/video editing, here is you chance to make more money online. For example check here

When you think about it, is it really worth all the effort? Again the key here is to not be picky, especially if you would like to go into avatar and signature link sales and pay-per-posting. These are the services that pay the least, but the posts are very easy to do and do not take up a lot of time. Always look at making money on DigitalPpoint in a more general scope.Do you know about any other golden forums?
