This is especially true with new visitors with whom you have not yet had a lot of interaction. Twitter can be of help here by adding Twitter On Your Blog. Idea is to let people comment on your site without revealing their email address. Let them login with their Twitter account. If you are on WordPress, simply install the Simple Twitter Connect plugin to put Twitter On Your Blog. It is a very powerful Twitter Integration Suite for your WordPress blog. It works seamlessly with the Simple Facebook Connect plugin we talked about previously. Ideally you can have both options. You can allow people to comment with their Facebook or Twitter account.

Lastly, I will give you a very powerful technique to boost retweets on your site. Everyone loves giveaways and freebies. You can offer PDF reports or eBooks in exchange for a tweet. This means, people have to tweet a link before they can access your product. I would recommend using the service called Pay with a Tweet. Simply fill out the details and this service will create a Pay with a Tweet button with unique URL. Display the button on your site. Once people tweet the link you specify or share it on Facebook, they’ll automatically get a direct link to download your file.
Using Twitter On Your Blog is a great way to cross promote twitter and your blog.
