The 4 Best Twitter Tools to Grow & Automate Your Account

When I first launched my blog and started creating social profiles for it, I scrambled to remember the password I set for the several Twitter accounts I’ve created over the years. Seeing as I rarely frequented Twitter as a teen in high school or even in college, I failed at that attempt and quickly found myself creating another brand spanking new Twitter profile – yippee! (Can you sense my sarcasm?) Not-so-necessary-confession: I’m not the biggest fan of Twitter. I’m pretty open about my distaste for Twitter because I think it’s important for bloggers to recognize that every social media platform isn’t going to be your best friend. It certainly hasn’t been that way for me, at least. As with most things in life, you’ll like […]

Your pin gets re-pinned by hundreds, thousands, MILLIONS of people (said in my best Dr. Evil voice). But wait a minute, hold up there. Maybe this isn’t exactly how things usually go down for you… Ever wish you could crack the code and figure out how to get THOUSANDS of people re-pinning your pins? If so, you’re not alone! I recently sent out a survey to my mailing list asking for feedback before I created my newest program, Pageviews from Pinterest. And you know what?
