If you’ve had your head in the sand, you may not have heard about the latest online social communications tool, Twitter.
More likely, you have had the full intention of signing up to Twitter and investigating its capabilities, but just haven’t yet squeezed in the time to do so.
Well…maybe it is time you did so. Twitter already has an estimated 6-7 million registered users. That’s 6 or 7 million users that have already ‘taken up’ some of the best Twitter usernames.
What does this mean for you or your organisation? That you are in risk of missing out!
If you are serious about online marketing, it is advisable that you get in and register your business name before it is too late.
Sure, it could just be a fad…but Facebook was also a ‘fad’ that is having a lasting impression on social marketing. Plus, what risk is a free registration to a service that takes less than 5 minutes to set up from start to finish?
The growth of Twitter registrations is reminiscent of the .com domain name registration boom. Every man and his dog is madly signing up accounts and stealing business names – the difference with Twitter being that name registration is free!
Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Register for Twitter today, or risk ending up with the most ridiculous and unmemorable Twitter URL ever .
Oh, and it goes without saying that you can follow me on Twitter if you want to hear my short daily insights about anything and everything.

I don't know how big of an issue this is, does anyone know how often people directly try to lookup a business on twitter by typing in a twitter url?If you have a link to your twitter account on your website I think that is the most common way people find and follow you?

Hey there – I totally agree, I don't that the public perception of Twitter is mature enough to rely on people typing in your Twitter URL to find your Twitter page. Actually, having said that – will it ever be mature enough – just look at the number of people who use Google to find company websites!
So yes, the best way to ensure your target audience can find and follow you on Twitter, in my opinion, is to add a “Follow Me on Twitter” link to your site. Anyone out there disagree?
