You know how social media strategists love to talk about branding right? Well, over the months we have discussed about ways to brand ourselves on Twitter with customized Twitter background and bio descriptions. Now MarketMeTweet offers a new alternative to maximize our exposures through tweet-branding. Meet TweetBrand — a handy and effective tool… oh! Did I mention it’s FREE too?
How Does TweetBrand Work?
Let me make this easy for you, noticed the squared area that’s usually filled by Twitter application names like Tweetdeck, Web or API?
Well, not anymore. With TweetBrand you can now place whatever terms you like: organization or company name, your blog name, your niche subjects… anything that will help to attract like-minded audiences. You can predetermine the landing page of the backlink as well ! Here I place ‘Social @ Blogging Tracker’ as my brand name and a mouse click at it will direct people to my blog. Imagine the benefits I will gain from this tiny modification:
- The ability to brand my tweets with a descriptive name. In this case, Social Media & Blogging related subjects are my priorities.
- Increasing exposure with higher chance to meet with like minded individuals or potential clients.
- Clear niche-identification without being intrusive. Followers can click the backlink at will without me DM them to do so.
- Retrieve the backlink and attention you deserved on Twitter.
I was testing out this application two days ago and immediately it was recognized by my Twitter friends. They are wondering how my blog name can appear on all my Twitter status?
Therefore, do not underestimate a minor change for it may do wonders to your business. Your company or organization name can be spotted instantly on various Twitter platforms, let it be web apps or desktop clients. It’s a chance to stand out from your competitors and be ahead of the game.
How To Configure TweetBrand to Brand Your Tweets
Basically, you need to register a new application to retrieve consumer key codes which later be used to activate the tweetbrand installer (adobe air application). The configuration may be a little tricky but if you follow the instructions carefully, you’ll be tweeting from TweetBrand in no time:
1. First you need to sign up here in order to get the free download file. Upon receiving the email, click the link as instructed.
2. You will be asked to sign in to Twitter in order to get your consumer key and secret code.
3. Register a new application while in your Twitter page. Fill up the required details and save it.
4. Once the application is ready, you will be given consumer key & consumer secret code which will be needed during installation (Step no.6).
5. Now you are ready to download TweetBrand. Follow the instructions and proceed until the app is successfully installed to your PC.
6. Login with your TweetBrand registration details. Paste in the consumer key & secret code (from step.4) before integrating your Twitter account(s).
7. Sign in to Twitter and grant access for the application you created. A Twitter Pin number will be displayed. Copy & paste it to the box and hit ‘Apply’ to finalize the process.
8. Now, you can start tweeting with TweetBrand!
Here are several features you should know:
- Paste the long URL in the tweet box and click ‘Tiny URL’ to shorten it (Of course, you are free to use other shortener services as you pleased).
- Tick ‘Replies’ will reveal the conversations directed to your username.
- Tick ‘Friends’ will display the real-time tweets from the people you followed.
Have fun trying out the application and start branding your tweets today! If you’re hoping for more advanced features, you’ll be interested to know about 7 Features to Brand, Market, Manage with MarketMe Tweet.

Are,
Thanks for visiting. Hope Tweetbrand works wonder to your tweeting approach as well. Let me know how it went.
Ching Ya!! That sounds like a perfect, perfect thing for me!! Well, obviously for a lot of people. I would download it now except I am on my cellphone typing. The house Internet Is down. We have had some wild winds– yesterday our power was off from 3:00 to 7:30 pm, talk about a funny Christmas Eve for a while!
I like how you mention this Tweetbrand shows a blog link, could for sure bring in more blog traffic. And sounds simple too, a great first step for me to expand my Twitter experience.
Thanks, and Merry Christmas, hope yours was a joy-filled one!

I’m so glad you plan to give Twitter a try in 2010. Sounds like Tweetbrand is a great choice for you as well. You go for it girl! Have a Merry Christmas and a splendid new year.
Wow cool application
But i am already using twitter user name as my blog name so its sufficient for my blog , but also i can also use some specific keywords which are related to my blog
Q :Tweetdeck can collaborate with Tweetbrand and give this option in it’s application only
What do you think ???
.-= Sunil Jain´s last blog ..5 Things to know before creating a blog =-.
Actually this is not related to tweetdeck BUT we’re developing an app which will be released in late january that will be the ultimate twitter tool and will allow branding as well! stay tuned!
.-= Tammy from TweetBrand´s last blog ..Happy Holidays from the Team! =-.
Oh that’s great Tammy
But the application which you are coming up is free or paid one??
[As i had read on your blog , Tweemeback is a paid application
]
.-= Sunil Jain´s last blog ..5 Things to know before creating a blog =-.
Well, yes i do concede we are trying to make a living. But we’re talking nominal money. Really. For a single account it’s $15/month. And it does much more than management – branding, @reply following, keyword following and more. We hope it will become a no brainer for people who want to get the most from their twitter account. But open to feedback too! Let me know what you think!
.-= Tammy from TweetBrand´s last blog ..Happy Holidays from the Team! =-.
This application is good to hear , i liked it features which you have told . This can be a tough competition to all other desktop clients like Tweetdeck,Seemic,Twhirl and many more.
My Idea : I think you can give this application to all bloggers and marketers for a week try to get a valuable feedback and i am also interested to try this application
.
If you liked the idea of then its good or else you can stick on to your marketing plan

Hi Guys, yeah it doesn’t have to be your blog name, it can be a call to action, our tweet brand account has ours as ‘TweetBrand, Brand Your Tweets!’ which works well, as well as you an includes exclamation marks, etc, multiple words, it can be anything you like.
Glad you like it!

I should add it’s probably best practice to keep it shorter than tweetbrand, brand your tweets. we were just testing it. We’ve found a better response with just using our website actually
.-= Tammy from TweetBrand´s last blog ..$30,000 a year promoting an application? =-.
Ching Ya, I’m really excited about this! I downloaded it and followed the instructions. I made two tweets from TweetBrand, but so far I can’t see them in my Twitter stream. Not sure what I’m doing wrong – or perhaps there is a delay? I know I’m signed in because I can see my replies. Hmm… I’ll check back later.
Thanks for the introduction – this program has a lot of promise!

You should give it a try. Do let us know your experience and how did it work for you. Thanks for visiting. ^^
Thanks Ching for this useful and informative post. TweetBrank looks cool to me. I am new to this application. I have never used it before. I think this is a must use tool for those who believe in self branding.

I was attracted by the concept of personal branding that I gave this tool a try.
Not bad at all. At least they have discovered a new area in tweet-branding.
Thanks so much for visiting. Do have a fruitful year ahead.
wchingya,
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I’m glad you enjoyed that Dale Chihuly video with the cool music.
As far as the Tweet-branding is concerned, I can see where that might drive traffic and generate interest in a site.
As you may know, I was the victim of identity theft and someone posed as me on Twitter. To make a long story short, I badgered Twitter for 27 days and they finally closed down the impostor account that was using my face, my blog link, and my screen name (one letter off). It was quite an ordeal.
Once I finally got Twitter to close the impostor account, I cleaned out my own account (manually deleting thousands of tweets first). More details on this saga are on my blog and are yet to come there. I still haven’t had the time/energy to do the story justice but part of the story is there.
The point is that I took the time to clean my account out before deleting it for a reason. I had been on Twitter since 2008 and was sorry to leave it in many ways but, in the end, it was the only logical choice for me.
I’m glad that Twitter is working well for you and that you are finding ways for it to work even better for you.

Jeanne,
Thanks so much for sharing your Twitter experience with us. Indeed, it’s scary enough to have impostor messing up the account and left us with ruined reputation. I’m so glad the case has been finalized but too bad you have to leave Twitter as well.
Sigh.. your case is a wake up call. Will follow close on your post update regarding this issue.
I still am not a twitter fan particularly and despite all these tools I haven’t found it to be particularly useful or valuable in any particular way. I am willing to be proven wrong.
On the other hand, this tool seems logical and effective branding is always a good thing. Thanks for point it out to a total twitter noob.

Very cool! I am still far from being a Twitter pro but every tool like this helps me get there and I would probably never have found this one if not for your blog post.. so.. thanks!

I’m sure there is room for improvement for TweetBrand. Perhaps someday we’ll have more choices and installing client don’t have to be the ultimate option.

Ajinkya,
You’re welcome, glad you found this information useful. Personally I think it has great potentials and do give it a shot, it’s Free too.

Ching Ya,
I finally updated my story yesterday regarding the Twitter impostor incident and Internet security in general. Since you obviously have many Twitter users that read your blog, I just thought I would mention that I have written several posts regarding identity theft, Twitter impostors, and Internet security.
I don’t mean to be a “downer” in any way and I’m glad that Twitter is still working well for you. When it worked well for me, I loved it. Unfortunately, I got to see the dark side of Twitter. The good news in that is that I can share my story with others to, hopefully, prevent some people from going through what I went through or at least have a better understanding of the importance of Internet safety… on any site.
Happy New Year!

.-= Jeanne´s last blog ..Online Identity Theft =-.
Jeanne,
Thank you so much for letting us know about this issue. Truth is, I too think that identity theft is an important issue not only on Twitter, but on all social media sites as well. Will look into this subject, hopefully can do more research about ways to prevent or secure our online presence too. Will be needing your expertise then too.
Happy New Year to you too! Keep up the good work always my friend.
I am going to give it a shot, I signed up. I like Tammy’s video, very powerful email marketing list building tool.
Ms Freeman,
That’s one good observation! She does make it convincing enough for me to actually try it.
I really liked the sound of this tool. Unfortunately, I’ve got an older Mac G# so I can’t download Adobe Air and thus I can’t access the tool…YET! I’m upgrading to a Macbook running 10.6 in about a month! Looking forward to making it work then. Thanks for the tip!

Hi Ching Ya – thanks for the info – very useful!
All the best from Robin
Thank you Robin,
It’s so great to see you here! Hope you have a great start in 2010 so far. Looking forward to seeing you again.
I have tried this once via John Sullivan’s post about it, unfortunately my high expectations as a software or app reviewer wasn’t completely satisfied. The delays in tweet status made me give it up.
The interface is just okay however installing an Air-based app without seeing much user menu other than sending off tweets isn’t that appealing unless in the future they could come up with something similar to TweetDeck.
Those are just my observations. I didn’t write a post about this app thinking that it still needs a lot of space to grow which I’m sure would happen in no time.
.-= Mathdelane´s last blog ..Blogging Mafia: Do They Really Exist? =-.
Delays in tweet status? that’s the first i’ve heard about this. I think it must have been a twitter issue b/c it seems to be working great now
I need to emphasize… tweetbrand is a free mini application. It is a prequel to our main application and you can read more about that at our development blog
Thanks so much for the feedback!
.-= Tammy from TweetBrand´s last blog ..Happy Holidays from the Team! =-.
Mathdelane,
Thanks so much for these useful observations.
I’m sure TweetBrand developers will jot these down for future improvements. Appreciate you sharing your opinions.
Nice application and rather important that it is free
I like freebies and would give it a try, thanks

Ching Ya,
Another great tutorial, but the comments are even better! My takeaways: I’ll wait for the upcoming new “reveal” in 2010, and hopefully it will be web-based. I do wonder if there is any way that people will be “over-branded,” but my gut says no. I especially like what Alan pointed out that the signature doesn’t have to be your brand, but a call to action. Now that’s real sales or nonprofit mission call-out potential!
@askdebra
.-= Debra Askanase´s last blog ..Professional Goals for a Social Media Strategist =-.
Debra,
That’s very true indeed, I love how you emphasize on ‘call to action’. I’m actually quite excited about how social media apps will evolve in this new year.
Readers are all very helpful to voice out opinions and I learned so much about needs in social networking from the comments! I am now even more eager to dig up info to match their requests. Nothing is more exciting to get new ideas from outspoken & useful feedbacks.
May the power of social media continue to grow and benefits all, especially non-profits.
The more ways to help out the organizations the better!
TweetBrand is a cool tool. But the downside is installing the client.
Nevertheless, it’s a good alternative to tweet using your URL.
Ching Ya, thanks for sharing.
Happy New Year and Have a Great Year ahead!

Hey Louis – definitely looking for feedback. What part did you struggle with? For the record tweetmeback (the main application) will be a heck of a lot easier – tweetbrand is our free option and is the most basic of branding/marketing tools

.-= Sire´s last blog ..What Is This World Coming To When It Comes To Morals =-.
They really should! Great idea and definitely something all the big, established twitter applications should implement too.
Right now, I use the good ol´ copy/paste using HootSuite as my main twitter app, but tweeting out messages from TweetBrand…
.-= Lars Tong Strömberg´s last blog ..Yes, Twitter advertising using TweetBrand works! =-.
Sire,
That will be a dream come true!
I wonder how long we’ll have to wait though. I guess the more attention TweetBrand gets will surely alert Tweetdeck and others to integrate that as well. Let’s hope so.
Lars,
I’m working the exact same way but using Tweetdeck. lol.. yeah, I’m starting to get used to the routines: RT, edit or copy, paste; then Tweetbrand.
Thanks guys for visiting, it’s wonderful to have you two here as well.
You too copy/paste? In my case, it´s actually one extra step: I use HootSuite for tweeting but bit.ly for URL-shortening. Since HootSuite has not integrated bit.ly (only their own ow.ly which I don´t like), I shorten all my URLs with Bit.ly. So when I tweet now, I use 3 apps: HootSuite, Bit.ly, TweetBrand…
Guess who would cheer like crazy if I could find the same functionality in one single app?
.-= Lars Tong Strömberg´s last blog ..Yes, Twitter advertising using TweetBrand works! =-.
Hi Ching
I have to be honest I am really behind on Twitter. I don’t have a background page not much of a bio or anything. I basically use it to tweet my posts. This is interesting though. I should probably take some time to personalize my twitter page. With Tweetbrand being free thats cool. Free is good and it sounds like a good tool. I’ll have to check it out.
Wow you have a lot of information here. I’ll have to take a look around
Thanks

http://tongstromberg.com/2010/01/07/twitter-advertising-tweetbrand/
Quite positive about the idea (not often I am about advertising on Twitter…), but the TweetBrand application as such not too impressive imho.
Hey Lars… as we’ve said… this is a freebie – we have more in store and hopefully ching ya will write about it when we release it
.-= Tammy from TweetBrand´s last blog ..Functionality of Tweetbrand and Best Practices =-.
Lars,
Nicely done. Thanks for sharing your view about this application.
Btw, great to have your participation in the comments, glad to have you.
Tammy,
I will. Can’t wait to check it out.
Tammy, I will definitely check it out once you release it!
If I were you, I would for a more full-fledged app look for i) the user interface and easy of use of HootSuite including scheduling tweets, ii) URL-shortening integration with not only tinyurl, but bit.ly + a few others as well, iii) and of course the great functionality you already have developed with TweetBrand.
Of course, that is quite a wishlist and I guess there are neat functionality to look for in Seesmic and TweetDeck too, but above would be my “dream twitter app” at the moment.
.-= Lars Tong Strömberg´s last blog ..Yes, Twitter advertising using TweetBrand works! =-.
[...] better you could do if you had a REAL blog? Don’t believe me, as some of those bloggers like Ching Ya who have made the [...]
Hey Ching Ya, hope you don’t mind me asking but Tweetbrand has been nominated for a “shorty” award so I just wanted to post the details here
http://shortyawards.com/MarketMeTweets
All you have to do to vote is tweet “I nominate @MarketMeTweets for a Shorty Award in #apps because (then list reason!)
Wouldn’t it be cool if a free little app won something like this?!

No problem. Tweeted.
Hope Tweetbrand will win.
Very interesting and useful application, Hootsuite doesn’t turn the “api” comment into a link (which bites) but at least Tweetdeck does.

You’re right as it does take time and patience but once you’ve built up the network, everything will be worth it. Hope you’ll consider to try Twitter if it’s relevant to your blogging goals. Thanks for commenting.

interesting! thanks for sharing this step by step guide on how we can brand our tweets. It does help to personalize each of our twits, and I think its a really cool idea.
