Thank-you for the write up on Twittad.com.

A little bit more info on what we have built. Advertisers can now search via keyword into the users personalized pages on Twittad. They can also search via demographics (provided by Twellow.com). As well as being able to search via Twitter users location.

Matt, you bring up a great point. The ads are not clickable. However, within time I believe that stats of visits to a users profile page will become available. At that point we will be able to build a more effective way for advertisers to measure ROI (atleast on a impression base).

Another 3rd party application that shows the background image from your Twitter profile is TwitWall.com. I invite everyone to check that out. This gives advertisers another site where they would get a ad serve through using Twittad.

Cheers-

I am going to let this idea simmer a bit. I'm not sure if I like the idea, don't really have enough info yet to form an opinion. I can see everyone's point though! BloggerNewbies last blog post..New Year Resolution?

Are you using this already Steven? Does seem odd that the ads aren't clickable, no way to track the effectiveness, but I guess advertisers will pay for anything if the medium is hot enough. If you are using it, would like to hear your first hand feedback. Matt Matts last blog post..Virtual and Physical Social Networking - A Web of Connections!

@Sheryl Loch: You’re right, it doesn’t make sense, but people are already paying for it as we speak. If they want to throw their money away, that’s fine with me.

I am not sure who would pay to put an advert on someones profile at Twitter. I seldom even see anyones profile page, and if it is just a text or graphic and not a clickable link then I am not sure it would be useful for anything but name recognition. I guess we will soon see if this type of advertising takes off or just drops to the way side. It will be neat to see. Thanks! Sheryl Lochs last blog post..Tweetdeck for Twitter

@webdesi3: Won’t take away from it at all. The ads are the background of the user’s profile. When you use twitter, you usually don’t see anyone’s profile but your own, so you don’t even have to look at the ads.
