The geniuses at IZEA have increased their portfolio by recently releasing a new product to make money on Twitter. This program, is Sponsored Tweets.
Sponsored Tweets is a new Twitter advertising platform that connects advertisers with tweeters. Advertisers can create sponsored conversations on Twitter. Tweeters can earn money for spreading the word.
Sponsored Tweets works as an advertiser/publisher medium, and allows advertisers to bid on Twitter profiles for sponsored Tweets. Twitter publishers are then paid when they post a sponsored Tweet, and through the clicks that are generated from the Tweet.
It’s very simple to use, brings great results, and is an excellent way to make money on Twitter.
How To Sign Up
One great facet of Sponsored Tweets is the ease of singing up for a publisher account.
- Visit the Sponsored Tweets home page.
- Click the Sign up button. You must allow Sponsored Tweets access to your Twitter account.
- Fill out your Profile information.
- Let the Sponsored Tweets roll!
Tweaking Your Profile
There have been many mixed reviews regarding the Sponsored Tweets system. Some report making great money on Twitter, while others, are struggling to receive offers to send out sponsored tweets.
The reason for this large variability is due to:
- Over-pricing of Sponsored Tweets
- Lack of Profile information
- Unknown brand or reliability
Sponsored Tweets gives a reliable suggestion tool for how much you should be pricing your Tweets. In general – this tool works well. Start your price at the suggested level and raise or lower based on the number of offers you’re receiving.
It’s also important that you take the time to fill out your profile information properly & accurately. Give the advertiser every possible reason to “hire” your Twitter account for their advertising needs.
A Word Of Caution
One important item I must mention, as a word of caution – is the overuse of sponsored and spam Tweets.
Take the time to analyze each sponsor offer – and ask yourself, “Will this Tweet benefit my readers?” In the long run, it’s more important to reject unrelated offers then to find yourself greedy – and accepting offers just because it will make you quick cash immediately.
Treat your readers with respect, and you’ll be sure to develop a community whom trusts your Tweets and information.
The Takeaway
Overall – Sponsored Tweets is a great way to make money on Twitter.
Thus far it’s reliable & works smoothly. I’m making a nice profit, and receiving positive feedback from my Twitter followers.
As long as your sponsored Tweets are balanced and related to your Twitter topic – the entire experience can become positive for both publisher and reader.

I have been with them from just after when they started. I have made a bit of money with them but not a huge amount. That may be because I set my prices quite low. It is all just an experiment at the moment.
Awesome !! I am totally agree , There is “The Twitter Traffic Machine” available.
This is truly an amazing system, one in which you can put something on TRUE autopilot and have it continue forward building your Twitter followers AND making you money daily.Thanks.
Love this post. How did you find out about it if I may ask?

Nice to hear of your success Gerri. It does take a bit of tweaking – but it’s worth it in the long run.
Nazim, I have no idea where I found Sponsored Tweets. Quite possibly from a news blog – if I had to guess.
I never liked the idea of making money from tweets, but Sponsored tweet is one of few programs which I actually liked…
Probably control over ad tweets is something which I always wanted..and since its been recommended by some big players..I dont mind trying it out…
Just signed up with over 1000 twitter followers on board, so will be interesting to see what happens!
