    My reasoning, be it good or bad is audience targeting
    I have one for jokes
    People wanting the odd joke, are less likely to follow someone that also has a lot of shooting, fishing etc tweets
    Thats the theory behind it anyway.
    Logic is something I fall short on at times
    Most are run directly off rss feeds, but, by using the good old google toolbar and its tweet poster button, you get direct url links.
    If you look at this twitter account and check down the tweets, you will see the ones done by hand

    No bit.ly urls, straight links without a url shortener

    I use a website called socialoomph for auto follows
    Very small fee to use their services
    From memory, you get a thirty day free trial
    You can either auto message people when you follow back or just follow back
    If you auto message people, it can go one of two ways. It can bring in traffic or it can loose followers

    You can also get more traffic by posting a tweet from one account and retweet it from other accounts because retweet is a counted as a vote for every link.. This is more beneficial.. You can give a try.

    From my own testing, twitter must be one of the worst methods of building backlinks for the sheer amount of bad traffic that descends from AmazonAWS. Any muppet that can design a scraper and add twitter to its name has. Some of the retards have now run out of names for their bots and tend to run them with no user agent, due to their level of intelligence when it comes to using their brains. Add to that, they consider that they are above any courtesy to website owners by ignoring robots txt and adding no follow to all external links to the sites they scrape from and its become a retards paradise.
    My own testing is making me wonder if its even worth the effort of running any kind of twitter integration.
    For every link posted, you get on average 50 hits from the retarded bots.
    Under normal circumstances, that would be a lot of good backlinks and any website would be propelled in the search engines to high levels of rankings. Twitter, the resulting backlinks are about as much use as urinating directly into the wind.
    The place has become a kiddies playground with many in competition to see who can get the most followers
