5 Years summary: When Twitter first started out,

it took 3 years, 2 months and 1 day to reach 1

billion tweets. Today, it now less than 1 week.

The Twitter market evaluation stands around 8 to 10 billion dollars. Not bad for a social media marketing website in business for only 5 years.

Twitter has positioned itself great for the ‘busy person’. The ‘Twitter System’ is simple and easy to follow. Keep your messages short (140 character limit) and follow and be followed. It is very easy to ‘Follow’ people, and once you start ‘Following’ them, their updates appear on your profile. New information, deals, promotions and more, display in a clean easy to read format. This is a powerful tool for local business’, as information you want to get communicated to the masses does, in a 140 character blast.
