Can I get SEO link-juice from status updates to Twitter using HootSuite?

Hi,

You can't get 'link juice' direct from tweets as they are indeed no-follow. However you can add a link into your bio or profile which may in fact be do-follow.

One way to generate do follow links from your tweets is through third party sites that import and display your tweets, so although you won't get page rank passed down from Twitter itself, you can get it passed from the third party site. Plus you get additional exposure and traffic from your tweets showing in more than one place to more than one audience.

A lot of the third party sites will also pull in your Twitter profile (and bio link) and give you link love.

Here is a list of a few of the sites, you may need to register with a few but usually they are free:

* LocalTweeps.com
* Tagwalk.com/site/domain.com
* TrustedReferral.com/profile/username
* Twibbon.com/username
* TwitDir.com
* m.TwitStat.com/index.php?userid=username
* TwitterStates.com
* Twitter.Threadless.com/user/username
* Twittangle.com/username
* Twitr.org/user/username
* Crowdeye.com
* Klout.com
* Plentyoftweeps.com
* Sency.com
* Twaitter.com
* Taweet.com
* Tweetworth.com
* Twiscounter.com
* TwitRak.com
* TwitReferral.com


Hope this helps...
