One of the SWOM features that fascinate me is the twitter-SWOM connection feature.  It is a simple yet powerful tool that increases your twitter and SWOM visibility at the same time. It is like hitting two birds with one stone. It saves you a lot of time and potentially increases your online commissions.

     Whenever you post a message in your SWOM news feed wall, your message will also be posted in twitter after you connect your twitter account with your SWOM account. In addition to that, your twitter followers will feel your presence in twitter although you are just posting your messages in your SWOM news feed wall.

    One special thing about this feature is when your twitter followers follow your SWOM link; they will be considered your SWOM referral. How convenient is that?

    Here are the simple steps to start your twitter-SWOM connection:

STEP 1: Go to your profile tab.

STEP 4: Click on twitter “connect” to start linking your SWOM account to your twitter account.

STEP 5: Permit SWOM to connect with your twitter account.

STEP 6:  You will receive a confirmation message that “twitter was successfully connected to your account”. You can now start posting SWOM newsfeeds and tweeting at the same time!

     We can compare good relationships in the social networks with plants. We need to constantly water it and nurture it. Our presence with good faith is a must. Furthermore,   connecting your SWOM account with your twitter account increases your visibility in both social network sites. Since social networks are based on good relationships of group of people from across the globe, it is logical that you need to make yourself available to the people that you have connected with.

     Did you know that you will earn SWOM points every time you connect with the SWOM members? SWOM rewards its members for connecting with their fellow members. Therefore, it is safe to say that you have more points when you have more connections.

    In the real world, connections matters. This principle also applies in the online community. We can compare it with going in a war. This reminds me of the scenes I have seen in the movies about the fascinating medieval times. Where armies of elite warriors went on a head on collision until one of them survives. As what most of us inferred, the kingdom that has the bigger army is likely to survive.

     When you apply this principle in the online community, it is logical that you don’t go in the battlefield alone; you need an army to stand beside you. Thus, building relationships as you progress along the way is crucial if you want to get things done.

Here are the benefits of having more SWOM members that are connected to you:

1.       Gives you more visibility

Come to think about it, there will be more online marketers who will affirm your existence. They know who you are, the services that you are offering and what to expect. Your SWOM connections can help you stand out in raging ocean of the online world.

2.       Provides you with partners in the future ventures

No man is an island. No matter how skillful you are, other people’s assistance proves to be essential. As you grow in the online community, you may find new ventures to explore. This is the time your SWOM contacts will come in handy.

3.       Provides Credibility

If your performance is good, you will have a good reputation in the SWOM Community. As a result, more people will see you as an expert of your field. They will have trust and confidence in you that what you are sharing with them has a value.

    Coordinating and connecting with the SWOM members is a rewarding experience because you can receive free coaching in areas that you are having difficulty with or you can share what you have learned.
