The TweetLater tool helps businesses and individuals manage their time on Twitter. This results in increased web traffic, exposure, and profits in the long run.

TweetLater is a web application for Twitter, the hot social media tool sweeping the world. What started as a way to connect with friends and family has become a marketing tool extraordinaire.

TweetLater allows tweets, Twitter speak for messages, to be scheduled ahead of time to be posted at a later date. It was created to make working with Twitter more productive, especially for busy professionals who want to grow their businesses.

Twitter and Web Application Tools

Twitter acts as a sort of text messaging system that doesn't require a person to answer in real time but when they want. It's free and easy to use. Users sign up and start amassing followers much like friends on other popular sites like MySpace or Facebook. Tweets posted are limited to 140 characters and can relay anything from what the user had for lunch to when the sales meeting is and everything in between.

As with so many of the social networking tools, new web applications have been developed to enhance user experience. TweetLater is quickly becoming one of the most used Twitter tools along with others such as TweetDeck and Twhirl.

Benefits of Using TweetLater

Why would anyone want to tweet ahead? This is seemingly contradictory to the point of Twitter's quick messaging system. However, this can be a welcome convenience for busy people. Below are just a few of the benefits of using prescheduled tweets.

  • Businesses both large and small can use TweetLater to post about sales and other promotions whether they are in the office or not.
  • Writers, artists, and business people can post inspirational daily quotes focused on one subgroup, i.e. famous author quotes by genre, success quotes, and so on. This draws traffic from interested followers through links posted on their profiles or in the tweets themselves.
  • It helps with time management and keeps promoting Twitter users even when they are out of town for vacation or business. Constant exposure leads to increased business.
