Twitter has puts its expansion plans into gear this week: not only did it dump masses of spammers off people’s feeds this morning, but it rolled out a new guide to the service, aimed at businesses. After 3 years of buzz and no bucks, are the pieces coming together for Twitter to start making money?
Head on over to business.twitter.com and you’ll find an official guide, Twitter 101, aimed at businesses looking to venture into social media marketing, and stressing how powerful the connections they stand to make on it are.
What’s curious about the Twitter guide is that it makes absolutely no mention of any third-party Twitter clients, like TweetDeck – odd, given how open Twitter is in pimping out the API to its service.
Unless of course, Twitter is planning to bring out its own service for businesses, which it’s mentioned before as a possible way to make money. That’d chime with leaked documents TechCrunch found suggesting Twitter was planning to buy CoTweet, a Twitter client for companies. Either way, we’ll let you know if Twitter cracks this whole making money lark anytime soon.
