homecook.me is open for business! 

We have been talking to Bay Area Farmer's markets, showing @homecookme and collecting feedback.  Most local small businesses don't have the money to spend on Google or Facebook advertising that most of the time only bring expensive clicks back to their website with no product to sell.  Most of their websites has static content about products they plan to sell on their respective farmer's market.  They are delighted by the fact that Twitter is free.  When Twitter marketing used correctly, it can increase your product reach and name in the local market place.  Everybody wants more business.  People like to spend money with businesses they trust.  If a local business name is popular and customers have heard the name before, they are more inclined to buy the product.  We are here to help.  We are ready to showcase customers on our homepage, describing their products.  We are also offering first month free subscription where @mytweetmark will help with all twitter marketing for your local products.  We will make a lot of noise in the local market and we will make you one of the first farmer's market success on Twitter!  You get lots of followers, lead generations, find other local businesses that customers want to build relationships.  We allow Facebook, Twitter and email communication between business and customers.  Please contact us today at bilal at mytweetmark dot com or shakti at homecook dot me.  We look forward to working with you.

I had a great time at South by South West conference in Austin this year, 2010.  It was truly magical.  I was able to go to events and meet my twitter mentors, shake hands.  It was like watching superstars right in front of my eyes.  Everybody super cool and open to chat.  I was making a lot of tweet bot noise across my 5 products, @mytweetmark, @viralfactors, @homecookme, @drspiritcom and @mytweetsports in my own profiles, so it doesn't really harm anybody directly, only if you are using search terms people will see them.  It was very positive because during the conference there was already a lot of noise, so my bots blended very nicely.  I was getting lots of followers and page views for my own profiles.  A lot of people at the conference knew who mytweetmark.com was because of the noise auto generated, while I was at the conference.  I was having great success in terms of marketing, free off of twitter.  It was a true success story for twitter that you don't have to spend a penny to be a visible brand. 

After the sxsw conference, my bots were continuing to tweet to my own profiles with #chirp in it as well.  Because of me tweeting, some other folks at sxsw were RT me, so it was beneficial for everyone.  It turns out it had a negative impact on #chirp users, to the point that only my bots were making noise and other folks amplifying them.  I got some tweets from other business folks mentioning that this was annoying.  As soon as I heard that, I stopped all bot activity on my side, which itself turned off RT. I really hope that the next 10 days could be valuable for the community to reuse the #chirp hashtag.  I love twitter and I really apologize for my behavior.  It was unintentional till realized.  I then stopped it immediately.  Cheers and really looking forward to a kick ass chirp!  If you don't know @jesus on twitter, you should.  @jesus, please forgive me

        

This is my monthly progress blog where I detail what I accomplished:

• mytweetmark analytics
• facebook connect
• facebook updates
• edit profile
• delete blogs
• delete hashtags
• market research
• investment options

My focus so far is to build a platform that integrates the best technologies, e.g. twitter, facebook, and involve mytweetmark as an interstitial to implement premium services.  The users might have to pay in certain circumstances where the value will be worth it.  Obviously viral is a key component so I want to make sure all these components are fully developed, before I launch any of those premium services.  I get looked down for not having a business plan in front.  I think that mentality of building ground up comes from being a senior engineer out in the field for a number of years and having done many projects from scratch. The truth is there are many business plans that fail, so usually people iterate on the ideas anyway.  I am fully researching the market, as I am developing the back end components of software.  I am analyzing every technology or component that is new in the market, thinking about how that could benefit mytweetmark.  This is truly perhaps the best time of my life in working with technology where I have a website to play with, integrated with the latest technologies and awesome users in the feedback loop.  It's an entrepreneur's dream come true.  I just need to remember that patience is key when iterating on new ideas and being creative.

I am still in stealth mode since none of my friends know about mytweetmark.  I only want to expose myself to twitter users for now, so I can get only the user feedback I need.  Developing software while listening to people on twitter gives you a huge advantage.  I am on some very powerful lists so those users are listening as well.  I am really excited about South by South West conference in March 2010 where I am hoping to meet a lot of my twitter friends and share with them what mytweetmark has to offer.  There are many people whose advice has contributed to mytweetmark's success.  I am really looking forward to continue working with you.  Thank you and happy holidays. 
       
    

        

People know I have spent a lot of time with metrics and dashboards.  If I see any piece of important data, I build a dashboard around it so with charts and graphs, I can identify patterns.  These patterns are usually the secret sauce for understanding your business.  Yes, I have gotten people fired before for exposing too much data.  But that's all because it's in the best interest of the company.  Nothing personal, just business. 

on myTweetmark, we are exploring the Twitter ecosystem on hashtags and reach.  I could create simple categories for my content, and get instant page views because of using proper hash tags.  But the fun doesn't stop there.  Once the users on twitter clicks on mytweetmark link and come back to the site, we have all sorts of interesting referral data to play with.  Currently, I am displaying the hosts % break down by google visualization api charts.  I could however get information about country, page views, uniques, time spent, etc. from this powerful referral data.  There is lots to be explored in this area.  Think about it.  You are driving a marketing campaign, and you want to know everything about your traffic.  This allows you to fine tune your campaigns and get the most for your buck.  Trust me,  I spent a lot of time with marketing initiatives from engineering angle for a couple of extra large social networks   The more the data, the better the metrics.

        

Hello!

mytweetmark is here to help business brands reach larger audience for FREE through internet viral marketing   We are an extension of twitter, which means all your tweet data belongs to twitter, which is a great benefit of using our service.  Twitter is here to scale and will continue to evolve into the giant ecosystem where many online businesses will flourish and get free presence (so far).  We are one of the first ones to really understand this phenomena and are putting all our energy and power into building the tools necessary to accelerate the growth of these businesses.  You will get huge attention, measured by page views and whole set of user analytical features.  There is absolutely NO COST to you.  All you need is a twitter account to log into our system and you are ready to start.

How?

• Login to our system using twitter credentials.  We will pull your profile photo and create a profile account.  Once you register with us, you are responsible for manually keeping user profile information concurrent with twitter.
• By default, any content, i.e. bookmarks, posts and blogs you create for your brand, will be tweeted to your twitter account with a link back to your profile.  So if you would like to work on your profile first and then tweet, turn the tweet option off.  You can work on your profile and when ready, turn tweets on.
• We allow you to specify a myHash tag which is a feature developed specifically for you to reach your users.  For example, if you want everybody that is talking about 'thanksgiving' see your brand profile, simply use 'thanksgiving' as your myHash tag and every time you create any content, the tweet will contain the myHash term you defined.  It's very very powerful.
• We allow you to view popular search terms being used on twitter, so you can decide which search terms are the right ones to use on myHash.  Choose wisely please.  Some search terms are being used so often that your power tweet is only being viewed for a short period of time.  Please mix and match different myHash for your tweets.  You are allowed to change myHash as many times as possible.  Think of your tweet like a free ad. 
• You will see within minutes and seconds your page views going up!  These are free clicks of users coming to view your brand profile.  The users are a mixture of twitter followers, search term viewers and mytweetmark users.  Your content reaches far and distant places where you never had access.  All of this free!  Compare this to cost of displaying ads on google, bing or facebook and you know what we are talking about.  
• There are many other features like retweet, twitter update and widgets, community bookmarks and posts where you can view other mytweetmark user content.  Most importantly, take some time to understand the product and brand yourself.
• We are currently providing information regarding where your link backs to your profile are coming from in the 'Analytics' section.  It's great to know details on your users.  We are going to continue to enhance this section for your benefit.  With powerful metrics, you will be able to measure your internet viral marketing campaigns successfully

Please feel free to email bilal (at) mytweetmark (dot) com for any questions.  Cheers. 

        

Here are the latest enhancements added:

• New UI enhancements.
• User analytics engine
• Referer and visitor tracking on user profiles.
• Retweet via tweetmeme.
• Wefollow hashtag integration.
• Twitter updates and widgets.
• Viral tweet engine.
• myhash feature.
• community posts and bookmarks.
• spam fighting.

My goal is to turn mytweetmark into a twitter portal where you can do everything twitter, plus store bookmarks, posts and blogs.  Not to mention how important it is to have strong user analytics.  We want to target all the small businesses out there that want to brand themselves and make deep viral penetration among twitter users.  There is lots still to be done, however the vision is in place and the execution is going very very well.  There is always a trade off on building a solid team, vs. successful execution.  In my case, successful and fast execution is the most important thing.  We want our users to have tools and power to be successful.  Yes twitter traffic might be settling down, but the opportunities for small businesses in just starting   There are many revenue opportunities, analytics subscription, ad revenue, power tools, etc.  But mostly importantly, a viable product.  2010 will be the year of mytweetmark!  Cheers

Internal referer tracking is important to have real-time information where your traffic is coming from.  We have all learned to love Google analytics, but sometimes it's too slow.  If you need to know right away the impact of your campaign, you need to have real-time information, captured via dashboard.  I am a great believer of metrics.  You can find a lot of interesting patterns, and see things way before they will actually happen.  Complicated metrics presented in simple terms is an art.  Because at the end of the day, it's your investors and founders that have to see them and make important business decisions.  The more the metrics, the more visibility into the business.  However, most startups don't qualify to have metrics because you need to have traction before applying any real metrics rules. 

For mytweetmark, every time the mytweetmark link is clicked, the referer tracking will tell right away whether google, bing, facebook, twitter, mashable, techcrunch, any location's viralness is accessed and the impact of the campaign.  Lots of useful analytics can be built around this fashion.  It would also be very interesting from this traffic, mapping CTR to viral factor since every sign up or registration counts into the viral factor.  This is definitely something to be investigated and built into analytics in the future.

Here is a simple snapshot of mytweetmark internal dashboard screen fo referer tracking which is only accessed if you are an admin user.
