Tweet For A Living: What You Can Buy By Tweeting

If you’ve used Twitter long enough, you’ve probably heard of sites like Magpie and What’s Your Tweet Worth. With everyone trying to figure out different ways to make money, it was only a matter of time before people would start paying you to ‘tweet’ out to your followers their advertisements. While many argue that you are really getting paid to spam, we thought that it’d be fun to see how much you could make a month and in a year if you were to sign up with these Twitter advertising sites and also what you could buy with it.

We decided to pick Magpie, What’s Your Tweet Worth, and TweetValue to see how much money some of the big names on Twitter would make if they decided to use these services. Anyone can see how much their accounts are worth/how much they’d make in a month just by entering in their Twitter username into the site.

One important thing to remember is that although these numbers may seem mind-blowing and too good to be true, the matter of point is that they probably are. If people were really making these sorts of numbers, why doesn’t everyone drop their day job and just tweet? Still, it’s still fun to dream!
