Today I was doing some maintenance on our REVATS Twitter account and stumbled upon a site called Twibes.
I joined several groups on there and, of course, haven’t seen the value of any of them yet, but I wanted to share the info with everyone!
There are no less than 195 Real Estate groups, although most of them have only a few members and are location-specific. Joining these groups provides yet another opportunity to network via Twitter.
You can create your own group too. So you could potentially create a group for people searching for real estate in your town! Many of the real estate groups are just that.
In addition to the real estate groups, there are many groups for marketing, sales, etc, as well as just about any group your personal interests would fit in.
You join a Twibe by clicking on the group and then clicking the “Tweet to Join” button. Make sure you are already signed in to Twitter itself when you do this. Your Twitter page will open and a tweet will be right there waiting for you to click “update”. The tweet will say something like: “Just joined a twibe. Visit http://twibes.com/RealEstate to join.“
Its kind of annoying if you join several twibes, you will have a long list of tweets like the one above, but they will soon be drowned in your twitter feed.
Simply typing a key word into your tweets will cause them to appear on the twibes page that you joined. So, for example, if I type a tweet that says “We love Real Estate agents!” it would appear on the Real Estate twibe page!
Have you signed up for Twibe already? What do you think about it? Have you gotten any results?
