Tweet Meme Analytics Question

Friday, July 16th, 2010 at 1:57 am

tweet-me Today’s question is interesting and shows why you need to read things when signing up for things or maybe the real key is not to assume things. We all do it and I am more guilty than most. Remember you can leave your questions on blogging and WordPress in the comments to have them addressed in future posts.

I see you use the TweetMeme plugin too, have you ever found a solution so that the TweetMe Analytics show up in the dashboard like they should?

When you add the plugin it will work as is but you need to sign up at TweetMeme.com to use their services. Then you need to sign up for the free trial for the analytics for 30 days. If you find it worthwhile you will then need to upgrade there to keep it working. You can get a multi-site upgrade too if you have more than one blog.

Now I ran the trial initially but for me I can see what is happening from my TweetMeme button on my Tweet Deck reply column.

When people use the button it creates a retweet of me that shows in my replies.

This is more valuable than simple stats to me because it allows me to reply and thank those that have taken the time to retweet my content. Twitter like the other social sites works best when you are interacting and following up with those that are spreading your message.

If you really want the stats you can upgrade but I feel it is much more profitable to be interacting with those that are helping you spread your word.
