Recently I wrote about auto tweeting cheap gas price on my ActiveRain Blog.

Since then I have been auto tweeting many more usefull info like mortgage rates, stock market indices, WalkscoreTM, Weather forecast and Real estate market forecat at the Twitter account elixirinc.

Based on popular demand, I have also started auto tweeting sports scores and news including NBA, NHL, NASCAR, Tennis, FIFA World cup, NCAA March madness etc at elixirbot.

I even ended up creating a dedicated account for MLB fans!.

Also have started tweeting events, bargains, charity activities etc at elixirpost

Content RULES! Use it wisely with Social media and see your fan base growing, online leads soaring eventually adding to your bottom line;)

Be warned! Some times you may realize that you can't handle the additional business yourself and may end up expanding your office, hiring helpers and secretaries which is not bad after all;)

Recently when couple of realtors approached me to add MLS listing URLs to their web pages, I realized that not many realtors are making use of this FREE service from their MLS.

Here are the links I added to the web site of Rod Johnston

1) Map Search

2) Standard Search

3) My Listings

4) Office Listings

Make sure to do the same with your MLS also so that you don">

Zonna Dilag did the same to make her website more attractive.

Needless to say, both are extremely happy with the new leads they are getting;)

If you are like the majority Twitter folks, you try to follow every one on Twitter hoping to make them follow you.

If this works, you will become instant celebrity and you are on your way to Hollywood.

In reality, this is just an imagination as many of you have experienced.

Well, help is on the way. Here is what you need to do.

Go to this site and type your twitter userid. http://www.elixiraddons.com/twitter/mutual.php

This will create three groups of your friends and followers as explained below.

Category1: Followers you are following back (mutual followers) - You may be surprised to see how small this groupo is!

Category2: Followers you are not following back. They are like you, trying to follow the world. You can look at their profile one at a time by clicking on the image and decide whether you want to follow them. You may have to login if you are not already logged in.

Category3: Friends who are not yet following you.You can send them reminder to follow you one at a time.

At any time, you can click on an image to view more details like Twitter name, number of followers and friends. From the detail, you can also access their profile to request them to follow you or you can follow them.

I will be adding more features to this depending on the feedback, like automating following/reminding others without going to Twitter.

Meanwhile, keep using this tool, spread the word and send me your feedback.

Good luck!
