My partners and I have been using Hootsuite for a couple of months now to feed our twitter feed from our Nascar website. Out of all of the Twitter tools out there, this one ranks in my top 5 just because of what it allows you to do. You can manage multiple accounts from their control panel as well as access your statistics from your related twitterfeed.
Another really cool feature about Hootsuite is that it will allow you to shrink large URL’s, kind of like tinyurl.com does, but the big difference is that Hootsuite uses a service called ow.ly that opens up the linked page w/ a small non-obtrusive frame at the top. Inside this frame you can embed your Google Adsense code into.
Honestly this doesn’t sound like that big of a deal, but that little frame w/ the adsense on it has really helped us pick up some ppc revenue.
A couple of weeks ago Hootsuite stopped serving Adsense ads and our PPC revenue from nascarview.com has taken a pretty good hit as a result. I have personally sent notes to @hootsuite on Twitter and they have reponded a few times about the problem and said that they were aware of the issue and were working to resolve it.
That has been a few weeks now since I heard from them, and I haven’t seen anyone else serving up adsense w/ ow.ly links since then. I know that there are several people who have inquired on twitter about the issue as well, but none of us have really gotten a timeline from Hootsuite as to when we might can expect them to have this fixed. Hopefully soon…
