Review of Twitter Application – Twit Robot
I saw a tweet on twitter about the Twit Robot tool and I decided to log into the application and give it a test, as I like writing about all twitter apps, tools and utilities that I find online.
I decided to check the Mass Follow tool and entered one of my twitter friends and selected Follow All, the please wait pop-up came up and I waited a patient 5 minutes before I clicked “Enough”. I don’t know if it worked, and I thought the tool was pretty lacking compared to some other’s that mass follow as a result of the 30 max limitation based on the free usage, and the tool took so long, I didn’t know if it was compiling a list of followers or actually trying to follow people.
The auto update tool was interesting and a feature I hadn’t seen on other sites yet, it basically allows you to post either random messages or custom messages at set intervals. While I think this feature is better suited for companies or people using their twitter profiles to promote their products, it still is an interesting feature. Do note though that TwitRobot will insert one of their ads into your tweets once per day if you use the free Twit Robot plan.
Summary:
Overall Twit Robot has some useful features but can’t compare to some larger free tools like Hootsuite and others, the Mass Follow feature is too limited and you are left wondering if it worked at all. The Auto Posting is unique and will help companies promote products, but as a blogger I don’t recommend you let a service auto tweet random messages for you that you have no control over the content, regardless if you can select its genre or topic. The fact that you can your own list of custom tweets is pretty useful however, if you want to plug specific posts every so often or perhaps promote some CPC product opps you have taken on SocialSpark, but I would rather use TweetLater or HootSuite for setting my queued tweets so I can control how often they are run, and when they will stop.
