Tweeters/Publishers

How can I monetize my Twitter account?

To begin monetizing your Twitter account is simple! Visit our Tweeters page and enter the following information:

1. Account authentication (using Twitter OAuth)
2. Keywords related to the account name

Visibli will use this information to ensure that the content and/or (clearly disclosed) ads we provide are relevant. This is especially valuable if you are targeting a specific vertical and have users that follow for specific information.

I tweet on my own, but would like to monetize my active account with relevant ads. Is this possible?

Yes, Visibli allows you to send out only relevant ads. Just continue to tweet on your own and we'll send out targeted ads based on your selected frequency.

How do you ensure that the content you insert is relevant?

Visibli has developed a database consisting of some of the world's most popular information sources, and a proprietary engine that matches content from these sources to your keywords. When these sources are updated with new news or information, our engine publishes the new content to your Twitter account.

I'd like to keep my account name discreet. Will my account name or identity be exposed?

No. Twitter accounts will not be listed on our site for others to see without your permission.

How many accounts can I monetize?

Currently, there is no limit on the number of accounts that a user can monetize through Visibli.

We do encourage users to setup accounts around narrow topics so that you can reach targeted followers. If you're trying to reach a wider audience, try monetizing multiple accounts with a diversity of topics and feeds.

How and when do I get paid?

When other users click and view ads from your twitter account, we share the revenue with you. All payments are currently made through PayPal. If you haven't already done so, visit your Profile Settings and enter the email address for your PayPal account.

Payments are made monthly, once users have a total balance of more than $10 in their account.

I have over $10 in banked earnings. When will I get paid?

Payments are made at the end of every month for the previous month, with a 30-day delay based on our agreements with partner ad networks. This allows the partners to verify all clicks for validity, and is also in parallel with our payment cycle for them.

So, for example, at the end of February, payments were made for all money earned until the end of January. Since your earnings crossed the $10 threshold in March, they will be made in April.

I have multiple accounts, with large follower numbers, registered with Visibli. How can I grow earnings?

Do you use RSS feeds to source content for your account? The best way to increase earnings is to use Visibli as your RSS->Twitter service. This will show an ad bar above all linked pages so that you can generate revenues from the ads being shown.

To do this, simply go to your My Accounts page and click on Edit for the specific account you'd like to change. On the Edit page, make sure that your Service Type is set to 'Visibli should provide both, content and ads'. Below, you will be able to enter the RSS feeds you would like to use as a source for your accounts.

How can I monetize my Twitter application/website/tools?

Advertisers

How can I promote my brand and reach my targeted audience?

We have created proprietary technology that helps advertisers reach new customers who are likely to be interested in your product or service. We currently support two different types of advertisements:

Instream: In-stream ads are text ads that are sent through targeted twitter accounts as regular tweets. They are clearly disclosed by pre-pending or appending a label such as 'Sponsored by'.

Topbar banner: Topbar banner ads can be a combination of an image and/or text. These ads are shown at the top of every landing page in a form of a topbar.

To start your advertising, visit our Advertisers section.

What are the advertising rates?

Instream Ads: The cost is $0.001 or higher per follower, depending on the account's influence and niche followship. For example, if your ad is sent out through an account with 1000 followers, your cost may be as low as $1.00

Topbar Ads: The cost is $6 CPM (cost-per-thousand impressions) or higher, depending on the account's influence. For example, for every 1000 ad impression on the topbar, you may be charged $6.
