Info Vilesilencer joins Twitter brigade

After much speculation we’ve decided to bite the bullet and join the masses that form the Twitter brigade. Whilst we’ve had a Twitter account for some time (follow us on Twitter here) we’ve deigned not to utilise it until now, instead concentrating on other communication mediums.

Rather than do this half-baked, we’ve actually taken some rather large development steps using the API to automate tweets from the IVS site whenever a new directory is included in the site.

We plan to use Twitter to communicate the following:

  • Any new directories added to the IVS site via the Newly Added feed.
  • Any directory list/excel updates
  • Submission and advertising discounts and coupons
  • Directory Industry news
  • Updates to important threads on the IVS Directory Forum, such as the Web Directory FAQ

See you on Twitter! :)
