Twitter is a very good tool for marketing. Yes indeed some of its advantages really distinguishes it from other marketing methods.
Twitter is certainly becoming one of the quickest ways to market, as can be seen with how Twestival was spread around so rapidly to be participated in by ~200 cities around the world this coming Thursday.
Twitter is the short message spreading tool for now, and marketing on it can be a large time-saver. Also, as it is the “new” thing for now, it has added momentum. Carl Ocab did an interview of John Chow through Twitter today.
Even President Obama is a fan of Twitter. It’s amazing how the founders of twitter built a business model around a simple conversation starter. He not only uses twitter, but is the top followed person

Some of its Advantages are mentioned below :
1. Instant notification. Fast, fast info transfer. Easy to use interface. Especially if your followers are from the same niche.
2. The method is not just to post promo links for your blogs or products though as this will just stop people from following you.
3. The top benefit is that every person following you gets an almost-instant update when you post to your blog (if you install the Twitter extension, like I do).
That increases the chances that you will get visits dramatically.
