- Promoted tweets show up based on how large a CPM an advertiser pays.<\/li>\n
- Twitter is developing a “resonance” metric (which is apparently not done yet which makes you wonder what have they been doing these last few months!) that would also take into account how well a tweet fosters engagement and click-throughs.<\/li>\n
- Twitter is limiting advertising to only one sponsored tweet per page.<\/li>\n
- After the promoted tweets launch on its site Twitter plans to start syndicating them to Twitter clients.<\/li>\n
- Launch advertisers include previously tweeting companies Best Buy, Virgin America, Starbucks and Bravo.<\/li>\n
- The actual promoted tweets will disclose that they are ads, and will turn yellow when moused over. But they won’t be separated out on the margins from the other tweets.<\/li>\n
- Twitter is considering using targeting factors like subject matter, followers’ interests, and geographic locations to target ads in users’ streams, if they do launch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

Promoted Tweets is quite similar to TweetUp<\/a>, the tweet marketplace launched by Bill Gross on Monday<\/a>. It is going to be hard for TweetUp to spin this development into a good thing. It also follows other recent moves by Twitter to compete with developers using its platform, for instance buying the maker of Tweetie<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n
