We have recently seen some demonstrations by traditional media monitoring groups that now have tools that will help you track tweets, identify your influencers, and track who's talking back to your constituents. It's pretty costly but very interesting and useful. Look at Cision or Vocus.

I don't think it would even make sense anyway, since tweets are basically only seen by your followers, who will generally see all your tweets. The only possibly meaningful metrics would be rewets, replies, and click-thru from links you post to your site. Again I don't think there's a way to measures this yet as people just don't consider Twitter metrics as that important. We have an account with Tweetbeep.com to send us email alerts for certain actions. For instance, we have it set up to email us whenever our name or the names of staff members are used in a post. Although we did this more to track what was being said about us instead of trying to get actual stats.

It tells us which specific posts are the most successful and what time of day people pay the most attention to us etc. Any Suggestions? Thanks John John R.
