I think using Twitter to promote your blog is a great idea but you always have to be careful not to ‘over promote’. I follow a few people who just tweet about their blogs all day and all night and constantly update with offers and deals and to be honest, even though I like the person, I had to unfollow them because they were just so annoying! I think the advice I’d give is to tread very carefully.

Yeah that is definitely a thing to watch out. You need to tweet not only your blog posts, but other posts too.
