Cash for Tweets?

So it has been brought to my attention that Snooki is well known for sending out massive amounts of tweets. Snooki now has 210,000 followers on her twitter page. Snooki actually posted an ad for fashion eyewear. This is the first ad tweet we’ve seen from the Jersey Shore star who has evidently just  partnered with Ad.ly. The company claims it “partners top tier twitterers with top tier brands.” While Snooki is listed on the fourth page, ranked by number of Twitter followers, anyone can sign up for an Ad.ly  account.  Little ol’ me signed up for a test account and was told I could make .56 per post to send out ads on a Twitter account with just over 500 followers. However, the bigger the celebrity and the more followers, the higher the price paid per tweet. Kim Kardashian recently denied reports she’s paid upwards of $10,000 to show certain products love on Twitter. It’s ,unclear how much money Snooki is pulling in with her tweets.
