In my opinion, every food blogger should also be active on Twitter because it can expose you and your work not only to some awesome food lovers and kindred spirits, but to media exposure opportunities as well. Yes, the folks at the media biggies are constantly weeding through Twitter looking for cool stuff.
For example, on Thursday, Noshtopia was mentioned for the first time in the LA Times Daily Dish Food Blog which is so exciting on many levels and yeah, this girl did some cartwheels. Yes, we got this opportunity because I do my best to create helpful and good work here at the blog but mainly I believe that it is because I'm active on Twitter @noshtopia and @skinnyjeans where I've gotten some notice and tweeting time with @LATimesFood, and she's very cool.
Through Twitter, I've also gotten some tweet time with some of the women's, wellness, and food magazines and sites.
The mention in the LA Times blog by the way was a complete surprise, and I didn't even know about it until Saturday morning because I spent Friday off from Twitter. Yes, it is also good to take a day or two to stay away from the tweeting.
So, food bloggers get your tweet on! The food community on Twitter is really pretty cool, and it can open you up to so many possibilities you have no idea!
