How Many Twitter Followers Do You Have?


Are you on Twitter? Do you want more Twitter Followers? Of course you do. Everyone has different reasons for wanting more followers on Twitter. Some Tweeters want bragging rights. Some Tweeters want a larger audience for their business. Others are simply interested in Tweeters that share the same hobbies or passions as they do. There are various methods to increasing your followers list.

The quickest way to get thousands and thousands of followers is to pay for it. If not promoted or advertised properly however, it is very likely that you get accounts to follow you which are not legitimate. Some examples of faulty followers are fake accounts and spammers. I am not against paid advertisement on Twitter but it is very important that you educate yourself and research before jumping into a costly marketing option.

The best method to grow your Twitter followers is to be sociable and engaging. After all, Twitter is a social networking site. You cannot just post your business on every Tweet. You have to take time to interact. Respond and re-tweet other postings (only if it is interesting to you). Evaluate your Twitter account and make adjustments so that your brand is more appealing.

A good ratio for self-promotion is 1:10. This means that after every nine tweets that are valuable, engaging, entertaining, or educational then you may allow yourself to tactfully Tweet your product or service. Engage in conversation and be helpful every chance you get. Continue to follow like-minded Tweeters. There is a good chance they will follow you back. Participate in Tweet chats. Just make sure those you are chatting with are in your target audience. The topics can be very specific so have your good talking points ready. The search option is also available to look up Tweeters in your niche.

The slowly but surely way to increase your following is highly effective. The connections you make are more meaningful than when you pay for your followers. Promoted Tweets can be effective as well but it should be secondary to your networking strategy. Another free way to gain more followers is to build your credibility in other social networking sites such as Facebook, YouTube, or BetterNetworker. Once you have created a solid reputation and following there, then you can start to promote your Twitter account. Just remember to stick to the value first mindset before promoting. This concept is marketing at its best.
