You want more Twitter followers as this will allow you to build your online presence, network with people from around the world, and if you are in business drive traffic to your website(s).
But how do you increase your Twitter following so you get more Twitter Followers?
Some believe that it requires posting good tweets at a particular intervals or following good tweet etiquette.
Others say that it all boils down to driving traffic to your Twitter page by following people so they in turn follow you.
Let s look at these two ideas.
What do we gather from the most popular Twitter users, well if you go to twitterholic.com, you ll see the users with the highest number of Twitter followers. You ll also notice that most of these users are already famous in real life, they either have a successful business or are a celebrity of some kind. It s not very likely they had to build their Twitter profiles from scratch to get so many Twitter followers or because they write good tweets. They already had their followers. But this doesn t mean that you won t gain a good following because you re not famous.
You want to get more followers or traffic to your Twitter site. If you are worried about the frequency of your tweeting or the quality of your tweets as this should affect the number of followers you get, then don t, just treat your Twitter account just as you would any one of your other websites or email accounts. You want to maximize your visibility just as you would on your own blog. Come up with interesting strategies to get more people to go to your Twitter page and follow you, think of a reason or reasons why those people would want to follow you, and let them know.
Have your Twitter profile follow you wherever you go. To do this add a link to your Twitter page at the end of emails in your signature profile. If you have an online business, consider using Twitter for tech/customer support. Use tweets to link articles of interest to your followers. This helps you build a following.
An effective strategy for increasing your Twitter following is following other Twitter users. The idea is if you follow users, they usually follow you right back. However, you do have to be careful using this method, because if you start following many people in a short period of time on Twitter, you risk being labelled a spammer.
If you want to build a long term, legitimate Twitter profile, then you ll want to start following people gradually. You may want to start following a group of people, not just any people but people with the same interests as you or your business, to get them to follow you. But remember, by following too many people you can get overloaded with tweets and it can becomes very difficult trying to keep up with them. If you stop tweeting, then they will stop tweeting as well.
These are two ways to approach Twitter when building your following. Use Twitter to get immediate traffic to your websites or use it to network and converse with your followers to build rapport. Which method you decide to use to build your Twitter following really depends on your end goal.
By following these simple methods, you re bound to increase your followers, no matter what your motive may be.
