Did you recently set up a business blog and now are in the process of building up your Twitter profile? If so, have a look below at our ideas on ways to get Twitter followers.

get twitter followers

 

1. Manually – this method involves going to Twitter itself and or using a third party provider such as HootSuite.com and searching out users with whatever profile you seek. If your business blog is about Travel, then obviously you would be interested in followers who display “travel” in their Twitter BIO section, and or those who tweet about this topic on a regular basis. You would manually go in and type in the niche that corresponds with your business, in the Twitter search field. Just about every conceivable niche and or “interest” can be mined from the micro blogging social media network. This method takes time to get going, but can prove to be the most useful if done right.

2. Automated – this is when you sign up with a provider such as TweetAdder.com that searches the Twitter directory of users and tries to match you with related and or certain types of members. When it finds what it’s looking for, it adds the user to your account automatically. Many swear by this method and have grown their accounts two fold in a short amount of time, while others do not like the cold distant nature of the method. Should you try this idea? We say, why not – it’s worth a shot and if it doesn’t produce what you seek, move on to method number one above or idea number three below.

3. Buy – yes you can use a service such as BuyRealTwitterFollowers.com which will seek out followers on your behalf and do the dirty work for you. Submit payment and let them get to work for your site or blog, this is perhaps one of the easiest methods to get Twitter followers and grow your social media presence at the same time.

Whichever idea you decide to try or even if you try them all, the key is to be active and relevant. Be fun, informative, or educational but most importantly – share share and share. That’s what social media is all about, especially Twitter.

Find an article of interest to your customers? Share it.
A funny photo of a staff member? Share it.
Did a follower of yours just tweet something awesome? Share it.

Ok. You get the picture.
