Could your Twitter account use a few more followers? Do you feel like you are just talking to yourself? Twitter old-timers know that it is more about quality than quantity... but you still need to have SOME quantity.
If you want to add a few folks to your Twitter roll call, here are some ideas. Remember to always try and seek out people who are in your area of interest. If you like computers -look for other computer folks. Common interests will make your Twitter experience much more productive and fun.
1. Follow others. Pick people who look interesting and follow 25 people every day. They won't all follow back, but many will.
2. Do a search for #followback and follow those people.
3. Add your Twitter name to our Email signature.
4. Tweet funny quotes every once in a while. People will often retweet them and give you added exposure - which leads to more followers.
5. Use a program like TweetAdder.
6. Use #Hashtags - but use them sparingly
7. Write an ebook and become an "expert" in your field
8. Put your Twitter name on your business card
9. Make sure you have a link to your Twitter account on your blog/website
10. Participate in #FollowFriday
11. Go on Fiverr and hire someone to build up your follower list.
12. Guest post on social media blogs and be sure to include a link to your Twitter page.
13. Write articles and add your Twitter info to the signature box
14. Add you Twitter info to your Facebook page.
15. Add your name to as many Twitter directories as you can find.
16. Run a contest. This can be a biggie! Ask people to follow you and RT to be entered. You will find a bunch of people with this method.
17. Use a program like Buffer to keep your online presence consistent. This is HUGE!
18. Tweet frequently. Once a week isn't enough to keep people engaged.
19. Don't use the EGG as our profile picture. A cool profile picture will generate followers. I've followed several people based on their profile image alone.
20. Use software to streamline your social media workflow- BIG time saver!
21. Advertise on Twitter. Let them help you find more followers.
22. Retweet others - frequently!
23. Here is a really easy one... leave your Twitter handle in the comments below and ask others to follow you.
There is a good list to get you started.
Remember, a quality list is much more valuable than just a mass of robots following you.
