Why is it so important to have Twitter followers? This is the question I have asked myself the same question for quite a time now. What is the purpose of having a long list of Twitter followers, what good will it do? And how in the world can I increase my Twitter followers? All these questions are very common and mostly asked by users or business owners who would like to use Twitter as a marketing platform. Here are some tips on how you can gain Twitter followers quickly.
Tweet It Back
Retweet the tweets of other people that is the best way of gaining more followers, so if you like somebody’s tweet, retweet it on your profile. Twitter is a basically pay-it-forward kind of platform so you once you start re-tweeting people stuff you will see new followers.
Be Social
The best way to gain more Twitter followers is by using the @ symbol, for example @Mr.Bean. The more you use this symbol, the more interaction you will get on your tweets and people will follow you. This includes the big names on Twitter, this means if you @mention-a-celebrity they will respond you, because Twitter is all about being public. Everything is seen and retweeted on Twitter.
Use The Trending Subjects
Twitter makes it very easy to find the trending subjects and topics of the day, week, month or even the year. Take advantage of this and make use of hashtags.
Find The Sweet Spot
By finding the sweet spot I mean, try to find the best time to post your tweets. Test the responses on your tweet, for example, the tweet you posted in the morning has less responses than the tweet you posted after dinner. Depending on the age group of your followers and the nature of your tweets, you can judge when it is best to post a tweet in order to get more responses and followers.
Create A Special Hashtag Of Your Own
Make a special hashtag of your own and tweet it often, you never know when someone might see it and start using it and one day when you see the trending hashtags your hashtag is among the trending ones.
Round Followers For Twitter
If you are a blogger and you own a blog then put a disclaimer on it and suggest your followers to also follow you on Twitter. This will also help you gain new followers.
