Advice On How To Get Followers On Twitter

By Rahul Navlakha


You have always dreamed of owning a business and running everything out of your home. The other day you were discussing this idea with some friends, and everyone agrees that you should get a Twitter account. That makes sense because Twitter is all the rage now. But the thing you are wondering is how to get followers.

One of the first things you will want to do once you join Twitter is to fill out your profile. Make sure what you say in the profile reflects who you are as an author. Put your picture up as an avatar. People love to put a face with a name.

You will want to let all your friends, especially writing friends, know that you are now on Twitter. Put a link to your account in your e-mail signature.

Another thing that helps is making your page stand out. Be sure to put your picture up. Work on your bio, making sure it's complete and reflects your personality. In other words, put your best foot forward. Twitter also has directories you can join. Doing this will increase your followers and may give you new friends as well.

Most people use Twitter for business ventures, however that does not mean asking your friends to follow is wrong. This website is a social network. Who knows who your friends may know who may be able to help you on your writing journey?

Your goal is to get articles, and maybe even books, published. What you may not have considered is that getting articles published will help you gain more followers as well. People use Twitter as their down time as they work, so most people will click on links they find interesting, and some read just to avoid work they don't want to do. Another thing about having followers is that people will read articles out.

Twitter always has suggested people to follow. It is a good idea to follow anyone that you can. A lot of Twitter users follow everyone that follows them. Some even announce the people that they are newly following, which can generate even more followers.

People have fallen in love with Twitter. So much so that there are actually online groups devoted to the site. They discuss things like how to get the most out of Twitter, and the benefits of belonging.

But the number one thing you can do to get more Twitter followers is to be active on the site. Regularly update throughout the day as you work. Make your tweets interesting. Respond to the people following you. This is how to get followers.
