There are many reasons why you may want to increase your number of followers on Twitter.
Perhaps you want to share information about a specific topic with as many like minded people as possible, maybe you have strong political views and are looking for a larger audience or perhaps you are a blogger looking to promote your site.
Whatever your reason there are several tools available which will do the job quickly and easily, but are relatively expensive, and whilst they are easy to use you don’t need them as Twitter itself has all the tools you need freely available.
How to increase your number of followers on Twitter:
1) After you have logged into Twitter you will see a search box on the top of the Window screen, enter your topic of interest (or niche) into the search box and click on the looking glass to start the search.
2) Twitter will now bring back a list of recent Tweets about the subject. Find a tweet which definitely matches your niche and click on the image next to the start of the message. This will display that users home page on the right hand pane of the web browser window.
3) Click on the Follow button on the users home page. You now follow this user.
4) On the right hand side of the screen Twitter displays the number of people that the user follows and the number of people that follow this tweeter. Click on the word followers, this will display all the users that follow the tweeter, 20 users at a time, and some of which will share the same interest.
5) You can now go down the list of followers and click on the Follow button next to each Tweet ( it’s the left hand one from the 2 action buttons – shown below), you will now follow these users.
6) Every Time you follow a user then will get an email sent to them, notifying them that they have a new follower, and are given a link to follow you back. Not every user you follow will follow you back, but some will, especially if your tweets are high quality and of interest to them.
Using this method you can soon build up a number of like minded followers, without having to pay for a utility.
