In my pursuit for Twitter excellence, one of the things I have found to be most beneficial is to pay close attention to the terms of service on Twitter, as well as their blog.
Studying their terms closely revealed that Twitter will only allow you to follow 1000 people per day to your Twitter account as a standard user.
Something else I learned is that once you have followed 2000 people, you won’t be allowed to follow anymore until you have at least 2000 following you.
While I suppose you could look at these rules in a couple of different ways, I chose to rise to the challenge. “So,” I thought, “you are permitted to follow 1000 per day, eh?” Let’s see what I can do to make that happen everyday.
As my quest continued, I found a couple of key resources that helped me increase the numbers on a daily basis. It wasn’t long before I realized that I could use the same strategy I was already using( to add hundreds per day) and combine it with these newly found resources and easily reach 1K A Day!
And then it happened… 200 per day, 300 per day, 500 per day and then bam… 1000 niche targeted followers to my Twitter account in a 24 hour period.
I am finding that the more finite and targeted that I build my base, the faster it grows. Quality attracts quality and the quality accounts get a lot of traffic. People are searching for quality lists and databases through Twitter. If your list and database fits the bill, not only do you get more quality traffic, you get more word of mouth endoresement through RT’s… and we all know that the best form of promotion and advertising, in existence, is word of mouth.
Here are a few tips that you can use to greatly increase your niche follower base on Twitter…
1.) Use Twollow.com for keyword search/automated following. This is a free service that allows you to enter five primary keywords that best describe your niche. The system will then automatically follow anyone who is profiled or Tweeting within your target audience.
2.) Unfollow those who don’t follow you back. If you don’t make this a habit, your Twitter account will become ineffective. After I follow someone, I generally give them 48 to 72 hours to follow me back, otherwise I unfollow. Chances are that most of the people that don’t follow back are not very active and that’s not who you want in your system.
3.) Remove ANY bots that don’t match your niche and have a unique follower base. Also be sure to remove adult related content. People look to see who you are following. If you don’t remove the garbage, it can bleed into the accounts of others. Most educated Tweeters know this and won’t follow you. A big follower base means nothing if it’s not clean, active and targeted. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Numbers are great when they are the RIGHT numbers.
I have also created a new video called “1K A Day!” that shows you everything in step by step detail.
