Gaining Twitter Followers-Tips and Tricks

Tips and Tricks for Gaining Twitter Followers

• Being active on Twitter. The more active you are on twitter the more likely others will follow you and find you. Create topics and let others interact with you through that tweet. Leave a decent amount of time between tweets, tweeting too often will usually cause you to lose followers.
• Interacting with other Twitter users. The more actively you engage with other followers on twitter the more likely people will take the time to click on you and see if your worth following. Reply to tweets you can actively participate in on peoples twitters you don't follow or know. The point of twitter is to share your ideas and get ideas.
• What to Tweet. Tweeting your thoughts and what your doing is fun and entertaining but thats not going to gain you followers and keep them active on your tweets for long. I know its fun to tell the world that your eating a taco for dinner, but your not giving any value to your followers in any way. You need to give your followers insight and value. You need to keep your followers coming back to check your twitter and want to know what you have to say. Make your conversations and tweets matter.
• Follow people who are like you. If you love technology, follow other technology twitters and technology lovers. Engage in there tweets and they are most likely going to notice you and if your tweets have value to them, follow you. Put interests and write a little bit about you in your bio, keep it short and simple. So when other users "creep" on you they get an idea of what your Twitter is all about. 
• Asking for Retweets. Having your Tweet retweeted adds to the amount of people who see your twitter on the network. Adding "Retweet Please" or "RT" at the end of a post can give your follower a little reminder to retweet you. But doing this too much can annoy people cause you to lose followers. So do this occasionally. 
• Use Hashtags. Using Hashtags is a way to find Twitter users with similar interesting and to increase the amount of people that will see you tweet. Creating tweets based on the tweets that are popular and trending on Twitter at the time are the best way to get noticed. 
• Un-following People. Once and Awhile it is good to check who hasn't followed you back on Twitter. There are plenty of apps in the App Store that are good for this. The first limit you will notice is when you follow 2000 people and you don't have 2000 followers. Once you get 2000 followers you will be able to follow more until the next limit, but until then you need to unfollow some of the people not following you back to keep following people with the same interests. 
• Tweet at Peak Times. Tweeting at times when your followers are online and active increases your chances drastically to be found on twitter and interacted with. Business times are the best times to tweet, tweeting at 3 in the morning is not going to help you gain followers and be interacted with.
