What your goal on twitter? Gain more traffic to your site or build your brand’s name?
The question is so critical, so I highly concern you to find your goal first, then find people who have the same interest.
People tends to follow people who has same interest, if you are new on twittersphere, here some tips for you:
- Find the famous people who have the same interest with you, just one people. (eg. blogging = Darren Rowse)
- Look how many followers do they have? Twitter is very much a meritocracy, and it tends to be the case that people with lots of followers are adding lots of value.
- Just follow peoples who follow they are, because they don’t follow if they don’t interest (eg. 70% Darren’s followers will interest with blogging too)
- For beginning just find bunch of followers, the more the better (Twitter will give the errors popup when you follow to much, so be patient don’t get suspended)
- After you have bunch of follower, ask them with your interest question, if your follower answer, finally you find the people who really the same interest and want to make relationship with you
- Maintenance is the hard thing, so build quality social networking instead quality.
