This is not a blog about why to get more Twitter followers or indeed about how to sell your product or links or whatever else to the new followers, but it is purely a simple method for growing your Twitter followers quickly and easily and without getting banned by Twitter. 

Generally speaking on Twitter, if you follow someone then many times they will reciprocate and follow you back, thus adding new people will grow your own audience.

The idea is to add quality followers preferably who are in your category of interest, for instance if you are an Author then it will be good to have thousands of followers interested in a similar subject although it would be restricting to limit this to just other Authors if you are trying to promote your book then you need a wide audience.

I have 2 favourite ways of adding and growing to my twitter followers:

1: Hummingbird:

This incredible application will do everything needed to add followers automatically and can be left unattended to do so.

 

All you need to is add your Twitter account details, search for targeted followers (if you wish to target a particular niche) and then click on follow all.  Once you have done that then the software will follow everyone for you, the neat thing is, it remembers who you have previously followed so will not attempt to follow them again (even if you  have unfollowed them).

 

This is Twitter Automation at its best and will enable you to reach many thousands of followers in weeks and increase your audience easily.

  

 

2:TweetLater

This handy Free tool will allow you to completely automate your replies to all new followers and is a great way to introduce yourself. There is an abundance of features with this tool as well like automating Tweets and Bulk Scheduling as well as terrific Spam control and Automatic following of those that follow you.

Both of these Tools are cheap (or Free) and can save you an incredible amount of time to get your following grow at a great rate and well recommended amongst the Twitter community.

It is important to use these tools carefully and respect the limits as they can grow your account by 1000s a day but if you go too fast too soon then Twitter will suspend your account. This is also the case for excessive spamming so it is well worth following the advice given on the support pages for these sites as they have great info.
