Getting Thousands of Twitter Followers

Getting thousands of twitter followers is actually really easy.  It’s not as easy as it was in the past though, since twitter doesn’t allow you to mass follow thousands of people per day anymore, and there is also a maximum of 2,000 people you can follow until you have a certain number of followers to balance things out.  The point is you don’t have to do much work to get a lot of followers, you just have to spend a little bit more time.

Why would you want thousands of Twitter Followers?  In my opinion twitter is a great tool for making internet-buddies, you can either develop a relationship with your Twitter friends and reciprocate blog/site visits.  Or you can use your followers sort of inhumanely, forcing your advertisements and websites on them for traffic and profits.  Either way works, it just depends on your code of ethics and what kind of online presence you want to build for yourself.  Of course I would suggest being friendly

The methods I will explain for following and un-following in this guide could get your account banned for unusual activity.  So be careful, but as long as you use your brain and don’t overdue the number of people you follow, or how often you un-follow people, your Twitter Account(s) should be fine.

1. Create a Twitter Account.  In all honesty, you probably should use your main account when using these tactics.  Although you could make a new account, and eventually it could become your main account.  Just make sure you’re using a Twitter you won’t cry over if it were to get banned.
2. Do the natural Twitter stuff, start posting some messages.  Follow some people you know, maybe follow some people you don’t know.  It doesn’t matter, just make your Twitter account look legit.  Add a picture, a bio, a link to your website .  Then ping your profile so other websites know Twitter is linking to your site.  (Idk if that really helps, but it’s worth a try)
3. Now your going to want to download one of the most important Twitter tools I could think of.  In fact I think it is the single most important tool when it comes to building a large following at this point.  It’s free, and it’s easy to use.  So go to Pyrogenic Media and download Phoenix Twitter Desktop.  You need the microsoft.net framework in order to run the program, but I think that automatically installs on your computer if you don’t already have it.
4. Install the program, run it.  Create a new user and then save your account file.  Click on new friend adder window.  Choose which account you want to add friends on.  Then go to twitter, look at the trending topics, and tweet something related to a trending topic.  That’s what I do anyways.  Then in your ‘new friend adder’ window, type in that trending topic as the keyword and choose to add around 200 friends.  You could also choose a power user in the same niche as you, and follow people that are following him/her.  It all depends on whether you want a certain target audience, or if you don’t mind who your following.
   (adding only 200 per day is really playing it safe, I think the max you should add would be around 400)
5. Now I would say to keep doing this daily, and every once in a while.  Before you follow people, you should prune out the people you’ve followed who haven’t followed you back.  To do this I use a tool called Twitter Friend Killer.  It simply removes everyone who isn’t following you back.  I did write a post on it if you want to learn a little more about the program.

That’s how you get thousands of followers.  It will take some time as not everyone you follow will immediately follow you back, and it will take even more time if you’re careful with your account and you don’t go following hundreds and hundreds of people every day.  The best idea is to stay under the radar and build your following sort of slow, but sometimes taking risks is fun too.

Do what you want, anyways that’s my guide.  Hope it helps all you aspiring Twitter Authorities out.
