How do I get more followers on Twitter?

My friends have so many followers, I recently joined Twitter and it seems I have been left behind please give me tips on how I get more followers... nice and easy ways so I can understand ^_^ as I'm still just about getting the hang of it lol thanks

Tip 1 - Quality and consistency

Published:  | Submitted by 3ak | permalink

With Twitter it is about the quality of your tweets and how consistent you are, when I mean consistent I don't mean you spamming people every 5 minutes with a tweet. Once an hour will do just fine just ensure your tweet isn't as useless as "I just went to take a poo" or "Facebook is getting crap" these are things millions of people have already said.

Give people a reason to follow you, keep your tweets high quality and keep it consistent.

Good luck!

In order to get more followers you need to reply to tweets from real people. Whenever you see a comment or a statement or share, reply to it with something relevant and you are likely to get a follower.

Yes this works on Twitter, find users of your peer and help them when they need it surely 95% among them will follow you.

Mark tweets favourite or retweet if someone within your network has shared something worth reading to show your appreciation. This makes followers stick to you. 

Posting quality tweets and using appropriate hashtags within the description of your profile will help others discover you.

Retweet is a powerful tool. Use it to share interesting stuff and you will start getting followers. Don't become a retweet machine though, stick to sharing quality stuff.

Tip 5 - Tweet using trending hashtags

On the sidebar you can see the trending hashtags. Those are the things most talked about at the time and you should include those hashtags in your tweets to get the maximum exposure. If you have something interesting to say about it, you will definitely get follows.

Tip 6 - Snipe out people that follow back

It's a follow for follow game on Twitter, do NOT worry about your following figure. Go ahead and look at people that have the same follow/following ratio - hit the follow button and you are very likely to receive a follow back from them.
