There is 5 steps to this process and 1 step to avoid.

Not all steps to be taken – one-at-a-time.

 

1 step to avoid

  • Never never purchase for followers. you need followers who are interested in your posts not forced.

 

The five steps

  • Publish content – 1 every hour (average) during day-time hours.
  • People love quotes
  • Ask people to re-tweet
  • Find an influencer in your area of interest with high number of followers – and follow.
  • Re-tweet any message containing the hashtag #MGWV

1. Publish content – 1 every hour (average) during day-time hours.

From experience you need to psot at least 1 post every hour you are awake on average. The more you post the more you are seen. Include video or pictures where possible.

2. People love quotes

As the title says – people on twitter love quotes – why?? Find a selection of one-line quotes to use. Tweet motivational or positive quotes.

3. Ask people to re-tweet

This is where the magic starts to happen. Get friends, family / co-workers to re-tweet your tweets. If your really stuck I can offer a limited service. When your tweets are re-tweeted, your reach increases as in the number of people reading your post, and secondly if people like what they see they will follow you.

4. Find an influencer in your area of interest with high number of followers – and follow.

This is how I started to grow my followers. Find an account in the field where you wish to tweet to. This account has to have influence and large number of followers. Step-by-step start to follow their followers.

5. rewteet any message containing the hashtag #MGWV

There is many hashtags to follow and twitter accounts will follow back. The magic hashtag which i have found is “#MGWV”. When searching for posting ensure to include the hashtag at the start.

If you have any questions and / or suggestions please feel free to add you comment at the end of this post.
