Very nice article. I just knew that exactly I didn’t need more follower that have no same interest with me, but I need little follower that have the same interest. It’s all about quality not quantity I guess.

Good advise 10x! I also found this web app quite helpful and effective too: http://www.tweetstork.com

It basically helps you follow and therefore get followed back by users who have interest in what you tweet about and lets you easily unfollow people who didn’t follow back.

I found a nice balance between who to follow, when to follow, and, remove those who aren’t following back, i post a sales item every 2-5 hours with specific text to make it look non spammy. so i guess i can say i treat it like a professional/hobby account, and the reward is just a bonus. great tips.

Between the spam on twitter and their crappy web hosting/server speed they have some really pretty serious issues IMO.

I like the article and agree with it. Targeted (quality) is for better than quantity.

In tip number 1 it says, “Find out who are the most influential twitter users among your targeted audience”

Any suggestions or tips for the best way to go about doing this?

yes, this is very good information it doesn’t matter that how much followers you have but it matters that the followers you have related to your business or not. I got very good response from twitter in my business. It helps me a lot in generating traffic:http://www.tolmol.com

It looks to me like you?ve just got a CSS problem, not a javascript problem. Adding:.textwidget{background: #FFFFFF;}to your stylesheet should give you the white background, but if you want it to look exactly like the other widgets, (with rouned corners and same fonts) you?ll need to make sure the textwidget class has the same css as sidebar ul.If you need a better explanation or just want me to fix it for you fill free to email me.

All right – finally. An article that doesn’t talk about getting hundreds or thousands of followers. What do you do with them anyway when you do? Great information on keeping your social media manageable. Thanks for sending me the link on twitter at imu.

Thanks for this advice. I’m immediately skeptical of anyone who has thousands of followers after having been on Twitter just a short time. All these automated schemes (like the one bertus mentions) really turn me off. I think some people have VERY liberal definitions of what a “targeted follower” means.

Everyone,

Don’t fall on these pyramid scheme and similar instant Twitter followers machines like the one mentioned in the comment above. As the matter of fact, never fall on any sort of deal that gets you money while you do nothing.

First of all, these followers are worth nothing. They are also in this same program you are, trying to get follower base while doing nothing. This is not your targeted audience, you can’t ahve any benefit from these twitter followers.

Really cool advice. I tried a lot of these methods to get targeted followers, but it was a bit too much effort. Then I found this one system, Twitter Traffic Machine that basicly finds you targeted followers on autopilot, and it sets you up so that you make money of them as well. This is a lot easier I think, if you are willing to invest in this. Here is some proof I found that it works: http://tinyurl.com/nredlv

You have good advice. I do think it is quality not quantity that makes a good follower. I always click on the people that have chosen to follow me. If their bio is interesting then I click on their website link. If I think that I would benefit from following them I do. If they are just those “Get rich quick by becoming an affiliate of this that and everything else, I will probably choose not to follow.

I like to use the twitter friend generator to follow and unfollow people on twitter. works great and haven’t had any problems as of yet.
