So, lets dive into today's topic!

I got a question that asked: "What is the best way to gain twitter followers?"

Well, I want to go very deep on this. First, why do you want those followers in the first place? You, probably ain't some ego maniac who wants those followers just to feel good, there's probably a better reason than that. Me thinks you want to build an audience on Twitter, but then again why do you want that? Do you want to have people interacting with you and re-tweeting your content? You would want that, because...? Because you want to generate traffic to your offer and make money, right?

Twitter is definitely an important platform for social media marketing. Here are a few ways that could help you use Twitter, as an effective marketing tool.

1) Complete your profile

Provide an interesting bio and create a simple twitter handle that is easy to remember. An attractive image with a witty comprehensive description should do the trick.

2) Create curiosity

No one wants to read regular mundane tweets. Think out of the box!

3) Be trendy

Keep up with the times. Know what’s in and what’s not.

4) Engagement is the key

Engage and Participate! Hold competitions and interact with your followers.

5) Use #hashtags

Tweets with hashtags are more likely to appear in search results and trending topics. When used wisely, it can go viral.

6) Create lists

7) Join hands with influential people

A tweet having the name of a celebrity, the mention of a charity event or noble cause or even a famous company’s name will help it go viral. Show your support and have them support you!

8) Have a clear CTA

Call them to action! A clear Call-to-Action for a charity event or an environmental pledge will attract followers. Provide a link or tell them clearly what to do.

9) Be local

Target people who are within your reach and give them something they can identify with.

10) Retweet

Retweet interesting tweets of your followers and they would surely do the same for you. Show them that they matter to you.

Having a Twitter following can help you, but it doesn't build overnight and just focusing your efforts there is inefficient.
