How to Get 1,000 Twitter Followers in 1 week!

How to Get More Twitter Followers

One common pastime for people who are semi or fully retired is to start a blog or a business and get set up with various social media platforms. When you are just starting out it can be hard to get your message across with very little followers. This post will show you how to get over 1,000 twitter followers in less than one week, which is something I have done several times.

Step 1:
Assuming you're already set up on Twitter, then you need to start posting. The easiest way to get people to follow you is obviously to put out content that that person likes to read, watch or otherwise view.

Where do you get content? Well, you can either produce the content yourself, via your blog or website or whatever it is that you are promoting, or you can simply use other people's content. It's a win for them as their content is being shared and it's a win for you because people will follow you because you post interesting stuff.

You should post content that is relative to the type of followers that you want. For example, if you are trying to gain followers that like success and motivation, then you might look for good links that you enjoy on a website like addictedtosuccess.com . A website like this has almost unlimited content for you to share. Or you could be a legend and post articles from Early Retirement Australia (Ha! Shameless plug, but you should still do it!).

Step 2:
You have the link that you want to share, so copy it into Twitter, don't worry about the length of the url, it will get automatically shortened. So you want to create a catchy headline for the post that will make people want to click on the link or on your profile. Then you want to hit enter (return) a couple of times to create a bit of space and then use all the remaining characters you have to hash tag!

Put in any hash tag that is either relevant to the post, or the types of followers that you want.

Step 3:
You will now start to get people retweeting your posts because even strangers will see your posts because of the hash tags, and then you will also start to get people following you.

It is Twitter etiquette to follow people back who follow you, so go to your friends list and make sure you follow everyone back.

Additional Info:
It can be time consuming to constantly post like this, so after you have several posts, you can go back through them, copy and paste them back into your twitter feed. Remember, it's attention and visibility that will get you followers, of course, you could go for more organic growth, but this is a speedy way to amass lots of followers to get more visibility to your page.
You want to be posting as often as possible, so find heaps of links and try and post at least 5-10 links twice per day, or more if you have time! Other people will retweet your tweets gaining even more views and followers.

Trust me, this works as I have done it several times.

Let me know how you go and if you have any questions!

Cheers,
