The previous article gave an introduction on a critical conceptual shift required to start getting fans on Twitter by changing one’s mindset from one of a follower to that of a leader. This provides a foundation for long-term success but does not negate the need to employ
The strategies of getting more followers on Twitter
How to Get More Twitter Followers
It may be hard to believe, but some people asking how to get more followers on Twitter already have thousands (and sometimes millions) of those. Even accounts with the most followers on Twitter are trying to get more, and their reasons are largely the same as yours.
