    I did an online twitter course once and it said the best way to get more followers is to follow others. this is because studies show that when you follow people, around 25% follow you back (either automatically or manually). then over time you unfollow those who don't follow you back.

    this worked for me, and i quickly built my followers to 2000, but i doubt about how valuable they are. basically most of them are only following me because i followed them.

    i think the better way to build good followers is just to post good interesting content, and over time people will begin to retweet you and follow you based on that. and they would be the best followers.

    but i would be interested in any other tips people may have to build genuine followers.

    Also using hashtags which are the trending words (leftside of your twitter) this will help you get recognized as well.

    followers are not very good idea. i can arrange 500 followers daily in one account but it will will not help . 80% of twitter accounts are now crreated by websites owners. 20% are real users. and half of them already pissed by scams and half will be piss in 2010.

    I’ve been witnessing more and more competitions and prizes being offered by Twitter users as a way of increasing subscriber numbers. They usually go something like this:
    Follow me on Twitter and you’ll go in the running to win “XXX INSERT PRIZE HERE XXX”.

    The power of Twitter is not just about having a high number of followers. When you post content on Twitter with a link back to the full content, it is immediately available on http://search.twitter.com That means that you are contributing to real time search. If anyone on the Twitterverse is searching for keywords that matches your Twitter content, you can increase the visitor rate to the original content. Simple as that. There's lots of Twitter tips available on the net - the power of search

    There are ways through which you can increase followers. Like if you follow some members they will surely follow you becasue people have recognized that people only follows you as they need you to follow them.

    You can use hummingbird for following too many people in one click..

    Well, for me it's alright if I'm following a lot of people. But I think it is better if I have more follower than following, so I guess I will be making use of Twitterkarma soon.

    The best way to increase your followers is to post quality content on a regular basis. I had about 17k followers on one Twitter account a few months back and had Twitterfeed set up to update my status with related news stories about 4x per day. At that rate I would gain about 10-15 followers a day...

    Recently, I added more RSS feeds via Twitterfeed and it now updates at least 1x per hour from various sources. Currently I'm receiving about 25-40 new followers daily on that account...

    It's always good to follow popular people in your niche as you are displayed on their "followers" list and as a result end up getting more followers.

    This is the best advice to follow for success on twitter. You can use tools to autopost, and tools to get followers (I sell one, and there are many others) but in the end people won't follow you unless you post good content. Use the automated tools to extend your reach and get people's attention then use good quality to lure them in and keep them as followers.

    Also, followers tend to build on each other exponentially. When you have 100 followers, you'll get 4-5 new ones a day. When you have 10,000 followers, you'll see more like 200 a day, and so forth.
