    One method is to follow to members and if they don't follow, unfollow to them. This way you can increase your followers.

    I use tweet adder to follow and unfollow people. Its useful as you can use keywords to find like minded people.

    The other tip is to tweet interesting things and not just sales links.

    Out of my experience. Its always safe to follow maximum 200 in an hour. More then that u might be flagged as a spam.

    You could set up your tweets to appear on your own website/blog so visitors see them, realise how wise and wonderful you are and follow you..

    Yes I do that on one of my blogs using the Comet theme, you can select to show your tweets in the sidebar.

    A great way to increase the number of followers on Twitter is to create a fan page, invite people to it, then link it to your twitter account. Then put a link on your fan page to your twitter page. Hope that helps.

    If your site relies heavily on geography, you can use a tool called "twellow." (It might be "twollow.") Put in your geographic location and you will find lots of people in your area to follow.

    I would follow people and if they don't follow back, then I'll unfollow them.

    Follow people, tweet relevant messages, cross promote your twitter account on other social networks and you would get popular.

    Update your profile in twitter. Provide it with your information. You can insert keywords in your twitter name. Get socialized and soon you will get more followers.

    Ten Ways To Increase Your Twitter Followers:

    1. Explain to your followers what retweeting is and encourage them to retweet your links. Retweeting pushes your @username into foreign social graphs, resulting in clicks back to your profile. Track your retweets using retweetist.
    2. Fill out your bio. Your latest tweets and @replies don’t mean much to someone that doesn’t know you. Your bio is the only place you have to tell people who you are. Also, your bio is displayed on Twitter’s Suggested Users page. Leaving it blank or non-descriptive doesn’t encourage people to add you.
    3. As @garyvee says, “link it up.” Put links to your Twitter profile everywhere. Link it on your Digg, LinkedIn, Facebook, blog, email signature, and everywhere else you live online. Also, check out the great feedburner-like badges from TwitterCounter for your blog.
    4. Tweet about your passions in life and #hash tag them. Quality content coupled with an easy way to find it never fails. If others enjoy your content, they’ll add you. Learn more about #hash tagging here.
    5. Bring your twitter account into the physical world. Every time I give a talk, speak on a panel, shoot a podcast, present slides, or hand out business cards, I figure out a way to broadcast or display my twitter account.
    6. Take pictures. Pictures are heavily retweeted/spread around. This one from US Airways Flight 1549 has been viewed 350,000+ times. For mobile pics use iPhone apps such as Tweetie or Twitterific, both which support on the go uploading.
    7. Start a contest. @jasoncalacanis offered a free macbook air if he reached the #1 most followed spot. That never happened, but Jason added thousands of followers…brilliant.
    8. Follow the top twitter users and watch what they tweet. Pay attention to the type of content they sent out and how they address their audiences.
    9. Reply to/get involved in #hash tag memes. search.twitter.com lists the hot ‘trending topics. Look for the #hash topics and jump in on the conversation (see #4 for links to #hash instructions).
    10. Track your results. TwitterCounter will show you how many new users you’re adding per day and Qwitter will email you when someone unfollows you after a tweet.
