    We see many “Twitter Follower Secrets Revealed” or “Gain 20 Thousand Followers in 14 Days” ads these days over the internet. I can tell webmasters use such titles only to attract as many people as possible to their websites. I think it’s fair to shed lights on a more true, real reasons why Twitter users follow.

    I have been involved with Twitter for about three weeks and I have got almost 300 followers. I did two tests so far to try to get a response from my 'followers' with absolutely NO results. I am not your average guy if you are wondering. I am looking for percentages...you know 3% conversion or whatever. I have had no results so far other than more 'followers'. Twitter is the new "fad".

    To be clear, I have tried very hard to follow people closely associated with my niche while blocking those that do not fit with what I do online.

    I agree that CONTENT itself is the MAIN factor why 1st time readers keep on returning to a website. =)

    I like your point no 3 "You’re popular over the net. Meaning you’re some kind of celebrity outside Twitter.com"
    So I am not celebrity, like Oprah, but have no choice and try out twitter :)

    Reason number 5 : You’re using an application which automatically follows an user after they follow you

    If some of you are using this option there is a disadvantage. You always want to follow people within your niche and hopefully they follow you. Now here comes a spammer or obscene user following you, then with the app you will be following him.
