Buy Twitter followers ? Are the followers real?

    Hello,
    Can someone advice on this? There are lots of sites selling 1000s of Twitter followers and they claim they are real followers. In some cases, they request just your Twitter username. Are these followers real? Do they force people to follow? Does anyone know how it's done and if the followers and real?

    I have had some followers from twiends dot com and credfollow dot com and I think they are real followers

    thanks

    it pretty much defeats the point if you do

    It is a bad idea, don't buy! There are tools that you can get up to 400 twitter followers for free, but it is still useless

    It depends on your sole purpose.
    There are many garbage twitter follower adder websites that scam, while some do real good job but still some offer only bulk followers.

    If you ask me if these followers are real, then I must say that they are real (except scams site).

    But are the followers really worth it?
    Its a matter of debate. Some adder sites allow to follow people randomly in bulk, in return the followed would follow you back and you would get huge followers in short time without massive task. While some adder sites allow you to follow people based on category, if you are a web designer then they will scroll a list containing only web designers and allow you to follow them. This sort of following really makes sense. But garbage following is still a waste of time and money.

    Can I get caught by twitter?
    No, because these adders make a decent interval between each following. So that twitter can't catch you. You also can set your preferred time interval between every follow, like 5s, 10s, 1m, 30m.

    the followers on twitter are real, but few ppl offering service like this use the bots to generate followers while there are ppl who do mannual work for followers and provide real followers, 1 real example is Twitcrunch.com here u can get all real followers but we cant be 100% sure on tht too becuase 10 % are bots who follow us, because its twitter's nature.

    in my honest opinion i think these followers that you can buy isn't gonna do good in your site. first off because its not gathered or taken by interest and these followers simply doesn't have interest from your site. second its not real gonna be real as twitter doesn't allow this kind of activity pretty sure they filter such thing to avoid this scenario

    I never tried on buying Twitter followers. I don't want to spend money more about that and I can have my own followers with my own work. I'll just kept on following them and they follow me in return.

    I will never buy followers if you tweet on daily basis and interact with your follower chances are you would have more followers.

    I agree, don't ever buy followers. With Twitter, consistency is key. Offer good quality content/tweets, follow people that are interested in your niche and they will follow you back as long as you are providing quality content.

    Its really unbelievable. They are not at all humans i think so. Just follow the organic SEO in social networks for promoting your product or services. dont rush for output. Surely it will bring benefits.
