    There are a few sites that allow you to buy followers. But these will be un targeted and the followers will more than likely be uninterested in your business.

    Here are good ways to drive traffic for twitter:

    1. Follow the guru in your niche and then select their followers
    2. Make sure that they are active so selecting them won't be a waste
    3. Post good relevant contents
    4. Only tweet 1 link per day to your site

    As Onenia says you must target and follow the most important people in your industry, engage them in conversation and follow people who follow them. However, it's when they start following you that the hard work begins - if you want to get targeted followers who you can engage and interact with, you must make sure that you are offering value and benefits to them. If it seems that you are spamming them with irrelevant content they will soon unfollow. Incentivise them to keep reading what you are tweeting.

    Follow people in your niche, be active, start covos, reply to people, and more people will follow, write articles and submit them back to your twitter account do this with facebook as well...

    Why would you want paid followers? They are probably mostly fake profiles that won't get you anywhere. Is a big follower count that important?

    The best way is to just keep working you can buy them but you want people to actually follow you for what your promoting. Whats the point of getting people into a restaurant if there not hungry :) hahahah You could try advertising on YouTube, Facebook, Myspace and your website. I think that would be the best

    The best way is follow the peoples, they will automatically follow you. Avoid paid that is buying followers. Most of them are fake and they are not beneficial for your business.

    You can include your Twitter profile in your forum signatures as a start, in striving to get more followers, in addition to adding the link in your YouTube video description uploads.

    It is very easy to generate traffic from Twitter to promote your business. Twitter is a very useful social marketing tool which can enhance the brand visibility of the business; if done properly. Sure ways to get positive results through Twitter include: active participation on Twitter, recommending tweets that are attention-grabbing, and ask questions and queries to fellow members. There are six ways to effectively use Twitter on a daily basis to attract more traffic on your website. They are as follows:

    1. Re-Tweeting: Re-Tweeting is life-blood on Twitter. It means sharing of information with the followers. It helps in: sharing relevant information with the followers, showing respect to the follower you are re-tweeting, and depicting the nature of comments posted by the person you are re-tweeting to the followers. It allows you to build connection with other users. It also results in positive brand positioning specifically if you keep track of the followers that have re-tweeted on your comments.

    2. Reply: Positive relationships are key to promoting your business effectively on Twitter. Respond positively to other people’s tweets. Maintain a positive rapport and they will definitely respond positively on your posts in future.

    3. Recommend: People like being recognized for their efforts. If you find something interesting and worth mentioning, recommend it to your followers. This way you can become center of attraction for future recommendations.

    4. Enterprise Tweets: It is imperative for an organization to write probably 3-4 enterprise tweets on a daily basis. Use Twitter to promote your brands and the company using this feature. These tweets can be used to promote your blogs, or links which can result in high recall value of the organization.

    5. Personal Tweets: Personal tweets are like treasure. Always share relevant information with people so that they think that there is a relationship between you and them. This can result in potential growth opportunities and expansion plans for the organization.

    6. Ask Concerns: This feature helps in building rapport with other users for the organization. You can ask concerns which can result in rich interaction. Asking relevant questions is the key to building relationships and getting potential answers.

    I hope this answers your question.
