I think make your profile attractive, add about your self and find same interested people. Add daily activity, post interesting thing about you. Add some videos that people interested or informative.
A simple way to add new friends is to search facebook for "groups" about things that you are interested in. Once you do that. You will find a list of tons of people who are in that group that you can just go down the list and tell them that you both were in the same group and you noticed that they shared the same interests and ask them to friend you. I recommend against doing more than 40 per day.
Photos do some great help. I don't have sexy profile pic but as long as you post beautiful pic of a woman, bunch of requests you'll receive...
Tv and movie fan pages can be good just be like "Oh fans of dexter add me!" and maybe quote from the tv show too so they think you're legit.
Well do one thing if you having ability to live for friend then every one want to be your friend every where even on Facebook...
One of the replies was of course best. Change your picture to any girls and hot one. You'll receive tons of requests everyday.
You need just look for people around with similar interests and also add new stories photos and data in your page regularly. It help you increase your fb friends lists.
If you own a company and you are trying to gain friends/followers you could try to provide some sort of incentive, like posting a question that your followers can answer and then the winner get a prize...make it interactive.
For that you need to invite more and more friends and always bear in mind that not to be blocked by admin for friend request. Do some social promotions for making fans and get comments from them.
by posting new pics and adding your friends on to it. Then make it worth their while to opt in on our list or to like your page. Give people coupons or free offers!
