I need more twitter followers

    I just started a website with a client and we need more twitter followers. We need like 2,000 twitter followers and want to target twitter users in the tech or gadget area who love tech and gadget news. Startups and entrepreneurs will be great too.

    Does anyone know of a way to achieve this legally following all Terms of service?
    Please and please share or PM me if necessary. The two websites that need help are http://bit.ly/a8UCCm and http://bit.ly/bOSn4L

    Thanks.

    you should DM twitter users that have posted about gadgets and ask them to follow you personally DM'ing a user will get some interest in the sites.

    You should look into Twitter software which can auto follow based on keywords and even defollow users which aren't following you back. You can keep running those cycles and you will vastly increase your targeted followers.

    dont use spam auto follow stuff, its rubbish it will get you 2k+ followers but they wont be decent followers, its better to have 20 top quality followers who dig your product or brand than 20k that cudnt care less ;)

    thanks. i figured that won't help too. I mean twitter can even ban my account if they find out which they probably would.

    But how do i get to make these people that matter to me to follow me? in a legitimate way?
    I mean i see people with over 20,000 followers but i need just like 2,000. I don't mind paying
    if necessary as long as i get quality followers for my website.

    Any suggestion? website or ads program, remember legal and legitimate stuff please.

    Thanks a lot guys i really appreciate all the replies.

    You can not DM people that aren't following you. Or do you mean mention?

    I couldn't have said it better. Also better to get followers with the same niche or at least the same "likes"

    Manually follow a few people in your niche, talk to them for a while, #followfriday them if they deserve it. You'll probably find they do the same in return for you - and the increase in followers will come naturally.

    You can use Twitter grader to find influential tweeps in your niche and follow them. That should give you a few followers then, if you interact appropriately, you should gain more with time...

    making or posting updates about interesting stuffs related to your business could gain the trust of twitter users who might be interested to your tweets. Using the trendy topic sign can also help your business easily searched in Twitter updates list.

    The most reliable and fair way to get followers, follow targeted people and they will follow you in response. Of course, it will take time but you will get good result.

    Really good way to get more twitter followers is to install follow button to your website like we have done on our site. That enables people to follow you easily and it can really boost the amount of followers you are getting. It does require that you get some traffic to your website.
