    Can you make money Making twitter accounts building followers then selling the account? I have a nack for gaining alot followers! i have 281 followers and counting in 3 days. it says my account is worth 152 bucks that no bad i mean if i could do 100 accounts a month like that i would make 15000 a month. Not bad. I need to know is this legal and if so where would i sell these account!!

    It is worth money when you have a lot. 280 accounts isnt hard to get and it is surely not woth 152$. In the ends I m sure it could make you some money.

    You could sell to people who want a lot of followers on Twitter but followers do not translate into customers or clients for most businesses. If you actually can sell Twitter accounts, I am behind you 100%, but I personally do not feel you can sell twitter accounts for as much as you like--I do not see the demand as being there.

    Hi There,
    This is not a good Idea to sell Twitter Account,because it will defeat the purpose Twitter. This is basically to stay connected with every one with whom you wish to be connected.
    Then also on legality part you can directly ask Twitter Help Desk about it , also I think it can be a transfer of account on some Royalty. Then also pl. confirm.
    Thanks

    it may make some money but doesn't seem like a sustainable business model.

    im at 420 woot i think i might just have a guy pay me like 5$ over paypal and ill advertise him through a tweet and then people will probably see it and click him. eventualy i hope to get 10k+ followers so i can really make money. Im told until you make it into that 10k+ range that when your respected and people listen to you. thought alot of work goes into this!

    You can try, but I'm pretty sure it's against Twitter's TOS and if they find out they'll ban all your accounts and may even sue for monetary gain.

    Long story short, bad idea.

    The demand isn't there. Selling tweets might be more valuable, if you can get a big enough following (50,000+ maybe).
