I just did a complete makeover of my website and decided to start the social networking. I already did this for my other site, Blurple, and i have over 1000 followers on twitter, but i am following 2000, and most of my followers are spammers and whatnot. So i am looking for tips on how to get good quality followers, currently im following 14 related twitter users and have 0 followers Twitter: MarksPixel Facebook: Markspixel.com Promotions group Flickr: MarksPixel Thanks!
You should start by removing those who are not following after a week or son. Waiting time is important because not everybody is online on a daily basis, but waiting long weeks or months has no sense and don't help your social network growth.
Just wait and analyse that where you will be able to get the quality people who really need your site. for eg if your site is based on love then try facebook fan pages pages and post about love and give links of your site.
A good Twitter strategy I have tested and used on multiple niches (which actually came from an old MySpace trick I used to use) is to find big names in your niche, and then follow their followeres. For Twitter, you'll wanted to dig into their list a little bit( to get to the meat of normal people interested in that niche) and start following them. After about a week, unfollow. Make sure you send personalized (note: PERSONALIZED) messages to the followers. Make sure you link all the of the platforms to your blog, so your readers can get involved. Especially with Facebook, you want to start by attracting people you already know (or who visit your website) and the viral nature of Facebook will take off from there.
