    Promote Your Twitter Account:

    * Fill out your bio. Leaving it blank or non-descriptive doesn’t encourage people to add you.
    * Treat your twitter profile as you would treat any other website. Send as much traffic as possible to your twitter profile.
    * Use a “tweet this” button above/below all your articles which you think can go viral in twitter world.
    * Add your name to twitter directories like: tweeps.pbwiki.com, justtweetit.com etc.
    * Add twitter apps in your Facebook account that can send your tweets automatically to your Facebook profile.
    * Link your twitter profile with your Digg, LinkedIn, Facebook, Blog etc.
    * Use your twitter profile as email signature, forum signature and everywhere else you live online.
    * Add yourself into more & more Twitter Lists.
    * Bring your twitter account into the physical world. Broadcast your twitter account everywhere like in seminar, webinar, business card etc.
    * Customized your twitter background. Use pic which is relevant to your nature/business.
    * Set “auto welcome message” when someone start following you.
    * Use your twitter profile URL while commenting on other blogs.
    * Apply your real photo or your blog logo/banner on your twitter profile.
    * Ask other twitter members to recommend you to their followers and you can recommend them to your followers.
    * If you have good followers say 500+, you can display it on your blog as a widget/badge.
    * Try to be more active on weekdays because on weekends, people enjoy their weekends & don’t care much.
    * Participate in certain groups. Groups can be created using hashtags. And sometimes if the group message is a hot topic, then your tweets will be listed in “hot trending topics” in search or other famous twitter services. Ex:- #followfriday
    * Bring your topic into top 10 Trending Topics.

    Twitter Tools:

    * Friend or Follow – Friend or Follow helping you figure out who your friends, follows, and fans are on Twitter.
    * Qwitter – Once you’ve done your initial cleaning, Qwitter is a nice app that will update you via email whenever someone stops following you. It will even let you know what you tweeted that caused them to stop following you, which could be useful (if you lose five followers every time you tweet about your cat, for example, that might be a hint to stop talking so much about your cat if you want to retain followers).
    * GroupTweet – Create private groups to communicate with your group members alone by sending the tweet as a direct message to the group tweet account. That will convert the DM back to tweet and publishes only for the group users. Private communication is established through this way.
    * Tweetmeme – Displays popular topics on Twitter and those people talking about that topic.
    * TweetBeep – Just like Google Alerts, this service will send you an alert whenever your set keyword is mentioned on Twitter or when somebody link to your site.
    * TwitterCounter – With this plugin, you can display the number of followers you have on Twitter.
    * Socialoomph – You can send auto direct messages, follow those who follow you, unfollow those who stop following you. You can manage multiple accounts and you know everything the biggest thing is it’s free.
    * Mrtweet – Find folks who are highly relevant. Add value to awesome people – recommend them. Be found by people who are naturally relevant to you.
    * Ping.fm – This service will update all of your social networks at once.
    * Twitterless – Get notified when someone stops following you with Twitterless.
    * TwitResponse – TwitResponse makes it easy for you to schedule the delivery of your tweets ahead of time.
    * MyCleenr – Sort your friends by their last tweets, and you can get rid of the inactive and useless accounts you’re following.
    * Tweetwasters – Find out how much time you and other users waste on Twitter.
    * 2tweet – Tweet photos and videos by email
    * FutureTweets – Schedule your Tweets.
    * TwitPic – Share photos on Twitter – Share photos with your friends on twitter with twitpic. No signup required, just login using your twitter account
    * TweetWheel – Find out which of your Twitter friends know each other! – Find out which of your Twitter friends know each other.
    * TwitBacks – Free Twitter Backgrounds – Create your own Twitter background with your branding – Free
    * TwitterFone – Send Messages to Twitter with Voice – Send messages to Twitter using voice!

    I'm currently using socialoomph and Twitter Karma, so far they're doing fine... I also have an account on Twiends and it does help me get a lot of followers, but the problem is that they unfollow me after they get their Twiends credits :(

    I guess that's a good list. But the most important thing is be worthy of following, otherwise nobody is going to care.

    Seems good and I would also go for it for a month. But the most important thing is how much traffic will I get after all this hard work. I have a twitter account since last two years and have around 650 followers, still I have not got atleast 50 visits a month from my twitter account to my site :(

    Nice post - and another tip that I've found to be successful for me - especially with promoting my Twitter account - is by getting involved with certain hashtags, and using my knowledge to the fullest - thus, getting a lot of Retweets, and followers from these chats.

    So, basically, be more involved with Twitter - and it won't be that hard to promote.
