How do I gain more Twitter followers?

[misaltas]

You're going to find the twitter follower "numbers game" to be fairly pointless in the long run. Anyone who follows you who is following more than a couple hundred people isn't really reading what you're saying anyway.

If you want more followers who are really paying attention, first start by following people who are talking about topics you find interesting. Use hashtag searches/columns to find these people. Then start tweeting by having something interesting and helpful to say using the same hashtags.

But, if what you're really interested in is the number and not anything more interesting, then what you can do is follow anyone who follows more than 10,000 people. If you follow them, they'll follow you back. Then you can all follow each other, your number will increase, and none of you will be paying attention for it to matter.
