How to get more followers on Twitter?

[Ruairi]

I always tweet cool things that going on, but still I only have 3 followers (lame, I know).

Is there away to get more followers?

Follow me (if you want): @ruairiphillips

I'll follow you (I'm @AlienBlade).

Some tips:

> Do Follow Friday to suggest people to follow those users. And hope that the people on that list follow you for being kind enough to recommend them.
> Follow as many people as possible and hope they follow back. If you're searching for people to follow, follow the ones where they have a higher number under following than followers (they will usually follow you back).
> Use hashtags (this ties in with the first tip of using Follow Friday). This should let more people see your tweets. And if they share the same interests/views they may follow you.
> Promote yourself on other sites such as here (which you've already done), Facebook, Youtube, and Tumblr.

EDIT:

Note that these tips won't guarantee more followers, but there's the chance that they could help.

Here's some followers who might follow you back:

@Frannie_Edwards
@sabouras27
@orderthephoenix
@Potterheadsrule
@tokyo_sexwhale
@dotes69
@EllisInATardis
