Account Executive, clickTRUE. Embrace technology, with a penchant for nifty (Apple) gadgets, social media, food and ... oh! shopping too! In between all that, I'd love to share my perspective as a newbie to this industry!

Hello! Im back! Its beeeeen awhile and it sure does feel good to be back!

So yes, how exactly do we increase our followers on popular social media network; Twitter? Apart from spamming comment boxes and webpages with your uniquely-crafted usernames, how else should we approach this subject with a… well.. how do I say it.. more legitimate and true method?

Just keying in “how to increase twitter followers” on your Google field will produce countless pages of results that would just show us how! So instead of repeating just that.. I, on the other hand, will just tell you WHAT I did to get my twitter account up and running.. with yes.. pleased to say, a steady constant grow of followers in less than 24 hours!

Okay, nothing to brag about really.. cause I currently only have 33 followers within 20 hours, out of which, I spend more than 1/2 that time catching my 40 winks (meaning there weren’t any activity from my account)!

And according to TwitterCounter, they predicted my followers to grow to a figure of 528 in the next 30 days! So Im just assuming if I DO CONSTANTLY tweet relevant interesting information, my followers would definitely far surpass that 528 figure! hmm.. Im keeping my fingers crossed!

So what did I do?

Fill up my bio; in less than 160 characters! I figured if a search was done (like how I usually would), someone with the bio field filled would definitely attract more people as compared to those that don’t!
Uploading an avatar! (well, you gotta admit, we like to put a face to someone whom we religiously read) :p
I did a search at my homepage on keywords like Social Media Marketing, Search Engine Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, Singapore and I opted to follow those like-minded and seemingly interesting people from all over the world!
I only retweeted tweets that I actually did bother reading through; on things that interest me!
Tweet; I did! (on a personalised level.. just goes to show Im only human and 100% real!)

Well, I guess that’s about it! My most genuine and least-wordy rendition as to how you can grow your Twitter presence! I will keep you guys updated on my little mission of achieving 1k of followers given a span of a month!
