So, I create a Twitter account to link to my blogsite and ugh....here it is.

Day 1: Added 200 some peeps, 6 following - 3 tweets
Day 2: Added 150 some peeps, 25 following - 8 tweets
Day 3: Added 160 some peeps, 75 following - 26 tweets

At this point, I'm suspended...for what?

I randomized my behavior a bit and am using ''organic/by-hand'' tactics. I'm starting a legitimate blog and service and.....they still ban me? WTF.

I haven't read Twitter's TOS but someone claimed that you can add 1k a day (sounds ludicrous). I don't even have 1k over 3 days and I'm banned...

FCKRZ
 


When I did it not so long ago, it didnt have any problems with me adding 400 people, 300 people and about 250-400 people a day there after.
 
What is the safe and best strategy for Building twitter followers. Recently Facebook banned me from adding more friends and showing error. I don't know if its error or something more.
 
Its better to spread out on different accounts rather than on one account .You are doing genuine but it is against their new TOS.You should check it out before doing

Recently? I for some reason don't believe this at all. Am I alone in this unbelief?

Spreading, huh? Interesting idea ;)

Yeah, I generally don't enjoy reading TOS but I will go check it out, thank you!
 
You don't get Twitter traffic from a huge follower count unless you are a somebody and people actually read your tweets. You get traffic from Twitter with retweets.

Going on twitter, and adding a ton of people, who you hope will add you back is an idiotic strategy IMO. You will have all of these people shitting up your stream, so you probably won't read anything they are saying. They don't read their stream, and you don't read your stream, so who exactly are you knuckleheads actually talking to?

If you don't read the people you are following, you can't build relationships.

No relationships, no one is reading you, clicking links, or retweeting.

Twitter takes time and work. You can't treat it like spammy link building if you want to get a real benefit from it. You have to put in the sweat equity.

The exceptions to this, are bigger brands. They can get around putting in the work, although they won't see great returns.

We're little guys. We have to hustle. Remember, your social profile is who you or your business are online. Think about how you want to present yourself.

Sure, but you can get traffic instantly no matter how spammy and shitty your tweeter profile is by using the trending topics, eg check out my diablo3 site #diablo 3. Instant traffic that is somewhat interested in your site.

Spamming isnt what we're talking about though.

you should research social persona networks for your social media accounts.
 
Guerilla makes a great point. What's the point of simply having a lot of followers? If you want that, do a Twitter search for #teamfollowback and you will find a lot of people that are interested in simply having a lot of followers.

You won't make any money off of it, and none of the people that follow you will care what you have to say, but I'm sure you'll feel better about yourself. And that's what WF is all about right? Pretending you're cool and make lots of money?

You put everything you write into such useful words, context and meaning. Thank you for your contribution.

I know it's all about quality, no matter if it's writing content, making your social network presence count/content creation here.

Learning slowly here but I am learning. Appreciate the help; again!:updown:
 
vaynerchuk used to spend over 12 hours per day on tools like search.twitter, giving out real info (not links), having real conversations with people already talking about what he was an expert on & relationship building.
