The 7 Ways To Get More Followers Nobody Will Ever Tell You.

cocktail-party-group

"It's Saturday night! Who wants to play our Mashable drinking game!?"

I’ve always wanted to write a douchey article teaching people how to get more Twitter followers.

The only problem was, I had none.

But now that I have a few, I can drive my doucheyness right up your grill.

In 7 simple ways, I’m going to show you how you can get more people interested in your horrible life.

Trust me.

It worked for me.

1. If You Don’t Lie, We’re Stuck With Reading About Your Actual Life.

Everybody hates these tweets:

Ugh.  So tired this morning.  Need my coffee!!!!

Work’s almost done!  Can’t wait to get out of here.

Devastating.

Your life is so pedestrian, reading your own tweets should shame you back to Friendster.

Lie.

Lie to us.

Oh man!  Just woke up next to an unconscious hooker.  Ha!  Is there any other kind?

Isn’t it weird that no matter how many times you commit manslaughter it feels like your first?

Bitchslapping a basset hound!

Much better.

2. Be Helpful, But Only To Hot Chicks.

One of the things I do well is assist super hot chicks using Twitter.

OMG you guys!  im like trying to twitpic my area but its not working. grr

That’s when I come in and show her how to “log in”.

Boom, she follows me.

Boom, all her perverted guy fans follow me.

And that twitpic?

Exceptional.

3. Don’t Converse.

Everyone encourages you to “converse” with your followers.

Engage.  Twitter’s like a cocktail party.   Mingle, listen, learn.

Screw that.

I’ve never been to a cocktail party where 30 dudes suggest I read about new Wordpress themes.

The fact is, Twitter is whatever you want it to be.

I choose to be a big douche who never responds to anyone.

I’m like a nerdy Boo Radley.

For some reason, it works.

boo_radley

To some, you were a social pariah. To me, only a hero.

4. Don’t Let The Link On Your Twitter Profile Link To Your Twitter Profile.

Link to your blog, your Facebook, nude pictures of yourself.

Something.

Just don’t link back to your own page.

I’m not that bright.

I’ll sit there and click.

5. Don’t Follow Too Many People.

If you follow up to your maximum, it’s a little like saying Howdy folks!  I bring absolutely nothing to the table.

You would say ‘howdy folks’, wouldn’t you?

See?

You really do bring nothing to the table.

The point is, people don’t want to follow people who just follow anyone.

Be selective.

Don’t let the people on Twitter pass you around like currency.

6. You’ve Got One Shot To Impress Someone.

Remember, people decide if they’re going to follow you in 3.2 seconds.

In that 3.2 seconds, they’ll look at your picture, read your bio and survey your following count.

Pick the best picture, make your bio scintillating and the following count will come.

I just made up “3.2 seconds.”

I wanted you to think I had like, stats and shit.

7. Don’t Worry So Much.

When I was a kid, I wanted friends really badly.

Mostly because I had none.

So I’d offer everyone my toys.  My books.

Not my food, though.

Fat kids know where to draw the line.

The other kids sensed my desperation.  And they didn’t have respect for me.

The same thing happens on Twitter.  People can sense that you’re hungry for followers.

So the guys who auto-follow, the girls who unfollow thousands of people so they can appear to be celebrities.

To you, you’re cool.  But to the rest of us, you’re the try-hard lonely fat kid, clinging to his Jello Pudding pop.

Don’t worry so much, friends.

You get the most followers when you stop caring.

tnrecess

Me as a child at recess. Yes. I had two lunchboxes.

There you have it.

I have to run.

There’s a basset hound that needs to be bitch slapped.

Send me twitpics of your area on Twitter here!

    I think...yep, I just fell in love with your words.
    So true, despite the fact I'm utterly and shamefully new at this online gig.
    I'm a published author, but I was bored and sick of bitchy friends bitching about dates with little man bitches, so I've started writing relationship advice all Sex and  the City style. Except, I'm getting no sex and I live in the country. Win for me.

  • Twitter promoters use another means for fan improved. I will be giving this technique. Adhere to individuals who discuss the same passions as yours. There is great propensity that these individuals follows you in come returning. Do not proceed following those individuals who didn't follow you returning.
