Building Twitter Follower Count

July 19th, 2009

Currently trying to build my Twitter follower count on several Twitter accounts that I intend to use to drive traffic to websites and affiliate links.  A great tool to use for this is a site called Twitter Karma.  Providing your Twitter userid and password allows Twitter Karma to build a list that matches all the people you are following to those people that are following you and generates a screen that allows you to see, for each person in your following and followers lists, whether you are following them, they are following you, or both.  Every couple of days I log in to Twitter Karma and select all of the people who I am following who are not following me and utilize Twitter Karma’s bulk unfollow capabilities to unfollow all of these people.  Doing this frees up following count so that I can follow additional people who might be more inclined to follow me back.

I’ve always wanted to try WordPress and I have begun to look into the world of internet affiliate marketing. So, I thought I would combine those interests and use this blog to document my foray into the affiliate marketing business.
