TWITTER BLAB

Does it seem like to you that every time you get on twitter, people are tweeting a way to get thousands of followers? And if you click on the links given, you find not only the same old schemes, but the same old schemes repackaged? Seems to me that almost daily someone on the internet is opening a new website that purports to get people tons of or thousands of followers on twitter.

Myself, sometime back when I got on twitter, I tried a few of those schemes. Some brought me quite a few followers and some brought me nothing but grief. I think because the owners of some of these schemes have learned that they can build up a huge list of twitters so then they can start spamming the heck out of those twitters. Or from what I have seen, sell advertising, promising advertisers tens of thousands of twitters will get their messages. Now, I leave such schemes alone and leave them to the new people who join twitter, the people who own websites with these schemes or to the marketers who really believe that these schemes will work.

The bottom line to me is this: do I want quality followers or do I want to go for quantity. In other words, people who follow me for who I am and what I tweet out or those who just follow me because they came in on some follower scheme. I want of course the quality of followers as those become my buds, my twitters friends, my true twitter base. Quantity I will leave to those who love to brag how many followers they have and they get every day.

Today I came across another twitter follower scheme. I hate to give free advertising to any such scheme, but I know that there are readers of this blog who enjoy these follower schemes and will be more than happy with me for providing them yet another one to join up. So without much further ado, I give you Get Me Followers. Like every other twitter follower scheme out there, plus the new ones that will pop up like weeds, they promise you tons of followers. Of course, like all these schemes, guess what? You will have to give not only your twitter username, but your twitter password. Though they say they do not store this information, I do have to warn you: do so at your own risk!
