Trying to figure out how to get more followers on Twitter?  Me too, check out these tricks I’ve learned:

1. Friend people, they’ll friend you back

2. Be interesting and ENGAGE in conversations, when someone tweets, tweet back! If your comments are interesting people will follow you.

3. Don’t worry about when you Tweet, people aren’t going to follow you from the homepage

4. Promote through your blog, website, email signature, other social networks

5. Search for people you already know on Twitter

6. Friend the most popular Twitter users–at least you’ll be on the same page as other attention craving Twitter users

7. Join Twitter groups

It’s not quite as easy as it sounds unless your already popular…  Keep networking, keep following! Follow ME on Twitter
