Twitter is one of the top social media around and today, almost every blogger and business owner have a Twitter account.
Before this, I had like 400 over Twitter followers and with my simple trick; I managed to increase to over 1300 followers in just one week.
Before you read on, I would like to clarify that my trick does not involve any cash investment as I did not buy any Twitter followers or pay for any Twitter services to increase my followers.

Do you have a Twitter account? How many followers do you have? Let us know in the comments.
What have I done?
I followed every follower who followed me. Apart from that, I begin following other Twitter users as well and managed to get some of them to follow me back. It is true that not every Twitter user will follow you back, but if 50% of them follow you back, you will get at least 50 followers out of 100 Twitter users which you have followed.
If you keep repeating the process of following other Twitter users until a limit for instance 1000 users, you might already have around 500 Twitter users following you. The problem which you have now is the amount of users that you are following is about twice your followers. You need to unfollow back those users who did not follow you back in order to have a better statistic.
To be really straight, unfollow Twitter users who did not follow you is not a simple task. You need to list all your followers and check each and every follower whether did they follow you or not. It is a lot of work and you will probably give up the next hour.

This is certainly growth hacking way. Do you thing it will be today as well since it’s 2 years later that I am reading this article from the time you wrote it?
Also, I think organic followers list take time to be built. But consistent and high quality content really helps. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks, Anuj
I personally do not think this is a very good way to gain followers with the same interest. However, it was and is still a very good way to gain the amount of followers if you are a new Twitter account users that are looking to make your numbers look “decent”.
I use followerfilter.com for Searching User- Tweet RT and Favorite listing and deletion – Unfollower finding an deletion. Even the site is new, it works well!
Site also allows you to see any twitter user’s (included yours) unfollowers, followers and followings without login.
Of course it’s free and unlimited!
