Take 20 minutes to follow 1000.
Here is the fun and easy part, click “Follow” beside everyone’s name, scroll down
and do this for the entire list. It is fast and easy!
E.g. BC Business Magazine has 11,482 followers; people who follow BC Business
Magazine for the most part are BC Businesses, if this is your target then follow
everyone who follows BC Business Magazine.
On the flip side you can follow the people that they follow, in fact that can be an even
better group of followers because in most cases they have hand picked whom they
are following.
E.g. Pick someone locally that you really respect look at who they follow and start
following.
You can search key words here http://search.twitter.com/ to help find good profiles.
2. Another way to get followers on twitter is to follow lists.
