Even though I know people advise against buying followers, I have tried it several times over the years through Fiverr.com. You do not get quality followers doing that but it is a way to instantly boost your numbers--so for some people I think it is worth trying and not always a no no. I continue to grow my followers and recently went over 150,000. I continue to have great things happen from twitter. <br /><br />Terry<br /><a href="http://www.twitter.com/terrywhalin" rel="nofollow">Check out Terry Whalin on twitter</a>Terry Whalinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422274807883053266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-11931424603562761972015-08-17T13:51:55.562-04:002015-08-17T13:51:55.562-04:00Thank you again, Edie.

When I got serious about it a little over a year ago, I had about thirty followers and couldn't imagine how I would grow those numbers. By using it every day and adhering to your advice, I now have almost 1200 followers. Thanks for always giving us such great tips. :)Andrea Merrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886398056031430593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-47589010595358386472015-08-17T10:26:28.298-04:002015-08-17T10:26:28.298-04:00Ane, I look at their profile pic and description. ...Ane, I look at their profile pic and description.

When that happens, you can cut back on the "Thank You's" otherwise your feed will become uninteresting. It's a tightrope, but definitely manageable!

If I see offensive content or language, I don't follow them.
