Thoughts on Twitter Followers


Want to get 17,537 followers on Twitter in 90 days?

Umm … sure, if 17,537 people are truly interested in what I have to say.

Otherwise, what’s the point? Ego?

I’m sure some genius out there has been tracking which accounts auto-follow. And, yes, some of those accounts belong to me – namely the ones I don’t check very often.

My personal account, though? No thanks. I’d rather follow Twitter users that interest me and be followed by people who care what I have to say.

I used to think people who professed a love of “quality over quantity” were just lazy and out of touch with the medium.

I have definitely come full circle on this.

So, like what I have to say? Then, please, follow me on Twitter (@tpholmes). Let’s connect.

Don’t like what I have to say? That’s OK, I won’t be offended.

    Hey Paul,

    Excellent piece and I totally agree with you. I am really glad to see you speak about quality over quantity, especially that you have come full circle. Quality demands anything but laziness!

    I will send you a tweet with a link to an article that I think you may enjoy.

    Cheers,
    Gil
