Tip-Barrier2001
So you're fairly new to Twitter!
I'd like to welcome you to an adventure that will change your life in a positive manner!
After you read this, you might gain considerable benefit from reading "Twitter Profiles". The data there
might help you gain more followers faster. Click here to read!
Twitter is an elite group (for the most part). The people using Twitter are above average intelligence and
ability. Of course this is just my opinion but it's based on over two years of interaction with so many
AWESOME people.
Twitter is not perfect. In my opinion, there are several areas they could improve.
But first let me deal with the fact you've followed 2001 people and can't follow any more! That is such a
pain!
I will give you some ideas and hopefully help you along.
Before I begin, you need to STUDY Twitter's Rules here: http://help.twitter.
com/forums/26257/entries/18311.
To continue, I do this because I am trying to change things. See my article: New Civilization!
No, I don't smile all the time and read someone else's speech! If you hang around a little while, you will
come to know me by my actions, not by my words.
The way to break the 2001 barrier is to get your followers up to 1800.
Then you can follow more!
Technique, How to Grow
So here is the technique that you need to apply.
You have followed 2001 people. If they are not following you back, unfollow them after a reasonable time.
Personally, I allow 10 days before I unfollow. That is plenty of time.
As a new person, I suggest you only allow 3 days and if they don't follow you, unload them. You can't afford
dead wood. They keep you from expanding.
I suggest that you give priority to following back those that have followed you already! Don't leave them
hanging if you can prevent it. After so many days, you may be the “dead wood” that gets unloaded!
On my page, How2Start/Rapidly grow Twitter w/o spending, I list free
software that can help you follow and unfollow.
I need to again refer you to Twitter's rules: http://help.twitter.com/forums/26257/entries/18311.
In my opinion, make sure you note it's just my opinion, that when you are new, less than 1800 followers,
Twitter seem less strict. But if you spam or get a lot of people blocking you, post the same tweet over and
over, ie break the rules, you will get suspended. So don't do it.
One of the less than perfect points is “Aggressive following and unfollowing is against the rules” Twitter
does not define “aggressive.” When you are new, I believe in this area, they cut you a little slack. But after
you break that 2001 barrier, proceed in a relaxed matter.
Trick of breaking the 2001 barrier is off loading the dead wood.
For some free software to help your job of unfollowing, I have some software listed on this page "Twitter
Advanced" that is no cost to help you unfollow.
Next don't play the “you follow me first” game. If you're on Twit, you should not be a young school child.
The trick of getting follower is: YOU FOLLOW OTHER PEOPLE!
See my article:“Following Back"
If you do not have a GREAT profile, including a picture of YOU, see my article: Twitter Profiles
As I've mentioned, if you're new to Twitter, you should see Twitter Profiles :-)
If you're protecting your Tweets, what the heck are you doing on Twitter?
See my article: Protected Tweets* or Restricting Your Life
Twitter is a “social” network!
Well, hopefully I haven't insulted you too much to read and expand.
I am willing to help, follow and ask! Twitter People are FAR above Average!
Please follow @MaryHWatts as a back up to my account!
Let me know if you need assistance. I have a page “Problem Solving” Check out some of my successes.
#AwesomeTeam Day2U! :-) #PEACE
