Should I buy Twitter followers for my newly launched business?

Hi! Social networks connect people and an enhanced business presence helps improve reach and gain new customers. Twitter is one such micro blogging channel which is not only popular, but actively helps in business marketing.

Having more number of twitter followers means, your every post gets good views, retweets, shares and comments. If the thread is interesting and engaging enough, it can go viral too, saving a lot of money you would spend on paid marketing channels. So, of course having more twitter followers will help your newly started business. But, not at all if they are fake.

There are a lot many websites offering to sell any number of fake twitter followers which might look great on your account. Imagine, having 1 million followers, that is impressive, but does it add value to your business? Do these fake twitter followers also read your tweets and actively engage or retweet your posts? No. So, it is nothing that supports your marketing efforts. It may help you get some followers, but ultimately, relevancy matters.

Unless you have real genuine twitter followers, who relate with your business, you are just going to waste your money buying fake twitter followers ( which most likely are just bots, inactive and hacked accounts). Also there are people who literally sell their twitter accounts, so that their followers can be requested to follow other business accounts. That is called – account farming. Well, so much progress and strategies but the bottom line is business returns, where all this totally fails.

Also, consider this: Buying fake twitter followers can get your account deleted or banned. Twitter’s terms of service make it very clear that buying fake followers isn’t allowed, and that any accounts breaking this rule can be suspended or even deleted at Twitter’s discretion.

So, be creative, spend just about 15 to 20 minutes of your time sharing interesting business related posts, engage with your customers on twitter, share your business pics, offers, promotions, motivational posts, holiday greetings and great deals from time to time. Make every interaction count, focus on collecting quality material – pics and videos you can share on your twitter account. Add value to your brand and you will have goof number of real, genuine, human twitter followers in a short time.
