“Growing followers day by day” seems to be the major concern of people on Twitter right now: a survey I have just done indicates that 41% of people are looking for ways to increase their followers daily and this interest is even bigger than “How to monetize Twitter” that has drifted to 36% while being the foremost interest up to a couple of weeks ago. Still 39.5% ofm people indicate that they are looking to “Being able to attract more followers”.

…

The best tool I have found so far for managing your followers is Hummingbird by Twitaddict. This is NOT a product for spammers that will create a whole bunch fake accounts and will use them to blast people with commercial messages (tweets). It is NOT even a system that will grow your followers on autopilot or that will make you money overnight. I have been using it for over 3 months now and compared it to other software and systems and I still find it the best.

…

It is simply a way for automatizing those tasks that you would perform on your own, particularly following and unfollowing tweeple (people on Twitter) and finding targeted followers.

…

…

The program is amazingly simple: you create a profiles for each Twitter account you want to manage and then you go to your Twitter home page where you do everything you could do within your browser but with some automatic function.

…

You can first of all define your VIP’s, the people you will keep following no matter what, wether they follow you back or not. Then you can go on the home page fo any other interesting person on Twitter and follow all the people that he is following or that follow him/her. Hummingbird will automatically follow one person at a time until it reaches the last page or uintil you hit your following limit.

…

It will then color code people according to their status in relation to you: green for those that you follow and have followed back, light blue for VIP’s, white for those that you follow but haven’t followed you back, and more.

…

…

You can also do searches for keywords and follow those people that are connected with those keywords.

…

Twitter limits the number of people you can follow in proportion to how many follow you therefore you need to un-follow those that do not reciprocate if you want to grow your follower’s list initially. Hummingbird can unfollow automatically all those that don’t follow you back and it puts them into a database (marking them red) so that you don’t follow them again in the future.

…

A very effective tool that can save you many hours and build you a strong following. You need to pay for it, but it’s worth it.

How can you be actively present on Twitter without losing your life into a constant stream of communication? What is the most efficient way to keep your friends and customers informed without being in front of your computer all the time? How can you welcome and take care of your followers automatically? The answer is www.tweetlater.com, a site which offers a service for organizing and scheduling your tweets, for managing multiple Twitter accounts and for following and unfollowing people automatically.

…

This is the first site you should register into after you have created your Twitter account. In this way you will be ready to tackle your expansion on Twitter from day one and you won’t have to think about it any further.

…

…

Registering is easy: you need to provide a user name, which IS NOT your Twitter username but any other identity of your choice, and a password. The basic service is free and it is all you need to get started.

…

…

Once you have registered you need simply to login in and configure your accounts. Here is where you input your Twitter username and password. You can have multiple accounts configured at the same, if you need to. You manage your accounts by clicking on “Accounts” on the navigation bar to your right.

…

…

Your account will be listed in a page that shows also its key features. You can edit its features by clicking on the “Edit” link.

…

…

You will go to a page that contains and describes all the key automation features. In the first half of this page you have the user name and password for the Twitter account, plus a check box that allows you to send automatically a welcome message to anyone who Follows you. Just below the check box you also have a window for entering the text of your welcome message that has to be 120 characters long, max. It is very advisable to have a welcome message and you can also include an URL pointing to your blog or site.

…

…

Later in the same page you also find a checkbox for enabling your automatic follow of anyone following you and the automatic unfollow of anybody unfollowing you. You can also enable the “Vetting” function for manually approving the automatic follow back.

…

…

Now you are done with configuring the automated tasks for your account. You can now schedule tweets in advance. You do this by going to “New Tweet” and then entering the text of the message you want to publish inclusive of any link (URL). Tweet Later will shorten your long links so that they don’t take away space from you message. You can then decide at which time and date to publish your scheduled tweet and hit the “Save” button.

…

…

You can review the list of your scheduled messages and you can also edit, copy and cancel them or add a new scheduled tweet.

…

…

<!– @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } –>

You can also search for messages containing specific keywords, including your user name. You get the results on your e-mail box.

…

…

Used well, this tool can save you a lot of time in your Twitter experience while leaving you free to jump in at any time and join the ongoing conversations at your will.
