What Twitter growth strategy worked for you?

15
•
I have been trying to grow my Twitter account for months now. I have been successful to some extent, but I'm looking for more ideas. My inspiration is drying up. So, if you're active on Twitter & have successfully grown your brand, please help me(and several others who will read this thread) to grow their presence too. P.S - Share your Twitter profile when you comment. I want to follow you.

Tweeting at least twice per day on topics related to your niche so you do appear on timeline at least once a day. Engaging with other accounts related to your niche so you appear in their notifications and so you are noticed. These are good to begin with

@shruti_s Yup, these are some great points, Shruti. I think I have to stay consistent with these to see some impressive numbers

reacting to some popular posts did bring me some followers. Can't call it a fulscale success though.
Tanoy Chowdhury
@daniel_engels Yes, this strategy works. I follow some big accounts, and comment on their posts regularly. I try to be as early as possible to gain more traction.

These are more like tactics not a well defined strategy but hope they help. My account is https://twitter.com/luciantartea - Posting genuine useful content for a niche that's not that small (beginner web developers). It's important to find your niche but don't address advanced members of it. Focus on beginners which are plenty - 1 or 2 tweets per day and a lot of positive constructive comments. Just liking will not get your profile seen - As soon as you tweet go on a comment spree because in most cases your tweet will be pushed towards the people you commented to - Give breathing room between your tweets of a couple of hours - Tried giveaways and failed miserably. The results were far from my expectations - Place a link in your profile that certifies your authenticity like a portfolio, product, something that your are proud of and fits with the niche - Profile cover doesn't matter at all, a short and clear bio does (with the above mentioned link). Also having a real photo helps - Invest in purchasing bigger accounts products and try to build win-win relationships with them by positive interaction

@luciantartea Thanks Lucian. That's a very detailed answer. I think if I follow what you have just said here and stay consistent with it, I will see some good results coming my way. I have started following you

@paul_vanzandt Great! If you know someone who has built their Twitter profile from the ground up, ask them to comment here.

I unfortunately cannot post images here, but I tweeted 219 times and have gotten 372K impressions so far. Plus I have only 170 followers. Reach is crazy on twitter honestly.
Tanoy Chowdhury
@areeb_pasha Those are some impressive numbers, Areeb! I think you're doing great. I have also observed that if you tweet more, you start getting higher impressions. Keep going. My best wishes are with you

Go for threads, reply to people and make a valuable point.

@gurpinder_singh Writing a thread and replying to accounts are the common suggestions I'm getting from people. It's time for me to double down on these.
