Sponsored tweets in Twitter - Is this for real?

Who among you have the sponsored tweets in Twitter? I'm planning to apply for this but I'm not sure if there is a minimum number of followers required or tweets per day to be approved. I've read somewhere that there are some who have 300+ followers yet they don't get any sponsors yet.

Yes, it's for real. It's also an extremely horrible idea unless your entire following is people out to make money - then they're so used to being spammed with rubbish all day that they won't notice. If you use Twitter to actually engage and communicate with people you're interested in (i.e. not as some kind of marketing/networking tool), don't do it. They'll all unfollow you.

Hi LilacFaye Just something to think about,these kind of programs want you to spam your followers for a few cents. Is it really worth it? You will lose your following very quickly.

It's easy just wait 2 - 3 month and and you must at least 100 follower thats all. There is new service there called pro member but you have to pay for that. Easy to get there just wait and make 100 post

Hi lilacfaye, for sponsored tweet program. The minimum requirements are: 6 months old twitter account, minimum 100 posts history and minimum 50 followers. Again, no guarantee that you will get the sponsor tweet even you met the minimum requirements. Hope this helps. Cheers!
