I've been using twitter for several months and a few weeks ago, I decided to be active on the site and I also gained some followers. One time, I clicked the linked posted by the one I am being followed and I am quite surprised by the thing I discovered.
It's a site selling followers! Can you imagine that? Even followers in twitters are being sold nowadays? And the price: 25,000 followers for $69.
Well, if you're online job needs it, then you can buy some.
Have you heard about it my friends? Have you tried buying followers?

I am a member last month of that site, I didn't think that one of the features of the site is to sell a followers to any member who wants to have huge number of followers. I can buy but I never try. As of the moment I joined twitter because of chatting some friends not mainly for any revenue from different site.

Almost all of us online job seekers always want free service like myLot. It's a free service site but we can earn from continue participating to any of myLot features such as search engine, discussions and task.
I am a member of unfollowers.me but not yet use their service to acquire more followers. I will try today right after I post this comment

Yes, I think this is a better site because you can get additional followers without paying anything.
Good luck!

I can still see lots of twitter members who are promoting that site. Why would I buy followers when I can have it for free. I recently joined unfollowers and I am getting more followers each day.
have a nice day!

I've vaguely heard of Twitter followers being bought, but I never really bought into the idea too much. I personally wouldn't go that route. People follow and unfollow people on Twitter so much, and who's to say that after you pay your money for the followers that they won't unfollow you later on. The entire idea just doesn't sound like a good formula to me, but to each's own.

That's a good point too.There are some sites out that takes your money like that too.It's all boiled down getting the right followers to follower you.You want responsible people to follower you.Not bots that a website put together.

I wouldn't do that too. Perhaps I could be able to gain more followers on my own strategy but not to the extent of buying. I also observe that some would follow and unfollow you what I do not know is how to see who among my followers unfollowed me after. Can you please tell me how to do it?
Thank for both of you, prospect boy and surfer, for sharing! Have a nice day!

Well, I frankly speaking, at least for the moment, I'm not at all interested to sign up for Twitter, so for this reason, I do not know very well, as this site (which, however, promises to be a competitor to Facebook) functions.
On facebook, I have friends that I will, acquaintances or not, in short, I absolutely do not buy anything or anyone!
If Twitter also give you the opportunity to buy friendships as followers, well I'm sorry but at the start that site loses the seriousness that it deserves!
At least, I see it this way!

Hi alberello!
I decided to be active on twitter when our friends here shared that sharing our article on this site gets more views than that of facebook. And they are all right. But to buy followers well, I'm sure I will not do that.
Thank you for sharing!

I am writing some article in expertscolumn and the way to earn from the articles is thru sharing the link on social networking site and one of that is twitter. So I started to become active on this site and I got positive result. Although this is not the only way. The best way if when people search for your article that is why I am trying to learn more about SEO.
Thank you for sharing!

Yes that could really be embarrassing on our part.
well, we should just wait until we could get enough followers.
Thank you for sharing!

The bad thing about doing that is you get a lot of fake accounts from people.It's best to build your own following so you know what you have going on.So you don't get a lot of fake accounts.It can really hurt your business if you have fake accounts.You want people that are gonna want to follower you around so your websites get the best traffic out there.

Hi surfer!
It's a good thing that you have share this additional knowledge with us. It is very useful indeed. So even though I have few followers, it would just be fine with me because theses followers followed me on their own choice.
Thank you for sharing!

I have never really got to grips with Twitter, in all honesty, maybe I haven't explored the possibilities available on Twitter, I think I set up an account, played around with it for a few days, then I forgot about it, my account is there still, but I have forgotten the password and my details. Followers are like fans in a way, it amused me to think you can buy followers! I am a private person so this may have put me off, same too with Facebook.

Hi wolfie!
If we are working on some writing sites or we have a website, we can promote them in twitter in order to get more views which will be of great help to earn more. However, I would prefer to gain referrals on my own way.
Thank you for sharing!

There are several sites or people selling Twitter followers but you will find (once you have bought them) that they are mostly fakes.
See this article: http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2012/08/07/twitter-followers-for-sale-17-for-1000/
In short, if the accounts are real, you are actually going to be spamming them (which is illegal) and if the accounts are fake (as it appears most are), then you are being taken for a BIG ride!

Hi owlings!
Thank you for sharing this information. It is a big help to further enhanced my knowledge about this matter. Although I will never go with kind of activity.
Have a nice day!

Like what the other mylotters wrote above, those are fake ones.
The seller is a real person, but the followers are fake ones.
I have seen it and never buy such a crap.
Twitter doesn't even allow us to share a lot of tweets in a span of an hour...(must have intervals)
therefore there is no way that we can use twitter to earn a huge amount for sharing through twitter.

Hi jaiho!
I will never fall into this kind of trap too. Why would I buy something if I could get it for free?
Thank you for sharing!

I never heard about this. But is it real. How can we believe them . A lot of money will be wasted if we don't get any followers and if they are not real as one friend mentioned here.

Whether this thing is real or not, we should not get into this kind of activity online. I would also want to have more followers but I will see to it that I have them through the common way of getting it.
Thank you for sharing!

Hi friend!
There are really many weird things going around. Of course others might opted to go with this kind of offer rather than trying to gain followers one at a time.
Thank you for sharing! Apology for late reply, just finished my meeting and last night I attended a party, he he super busy girl.

Many seem to need followers on twitter and facebook.. I myself still cant understand how they use those sites to earn.

There are sites, like writing sites or site which paid for uploading photos, etc which you would be needing followers in order to get more views in order to earn. Sharing from facebook and tweeter being two of the most popular networking sites, can be of great help. So some might get into this scheme in order to avoid the slow process of inviting and getting followers.
However, as what our other friends had shared, doing this thing will most likely create more problems. Personally, I would not get into this thing because I prefer to gain followers because they want to follow me.
Thank you for sharing!

I think its not just followers can be sell already also likes! Its gettin wierd now a days. can they just be true to themselves of who ever would follow or like them? Natural followers and likes are just hard to find. Its just a waste of money but for them its the value of the reputation.

Hi liezel!
There are really so many weird things going on these days. Well, anyway we should try our best in order to gain followers on our own way and not by buying them.
Thank you for sharing!

Hi Aries1973,
To be honest, I do not tweet but I have done a bit of Facebook. Nevertheless, what you are raising here is not unusual. The world has become highly commercialized to the extent that one can sell anything, including followers of a social media that we are discussing.

Hi wuoakeyo!
There are really many unusual things happening online. And if are going to think about these things everyday, we will lose our mind in no time. To be safe, let us continue to learn new things everyday and keep those who are worthy of keeping and throw away those unnecessary things.
Thank you for sharing!

Hi Carben!
Surfer is right, those who earn from views in their articles or other posts needs many followers so that they can be assured of getting lot of views but we should work hard in order to get referrals also and not to buy them.
Thank you for sharing! and surfer thank you for the additional information.
