While we’ve been talking social networking so far, you may have wondered how you attract more of the kind of followers you want effectively in terms of time and money.

A friend of mine literally stumbled across a way to do so. After it worked for him, he created The Twitter Technique that uses just three totally free Twitter applications you can apply in under half an hour to increase your follower base AND maintain its quality.

Easy is good, quick is good, but effective is even better.

Talking Social Networking: Followers And Following

In the wonderful world of social networking, there’s your followers and those you’re following. That’s what they’re called on Twitter, but they’re known as friends on Facebook (or fans if you set up separate pages outside your main profile). There’s more names than that, but it all comes down to those you’re watching and those who are watching you.

Having lots of followers and following lots yourself must be the way to go, right? After all, it’s SOCIAL networking, so you should connect with as many people as possible…shouldn’t you??

Only if the thought of completely losing your mind appeals to you.

Those you follow are preferably those from whom you most want to receive a particular benefit: education on a topic of their expertise or entertainment most often. You may want to follow people with similar likes and interests as your own. You DON’T want to follow any others with either no benefit or nothing much in common: they’ll just became very uninteresting or annoying in short order and you’ll have to take the time to unfollow them. Usually that’s easy, but why spend time doing somthing like that if you choose wisely at the outset?

Size, literally, doesn’t matter in terms of how many people follow you. The more important issue is that they are engaged and interested in you and what you offer to them. People who care are more apt to pay some attention to you and your messages and interact meaningfully.

Don’t worry about building a huge following on social networking sites. Concern yourself more with developing a binding relationship with those who chose to follow you as well as those you choose to follow.

Make your motto “Quality before quantity” and your social networking efforts will be much more rewarding for everyone involved!

Everywhere, it seems, you hear or read about social networking sites that are all the rage online: places like Facebook and Twitter.

We’ll be discussing social networking sites like these and what they mean for you and your business over the next week.

Speaking of Twitter, I’ll be speaking with my buddy Alan Petersen about how I used Twitter myself for my most recent fundraiser for autism research, which resulted in a threefold increase in regular donations and one very welcome surprise.

It’ll be part of a product he has in the works about using Twitter effectively. If I can charm a copy of my interview from him, you’ll see it here soon!

Here’s a video with a lighter look at Twitter in particular:
