Twitter, the largest social networking service today, has indeed hit the world by storm. Everyone is in it – students, young professionals, entrepreneurs, moms, businesses, non-profit organizations, celebrities and government officials. Basically everyone and their grandmothers are Twitter users. Everyone is talking about it – major broadsheets, entertainment magazines, business magazines, CNN and Oprah.

Twitter enables you to follow their family and friends’ activities. But it is more than that. Twitter also enables you to connect with like-minded people and businesses. Twitter can help you solve some problems, answer a need or just simply have a good time.
But it’s not simply signing up for the service and off you go. Before you can have the real fun that Twitter brings, you need to have people with whom you can interact. You need to follow people, and you also need people to follow you back.
Today, let me share with you the fast and fun way to increase your Twitter followers.

Follow People
There would be no sense in having a Twitter account if you don’t have anyone with whom you can tweet. Actually, when you create an account, one of the first things that Twitter will suggest is for you to follow current users. You will be shown active Twitter users whom you can follow. You can also invite your friends over. From there you can join in the conversations and get the feel of how the community works. Read more

RT or ReTweet, in Twitter Terms is similar to a forward in email. If you see something you like, pass it along. If you only have a few followers, don’t over do it. In fact, if you have a thousand+ followers, don’t over do it.
