If you are a Twitter user and keeps on tweeting every day, almost every hour and still has a few followers, you might want to know what should you do to create an impact to the social site. There are certain do and don't in Twitter to both attract or distract followers. Here are the top secrets on how to gain more Twitter followers.

1. Quality Content
Your tweets under the 160 character limit should be valuable to get noticed. In this way, viewers can retweet them which will eventually bring more followers.

2. Use Keywords
Search results use "keywording" to provide any related tweets on business, music, topics, and other sectors. Make sure to use keywords to maximise your exposure.

3. Profile Optimisation
Information you put in your account defines the entire profile. Use your Bio to give people reasons to follow you.

4. Use Twitter ID to other social sites
You can use your twitter URL on other social sites such Facebook or Tumblr so that viewers may follow your latest updates on Twitter.

5. Twitter on LinkedIn
Adding a "follow" button on your LinkedIn profile will make it easier for visitors to follow your tweets.

6. Reasons Why You Should Be Followed
Suggestions to follow you with certain headlines such as "great tips", "latest updates", or "special offers" will attract more users and make them stay knowing the benefits they can get from you.

7. Mentioning

Tag some influential users in your tweets to make your profile visible. Mentioning popular accounts can get you popular in some ways.

8. Embed Your Tweets
For users who have a Web site or a blog site, include your tweets by embedding them to your Web page. This will not only increase your followers but also increases the value of your sites.

9. URL on Your Business Cards
Your business card should not be limited only with your home, office, and mobile number but you can also include your LinkedIn account and your Twitter ID.

10. Twitter ID on Your Timeline

Add your Twitter ID hyperlink to your personal profile on Facebook. Go to "About" on your timeline and then "Edit". Use the power of Facebook to increase awareness of your friends and tell them you have a Twitter account.

11. Twitter ID on YouTube
If you can add your Twitter ID on Facebook, why not on YouTube? Go to your YouTube channel and click on your profile. Select "YouTube Settings > Connected Accounts > Connect your Twitter."

12. Follow Your Competitors' Followers
Take a chance and follow your opponent's followers and who knows they might get interested about your tweets.

13. Don't be Afraid to Give Something
Giving free tips, services, and possible products may cause your tweets and your profile to spread on Twitter. Share something and be noticed.

14. Send @messages to non-followers
Social sites are not different from chatrooms, although they may function differently. There is nothing wrong saying "hi" to a non-follower and maybe a simple presence or conversation can get you a follower after all.

15. Use Ads
The tips above are 100 per cent free and more on efforts, but if you have the budget, try paying Twitter to have your account suggested to potential followers using "Promoted Accounts."
