Is Buying Twitter Followers Worthwhile?

. 2 min read

Can’t grow your Twitter profile as you planned so are you thinking of buying Twitter followers? While it takes a lot of patience to build a Twitter profile, most of you would rather just shell out some money and buy Twitter followers.

Before you go ahead and take this step, stop and think what your reasons are for buying Twitter followers?

  • Are you creating a Twitter profile just for namesake with no plans of using it?
  • Would you be happy to have a Twitter profile with 10,000 followers but no real engagement?

If your answer is no, then allow me to explain what happens when you buy followers.

What Buying Twitter Followers Actually Mean:

You can buy any number of Twitter followers from a few hundred to millions. Just type on Google “buy Twitter followers” and you will have thousands of “reliable” sites selling followers. The minute you buy and check your Twitter profile, you will see the number of follower bought added to your Twitter profile.

Now, if you open some of these profiles, you will notice they are mostly dead Twitter accounts from random countries with no association to your Twitter account. Over time, you will realize that all you got are fake or bot Twitter accounts who never interact with your tweets.

You might think that you at least managed to improve your Twitter follower numbers, but it’s just a futile exercise. Engagement is the king on social media and if you’re not getting any engagement from your fake followers, it’s of no use to you. In some situations, you can also get your Twitter account suspended.

Answering what we actually started with, is buying Twitter followers worthwhile? No. It’s a short-term strategy with no actual contribution to your Twitter account.  

Long-Term Strategy to a Healthy Twitter Account:

If you want quick results with less effort, then I would suggest rather than spending on buying fake followers, you should spend that amount on a genuine Twitter tool. For example, a tool like Circleboom can be of great help in such situations.

Circleboom can help you follow genuine accounts with the help of hashtags, keywords, and follower of related accounts.

Tools like Circleboom help you in growing your Twitter account within Twitter boundaries. Because Circleboom doesn’t allow mass following, it always make sure that your Twitter followers and numbers are in no danger. And, you’re never at risk of account suspension.

The best part is Circleboom comes at a price as low as $4.50 per month and helps you with tweet scheduling and Twitter analytics. You can learn more about Circleboom features here and how it can help you in managing your Twitter account.
