Want 330 Worthless Followers?



Four months ago, @lifewithryan told me about accidentally getting unwanted followers simply by tweeting the wrong thing. I set up a test account to see how that might work. I sent out 2 stupid tweets, and got 330 followers over the four months.





This would be a fun contest! See how many followers you can get by sending out just one tweet, over seven days. Rules: you have to set up a new account, and send just one tweet, and then hop over to twittercounter and do a search on your new account so that you are tracked. (to prove it's your new account, you should probably tweet the name of the new account from your usual account.)

I got 330 followers in 4 months with 2 tweets. How many can you get in 7 days with just 1 tweet on a new account?


By the way, in case you are new to this blog, I should tell you that Amy Iris is an extensible bot that you can place on your website, like I have at the top of this blog post.
