Using Fiverr to get Twitter followers?

I have never personally had any experience with these types of gigs. I would imagine that some of the followers may be bot generated, as I can't quite wrap my head around how it would be possible to generate that many real twitter followers in that short of time. But I'm curious to see what others might have to say about it.

I agree Pumpinpatch about how one can accumulate so many real followers...and that they can farm out as well, I saw ads for posting to their 800,000 follower list also which sounded fishy too. only $5 to check it out but hey that's a happy meal here! thanks for your reply btw.

Most are bots. If you're only going for a numbers game, it's fine. But if you're looking for people to actually interact with, build lists with, drive traffic, etc, it's pretty worthless to use the fiverr gigs (speaking from experience).

Put poop in .. get poop out.

Be careful because most of the time they will disappear in a week. You'll have better luck buying followers from a reputable company and paying $50 or joining a Follow exchange network.

I've had great luck with Twitter buys, but just be certain to *READ REVIEWS*.

Reviews are king. If guy has 0 reviews (or even low quantity) look elsewhere

All are fake based on my experience

Yep all are bot generated. No value at all. Besides, who cares about quantity over quality. Take your time and build a following of targeted followers. I have used software like Tweetadder with much success.

Piggy back off others who have a huge following meaning:

1. Find someone who is an expert in your niche who has a ton of followers
2. Follow them
3. Start following their followers, majority of them will follow you back

Then just continue to use Twitter as you normally would, and continue to follow the steps I have outlined.

Majority of them are bots...it really depends on what you are trying to do here. If you are just trying to gain followers to make your account look good etc, then you could purchase those kind of gigs but just make sure to read the testimonials first! Otherwise, build your twitter followers slowly because you obviously want real followers to build real relationships.

Go with a reliable seller where your followers stick and then start manually hunting down 300-500 TARGETED followers.

This is how twitter marketing is done.

You need the big numbers to get going to look reliable and ALSO get over the 2k hump so you can get REAL people

1. If you use fiverr and they actually get you real people they will ask for login details. If you see that you can trust them do it.
2. Most fiverr programs offer fake profiles which will not help you at all.
3. Buy a program to do it yourself. I own three.

Top two are tweeternaire and
twiping


Both are excellent, I know you can get tweeternaire from here cause I did.
I bought twiping off the net. Both of these guys are still updating the programs.

Believe me, all the followers/fans/subscribers/etc that you have to pay for are garbage. Even if they're real people, they won't follow you offers or newsletters, they're gonna be there just for the looks. You want your followers to follow you willingly

I am not very certain about this.Does not look realistic but just Bots.

It is a better idea,
but some times fiver treat it as no 2 choice,
but the result is good.

These followers will be probably not too much interested in the topics you tweet about. However, if you have a good reason to use such services, there are also free alternatives like SocialClerks. These websites work in a very easy way - you follow other members, for every following you earn credits and the credits can be used to "buy" followers for your Twitter account.

Actually, you can use these services not only to get Twitter followers, but also Facebook likes or followers in other supported social networks.

The last time I bought something like that from Fiverr was last year. There was no interaction at all, and within a few days, people started unfollowing me. Many of them are other bots and other marketers trying to do the exact same thing - add people. It might be different now, but I doubt it.

It's better to search for your targeted keyword in Twitter search box and then follow the persons who are taking about your topic, they will follow you back and will be highly targeted prospects as well.

Cheers!

The search function is a amazing tool. Check it out!

I steer clear of things like this because bot generations only generate numbers for your total followers, not income. You're better off generating them naturally by sticking to it daily and following a process. Give a little to your followers and they're bound to give back.

No. These fiverr twitter followers suck, and don't have a heart beat.

Don't buy Twitter followers.

They're all bots.

The "everyone loves a winner" theory doesn't apply to fake Twitter followers.

Anybody who sees a page with 10,000 fake followers will instantly know they're fake.

Why?

No legitimate activity on their accounts! No re-tweets of their posts!

Nobody likes a loser, and fake Twitter followers make you look like a loser.

You will not get real followers, they are bots. Quite a few of them openly state they are bots but some do not. They are good for 'social proof' and not much else, they won't interact with your account at all but definitely a good way to start attracting traffic naturally. People want to follow something they think is already popular as they are scared they might something useful or cool so boosting your numbers with a few thousand fake accounts isn't necessarily a bad idea.

One thing you have to look out for is that Twitter are really clamping down on fake accounts recently and almost every seller on Fiverr had the majority of their Twitter accounts closed down a few weeks back. What this meant was that anyone who had placed an order and had their followers added suddenly found them all disappearing overnight. Caused a lot of problems. At $5 you're not going to be too worried but it might look bad for your page and if you made multiple orders then you might not be too happy.

Why don't you test instead of asking about this, its just a gig, create an account test it and you'll know for sure if its really working, may be you can then share your experience which can help us a lot warriors here ;-)

I wouldn't bother, I used fiverr in the past for twitter followers it was more of an experiment to see if they were indeed any good but I can say from my experience they are mostly bots.

I did this myself just to see if it worked.

I got followers... real people. The problem was that:

1) The person doing the gig followed me to around a thousand people

2) These obviously weren't quality followers. Just people who had used some software to automatically follow those who followed them.

I wasn't expecting much, however spent much more than $5 worth of time unfollowing everyone who the fiverr freelancer followed on my behalf.

Hey, i have recently used fiverr and will be waiting for delievery. Ill be sure to keep you posted and see if it was worth it!

Why you want to buy Twitter followers? If you can't get them to follow then it is not worth to buy. Mostly are fake and you know how hard it is getting the real followers.

My advice: save your 5$. It is small amount but value it.

In my experience, if you follow people, they will most of the time follow you back.
Don't bother buying followers. It's not worth even 2 bucks.

These are not real followers.

I've been experimenting with twitter for ages now and the only way I can see to get real followers is to follow/unfollow or fluke some kinda viral effect, which I've so far been unable to replicate.

I don't know about Twitter but I did "buy" 500 likes on Facebook through Fiverr, one or two of them actually read some of the stuff I put out1

They have to be fake followers. Same with paid FB followers, paid G+ followers, paid anything followers.

Think about it.
* Have you ever been paid to follow someone? If someone was being paid to follow you, how interested do you think they would be in your page?
* How would you feel if you found someone had added you as a follower to an account without telling you, and had been paid to do so? How would they get access to your account to do that?

I just don't understand where people think these paid followers come from. Come on peeps, think about it.

People saying "don't ever buy Twitter followers because they aren't real" are missing the point. Of course they aren't real, targeted, followers because that would cost more than $5. The point in buying fake followers is that it helps your naturally attract REAL people. If someone comes across your Twitter account and you have 36 followers there's a good chance they'll not follow you. Show them the same account again a week later and it was 25,000 followers they'll probably follow. Use the fake fans just to build up the numbers and bring in real fans, nothing else.

I've been let down by this type of fiverr gig a few times. The old saying if iss too good to be true it probably is.

The temptation with fiverr is that the investment is low and expectations can be lowered. I have found that is a TOTAL waste. Zero traffic. Nothing real behind the numbers.

Those followers/fans/subscribers that you purchase are gonna be there just for the looks. They'll never follow your newsletters or offers. They're gonna be just to boost your e-ego. People should follow you willingly

I've never used this but I can almost guarantee it's a waste of money.
Try responding to other people tweets, tweet often and follow back.

In my opinion, it really doesn't matter if the followers are bots. Having lots of followers helps you have social clout. It's a psychological thing...girls (and guys) all want to hang out with the popular guy. With that said, I advise against buying them from Fiverr anyway because Twitter catches these guys every so often and shuts the sellers down. If you purchased from that seller you are out of luck.

Don't do it...

Low quality, bot-based followers. The first time someone looks you up using the StatusPeople fake follower check, you will be forever outed as a big phony, and you will lose all credibility. This is the case for ALL purchased followers, not just Fiverr.

I have tried it but it's not really working. Most of the followers are fake and won't do good with your business. I suggest you get someone to do it for you or you could do it yourself if you have enough time. Bots and other automated software aren't really that effective for me based on my experience. I just get someone to work in increasing followers and it was a great idea, I was able to meet my goals though it might take time but its all worth it.

It is good to use as many sources as possible. But overall I don't think that fiverr will get you too many returns. You are better off learning how to maximize other available sources

Even if the follower are real, it totally depends on what you want to build a following for. If you want to build a following of 10,000+ so you can start posting sponsored tweets etc, you have to think that the twitter followers you will get from the fiverr gig won't be that responsive.

It's like building a list of email subscribers. I can add 300 subscribers to my list very easily for $5, but none will ever open my emails. Again, make sure to read Twitter's TOS and comply or they will shut you down.

It takes time, but try to build up a natural following. You can always find someone who has a massive following in your niche, but not the same, and start following their followers in order to have some of them follow you back. Be careful of this though as mass following will get your account suspended.

If you aim to follow between 50-100 targeted, relevant people each day, spread out over the day (very important!), you will build a following of people who actually read your tweets and click your links.

Fiverr sellers are selling for a reason. Believe me, with a list of 800,000 followers you can make a LOT more money from one tweet than $5. Either they are unresponsive or fake followers in the first place, or the gig has been sold so many times that it's become a spammy account.

Hope this helps.

Just to add to that, I've used the fiverr gigs before to send out a message to loads of followers. This was to direct traffic to a squeeze page. I tracked it and out of 100,000 followers, not one of them clicked the link in the tweet.

Fiverr gigs about twitter followers will boost your numbers. But they are bots & none active accounts. Or accounts belongs to a single person, who use those accounts for this purpose only.

I used various gigs to get "hype" for one of my twitter accounts related to my niche site. It helps to at least show potential real followers that "hey if they have followed him, maybe his popular and it might be worth my time". Yes 100% user generated but if you use these followers smartly you can gain real followers

I was bought 1k twitter followers but my seller was sent me follower via some bot and after 1 days twitter banned me and remove all follower.

Which is the best way for buy followes from fiverr?

If you want to increase only number then its perfectly fine to buy these followers but they will react just like dummy they never participate in discussion.topic or in retweet action. So for number game i think its OK.

Fake followers hurt more than they help, there are tools that anyone can use to check for fake followers and those who have high percentages are publicly "outed" - you lose all credibility on twitter once people see your followers are fake, thus defeating the purpose of having the higher follower count in the first place.

Thanks for the information, I have seen the gigs too but resisted the temptation to order because I didn't think they were actually people...how could they be?

Pretty much all are bots, and will be banned very quickly and they are inactive.

I do not recoomend Fiverr gig for traffic, as this is all so called real visitors are just like ppv and useless, unless you need traffic for any Flippa site.
But for backlinks like Angela Backlinks which are done manually or senuke or xrumer links. fiverr is the best outsource.

I have a Twitter account which I did not use for around 6 months. After I logged in one day, I found it had 3000 plus followers in it. What was that all about???

I have used this service, but there were no conversions at all. It seems buying Twitter, Youtube or Facebook Likes are only worth getting if you want an increase in numbers but not for conversions.

Not the way to go if you want real followers to interact and engage with.

If you just want to grow your fake list, just do it. But if you want to earn money from those, please dont. Sellers on Fiverr use some 3rd party websites to drive them to your page. I could say that it's maybe little "black hat"

Fake Twitter followers and Likes are a waste for the most part. Some people say that buying a couple thousand Likes or followers makes your page look more like an "authority" page. In my experience, you do much better getting legitimate followers. And you also risk getting your social network accounts banned for violating the TOS.

Honestly most of them are fake followers and not targeted. It's nice having a big following, but when you have no body interacting or retweeting your posts, it looks bad. I would buy a 1,000 at the most and then make a list of people with big followings to interact with their followers.

Most of the SEO and Follow/Like gigs on Fiverr are bogus, those are bots

They will most likely be fake

Only buy from fiverr if you are growing an account and need follower number on profile which helps to grow account faster. But the followers are fakes and has no other use. It's better to do things manually or buy programs to do that in a automated way. Hope this helps.

Most gigs from Twitter are selling Fake followers. Almost none of them are genuine as far as my experience goes.
