Comments on: #Follow Friday – Recommending Tweeters http://www.urban-seo.com/2009/07/follow-friday/ Urban SEO | Social Media Thu, 29 Jul 2010 10:47:19 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: admin http://www.urban-seo.com/2009/07/follow-friday/comment-page-1/#comment-1678 admin Fri, 21 Aug 2009 19:10:35 +0000 http://www.urban-seo.com/?p=1025#comment-1678 The only problem is keeping up with the list. I was getting pretty good about it then we got really busy! What I have been doing is adding the names on a list and then going back to write about them. Problem I found is some of these people turned out to be spammers. At one point I had 3030 followers. Cleaned out my spammer and now I am down to 2900 plus. Not a big deal but I feel it's better to have a clean sleight with good solid followers rather than thousands of people that don't really pay attention or engage! Thanks for dropping by Leora :) The only problem is keeping up with the list. I was getting pretty good about it then we got really busy!

Lots of great recommendations here, and I enjoyed the process of learning about #FollowFriday. Brian aka @bkmacdaddy makes a list every Friday; I admire him for doing so. I wrote a post a few weeks ago (using Brian's idea and post) about Mr. Tweet and how I get overwhelmed by what I call the #followfriday flood. <a href="http://www.leoraw.com/blog/2009/08/twitter-time-and-mr-tweet/" rel="nofollow">Twitter Time and Mr. Tweet</a> I am glad you tweeted this post.

I love to tell people some real pointers and the 140 character really takes it all away. I am glad you like this I am sure I already have you on my lists. Lolol I have the list ready for the next month. I know I did one on you. What I am enjoying is adding everyone's links. It's almost like giving away a free link on a page that Google cannot scoff at since this is legitimate. ;) Well I had to come up with something that would not seem so “rehearsed” and limiting.

When it comes to #FF, it always seems to be more than 140 characters when describing a person. You've always been thorough in your recommendations in tweets; however I do see a much better intro and effectiveness when been brought to your blog post. Very well done, and prompt me to know my twitter friend better. ^^ Thanks you as I've added some nice people today. This is one brilliant idea.

I figure you would inspire or should I say "smell" another article regarding how to make #FF better. I was actually thinking about calling out some of the people I would <strong>not</strong> follow. I would go as far as mentioning the ones I have blocked. Now that would be a juicy post. Just so we are clear I am only recommending the people I feel & know have something real to share, valuable information. The ultimate goals is to network people that add value to our days & of course our business. Thanks Bonnie you are a Rock Star in my book. Now now honored is a bit strong… but okay I will take it.

Really, so many people just select names of people that they never really interact with and that have a high following in hopes that they will automatically recommend them back. Yes, there are FollowFriday Spam tactics....and you heard it hear first (maybe second) (hmmmm, do I smell an article on revamp of follow fridays issues, process and practices :-) ...) The point is, I do know you are selective, and for you take the time to write such a lovely post and mention those folks is better then any #ff that I could ever receive. So, happy follow friday to you, and may all your fridays be happy ones. I feel honored by you adding me to your list of follow friday tweeters.
