Recently, like everyone else in the known universe, we’ve been talking a lot about Twitter and in particular their suggested follow list – that’s the little VIP area where they promote 100 users they think are going to be of use to a decent number of twitterers. As a result of our coverage we’ve had a couple of questions from ambitious clients asking how they can get onto said list, so we thought we’d just come out and explain once and for all.
First of all, it’s very difficult. There’s a lot of people on Twitter and only a hundred places in the promised land, so the odds are against you – particularly as around half the people in the top 100 are at least a bit famous and you (most probably) are not.
However, there are companies and resources in there, sites like, NPR Politics, TechCrunch, BBC click, so it is possible; very, very difficult but possible. According to Twitter, a site needs to successfully complete three steps in order to be considered for the top one hundred.
Tune in tomorrow to find out what they are (Sorry)
