4: Write for Shares

Good content is useful, inspiring, or otherwise beneficial for readers. When you are sharing a great message, your followers will be excited to share your content with others, broadening your reach and improving web presence. To increase followers, make sure to follow back those that choose to follow you, and engage new followers or contributors by sending out personalized messages or promotions.

5: Limit Keywords and Hashtags

7: Choose Quality Over Quantity
