This pisses me off too

I was considering buying a tool to help me gain followers on twitter so that I can more readily spread the news when I update my blog.  I hesitated because I kept getting sent to these cheasy one page opt-in pages where they would tell you nothing until you supplied your name and email address.  Obviously they are building a list and one hand I can’t blame them for that, after all business is business.  This isn’t what’s really pissing me off.

So I opted into a couple to see what they had to offer.  After all they were promising riches and all.  I was astonished at what I saw.  One “twitter friend getter” cost $39.95 a month!  ARE YOU KIDDING ME?  I guess the price is so high because it’s an affiliate deal and they want you to help them spread the good news about their most wonderful, most bestest tool ever.  This is what really pissed me off.  I find it hard to believe that there are people out there that would promote a tool that is no better than what you can get for FREE.  That’s right free.

I’m not making any money by giving you this information.  But I will be able to sleep tonight knowing that I actually helped someone without taking advantage of them.  These people pray on the un-informed masses and I see that as unethical at best.

I found a free…yes free…software program that has gained me almost 600 followers in less than a week.  I had 650 followers Sunday night, today at 4pm I had over 850.  So why do I need to give some unethical guru my hard earned money when I have access to software like this for free?  I don’t and I won’t and if you’re smart you won’t either.

Here’s the link to get the software for free…

This program does not allow you to search for friends using keywords, but you get access to followers of followers, etc.  I added 250 friends at a time two or three times a day.  When you add them about 80% follow you back.  You can then view your friends who are not following you and trim the fat so to speak.  I had found a free twitter tool that would search out friends using specific keywords, but I forgot to bookmark it and now can’t find it.  (If you know which website I’m talking about PLEASE comment below)

Please leave comments and please spread the link to this blog page so that others can grow their business tools without spending a lot of money.
