uSocial.net is one of the many companies trying to cash in on the Twitter craze. This company is offering a variety of Twitter-related marketing services. In fact, the demand for the service has been so fierce that the uSocial.net moved up their launch date.
Said uSocial.net spokesperson Serena Adamson: “Although the initial launch date is only a few weeks away, we saw no reason why we shouldn’t launch immediately. We want to begin letting people reap the benefits of Twitter marketing now, so we’re going to make it active in just two days.”
According to their website, uSocial.net will provide 2,500 Twitter followers within two weeks for $147. For 5,000 Twitter followers, the price is $267. For $497, you can get 10,000 Twitter followers.
uSocial.net offers additional Twitter-related marketing services including a service that will send out three tweets per day with a personalized message.
We will attempt to contact uSocial.net to learn more about their services.

So does that mean uSocial helps them to acquire thousands of followers by legitimate means? Doubt it, because that takes much longer. So they somehow force the likes of you and me to follow in our thousands? Impossible, I thought. So the only option is to offer thousands of low-value ‘ghost’ accounts they have created themselves… I can see the value – it’s just like renting an email list – but can someone explain how this works? Confused…
Why not just purchase something like TwitterSnipe yourself for less money and handle it yourself? Then you can easily control the keywords used by followers that you target and make sure the people you’re after are worth the investment. Seems silly to pay $250 for 5000 followers when you can buy something like TwitterSnipe for $100.
The marketing professional John Chow made a service that is essentially a database of people who if you follow, they will follow you back. I think it is free? It’s called Twitter Follower. If you want a really easy way to simply increase your Followers number, this is a great tool. I dont use it, because I feel that genuinely interested followers is better than quantity. It comes to a point where it’s basically a false Follower count and your conversion rate is lower because you have so many people, all of which are not interested in your product, but want a higher follower number on their own side.
