Ten directories to help you follow on Twitter and get followers

People can be found on Twitter to follow using “find people”, if the potential follower knows their name or account or if they allow their email as a search reference. Another way to find people is if they enter a Twitter profile that includes a title to search for, such as “coach” or “author.” However, these methods will only help to find a few people, since many more can appear that do not really meet the user’s desired requirements. A more targeted approach to finding people to follow (following) and could follow (followers) is needed to ensure you get the best insights from the right experts or potential audience.

Twitter is such a popular communication tool that many directories have been created around it that can be used to make it easy to follow the people you want. Many of these directories are free or have a small fee for professional use. Some also provide space for Twitter users to say more about themselves than is allowed in the 160-character Twitter profile, making it easier for others to learn more and decide to become followers of a particular account. Below are ten of the most popular directories currently available to easily find people on Twitter by keyword category or user location.

Category directories:

1. Twellow (twellow.com) – Known as the Twitter Yellow Pages as it is updated with new accounts added to Twitter.

2. Twiends (twiends.com) Similar to Twellow in the ability to find accounts with similar interests.

3. Twubs (twubs.com/) – Directory of users who use event or topic categories using hashtags on Twitter.

4. We Follow (wefollow.com) – Similar to Tweet Find but with more category tags.

5. AdExchanger (adexchanger.com/Twitter-directory/): Scroll through the list of Twitter accounts to find people to follow within a desired category.

6. Twitter Directory (twitterdir.com): Find businesses by subcategories

7. Mr. Tweet (mrtweet.com) – Discontinued directory that contains a community of users rather than by category, but can be used the same way. Twitter now offers suggestions of who to follow, so this associated program has been removed.

Location Directories:

8. Twopcharts (wopcharts.com): Allows users to find others based on city or language.

9. Socialbearing (socialbearing.com): Allows text-based search by location of Twitter users or those using specific hashtags.

10. Local Tweeps (localtweeps.com): Allows you to search for Twitter users who sign up to be in the directory by zip code.

Review various directories and then consider which directory provides the most efficient targeting approach to finding the right people to follow and who you can follow to get the best desired information or to find the right audience for tweets.
