Sounds a little harsh., But yes, there are companies and people who make a living with Twitter. And many! Just as there are people who make a living with esoteric services on phones 900 and websites of dubious content, Twitter is for many professionals a livelihood.

For starters, app developers make their August with Twitter, one of the fastest growing networks with more than 100 millions of users. For example, here are some of the most used:

I don't follow, every day there are many apps created to improve the Twitter experience. For our latitudes, the best-known apps are Tweetdeck. Twitpick, Twit this and Quitter. I promise to make a “review” of the most significant applications in future posts.

In addition to applications, many companies make a living getting you “followers” or followers to make your profile look important. Personally I bet on more qualitative profiles, but the truth is that a lot of people make a living with Twitter.

It's a whole universe. It would be interesting to know how those who make a living are made “Hunt” Followers.

Best regards.

Of course, it's an evolving universe. I left a lot of apps that are almost duplicated from other developers.

The topic of follower hunters pursues a strictly advertising benefit. As you'll see on your twitter page, there are often “trending topics” Sponsored. When you click those hashtags you go to Twitter pages with commercial offers.

Twitter has been investing for a long time and without benefits, but now they're starting to spot ad revenue opportunities. It wouldn't be strange if in a short time twitter generated accounts “Premium” allow more direct access to those you're interested in, less spam and more selective warnings.

Thank you for writing.
