Selling Twitter Profiles

[decipher]

Hi,

I wonder if or when people will start selling Twitter Profiles. I seen it happen before through other means. Do you think down the road people will start selling their Twitter profiles (if they even allow it for that matter..)

Thanks!

Hmm, that's a very good question. As to whether that would be allowed, I can't remember if you can even have multiple handles but will try find out. I think if there's money to be made, sure, people will do it.

It won't be allowed, just as any other social network, but people will definitely go around selling their Twitter profiles. Spammers may buy accounts with loads of followers for their evil purposes.

If you have a PR4 and a competitive niche
and lots of followers someone will buy it
( if only as an experiment).

But, the most fun twitbot for free is
the autotweet Auto Tweet Info

A lot of people are so lazy building up their own twitter profile and increasing their followers so they might just be the ones who will buy twitter accounts that contains tons of followers.. but I doubt if someone will really sell their twitter account if they had build their reputation over the site..

You don't have to think about it as selling your soul.

One program puts in the advertisers background.

One other program will add an ad tweet (at a ratio that you determine such as 1 ad per 200 tweets or 1 ad per 1-3-5-10-15-20-30-40-50 or 100 tweets). You can even pre-approve any ads first.

And it's not like you lose control.

If you don't like it, you just pull out.

I don't see the point in buying someone else's Twitter profile. If I was following someone, and another perspn took over that account, I'd just un-follow them. I wouldn't bother hanging around to see what this unknown quantity had to say. Surely it's better just to build your own from the start?

hmm.. depends.. how many followers have you got in there? If it's a pretty decent number, i.e. way above 1k, it wun be a problem.
