For Twitter users ‘subscribers’ may sound a little bit strange instead of ‘followers’ but this site (and this one too ) use that to describe those who listen to another person’s updates. At least it sounds right for microblogging. To get more subscribers/followers on any microblogging site is no means task especially if you want to create an audience that just loves to listen to your updates. So many bloggers ,Twitter users and others recommend following as many people so that they may follow you back. But this can turn out to be not so productive in the long term since much of your stream will be noisy. The truth is that many people only respond to tweets/shouts/notices from those who have a strategic importance to their goals; the rest are listened to rarely. There are so many ways through which one can attract more followers/subscribers on any microblogging service and offering great content is one way. Great content for microblogging can be:

1. NEWS: You just can't beat news updates in creating more followers /subscribers. For example did you know that Microsoft ditched its Live Spaces blogging platform for Wordpress.com? What about " Wikipedia uses P2P Technology to show its video content "? And I hope you heard about LibreOffice? You see news, especially technology news, can boost your visibility on any microblogging site if people come to trust your reputation and tweet/repost your updates. So look around you. Do you have access to news sources? Are you smack right there in an organization that makes things happen? You have an advantage over the rest of the microblogging masses.Note: Retweeting / reposting of the latest news updates can also increase ones follower / subscribers too. This just shows that you are ‘up to date’, too.
2. ITS-ALREADY-BEEN-SAID CONTENT BUT WITH A PERSONAL TOUCH: I will call this adding some spin to information that many already know about. For example everything about creating websites is already known but you can attach some personal touch to that content breathing life into it and setting yourself apart. Maybe it can be through your writing style or your personal experiences or something that makes you unique. Now condense this content into short microblogging posts and you will attract people to your profile. For a fuller display of your uniqueness, you can link to blog posts or information you have written elsewhere. 
3.  WITTY CONVERSATIONS: Display some wit in your @ replies and I will love your conversations. Drop a witty quote and I will not forget about it. Go on like this and who will not be attracted to you?
