WeFollow Twitter Directory: Tweet Your Tags
March 16th, 2009Why is everyone tweeting tags to @wefollow? Kevin Rose of Digg has created WeFollow, the first user powered Twitter directory which tracks the top Twitter users (with most followers) under various categories.
How to add your blog to WeFollow Twitter Directory? Simply tweet this
@wefollow #yourtag #yourtag #yourtag
Remember to replace #yourtag with the tags you’d like to be listed under. So you could send a twitter message like
@wefollow #tech #blogs #web
Remember you can choose a maximum of 3 tags. Choose wisely as there are hundreds of tags out there. Of course it is advisable to select tags which match your niche, but see how you can rank higher on the tag page depending on the number of users in that tag, how popular they are and if the tag is featured on the front page.
Finally ranking higher is all about getting more Twitter followers – by contests, hooking follow-back users, becoming a favorite with Twitter staff, or maybe buying a favorite spot.
So are Tweeple actually messaging @Wefollow? A quick Twitter search reveals hundreds of Twitter users are sending in their tags every minute!
Although it will eventually bring more traffic and followers to those who are already popular on Twitter, the way bloggers are rushing to get listed, it seems Kevin Rose has created a winner again.









I just heard about this this morning and tried it myself. It’s a great idea!
Registered right after I read your article. Thanks for sharing! :)
Check out http://www.TweetTop.com for who to follow on twitter in many different categories. Similar to wefollow but a mix of UGC and editorial controlled (as opposed to wefollow which lets users self classify).
TwitR is a user Twitter user directory. http://twitr.org
A Twitter Directory for the rest of us. Twitter Directory 2000. Wefollow is too celebrity dominated.
