  • I follow people who tweet content interesting to me.
  • I don’t auto-follow
  • When someone follows me I will try to check out their profile within a few days to decide whether to manually follow them back.
  • I follow people I know in the real world.
  • I am more likely to follow people based in Singapore or around SE Asia.
  • I will follow people I’ve had discussions with on Twitter.
  • Profiles which include descriptions like SEO guru, marketing maven, etc are usually a turn off.
  • Receiving an auto-direct message upon following someone is a pet peeve. I haven’t unfollowed anyone for that yet but the day will come…
