You’ll notice that many of these schools do not have more than 100 followers. There are two main reasons for this.
- The first reason the follower numbers of these various schools and organizations is so low is because many of these institutions just signed up for Twitter a few months ago. It takes time to grow your list of followers. Do not expect a huge rush of followers immediately after registering your account. This is a long term game and the followers will come with time.
- The other main reason the numbers are so low on many of these schools is because they are not interacting with their community. To be blunt, they aren’t using Twitter in the best way possible! You will see that the schools with the lowest number of followers are usually the ones who are using Twitter simply as a message board for school events. Those that listen, interact and exchange ideas with their community tend to have a much larger following.
