7 Ways To Get More Followers On Vine Fast

July 13, 2014 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

Although Vine is not as big as Twitter or Facebook, it has millions of members that generate a lot of engagement. When Instagram came out with its 15 second video loop, many people thought that Vine was dead. Remember when people tweeted out things like, “Vine (2013-2013)?” Those days are over, and people are now searching for ways to get more followers on Vine. Speaking of getting more followers on Vine, here are seven ways that you can do that.

Follow other people. I follow the people who are following those “I Follow Back” accounts. Vine is the only social network that I do this for, but it works. On a typical day, when I follow enough people, I am able to gain 300 followers every day. This even happened when I didn’t send a Vine for an entire month. I just continued to follow these people’s followers to grow my audience.
Post 1 Vine every day. Although the first method grows your following without requiring you to post on Vine, you will be able to spread faster on Vine by posting often. The people with millions of followers on Vine are the ones who post new vines consistently. Their audience shares their content and ultimately results in the vines spreading. If people who happen to see your vines think they are good, then those people will decide to follow you.
Tweet out your vines. Tweets with vines get more engagement than the tweets without vines. In addition, you get to tap into the audience that you already built on Twitter. If you continue tweeting your vines, your Vine audience will grow as your Twitter audience grows.
Tell your friends about your Vine account. Your friends may be the first ones to like and revine your vines (which allows your vines to spread). The likes and revines may not come right away, but if you tell enough of your friends about your vines, some of those friends will help your vines spread.
Get a group of friends together and do vines together. It seems as if there multiple groups of famous viners who happen to know each other and appear in each other’s vines. If you get a group of friends together to do the same thing, you will all have each other’s audiences. If you get five of your friends who have 1,000 followers each, that’s an audience of 5,000. As you tag each other in various vines, members of the audience will learn to enjoy your vines and your friends’ vines.
Use Instagram. Vine allows you to create 6 second videos that repeat in a loop, but they do not allow you to take pictures. Instagram is the solution. When you need to take a picture, take one with Instagram. Then, be sure to tell people on Vine to follow you on Instagram. The more social networks people follow you on, the less likely they will be to forget about you.
Comment on other people’s vines. Leaving comments on other people’s vines is an easy way to get noticed. When you comment on other people’s vines, don’t just ask for a shoutout or a follow back. Instead, leave a relevant comment. Leaving a relevant comment will also boost your chances of getting another follower.

Growing your audience on Vine does not have to be impossible. Most of the people on Vine with over 1 million followers are teenagers. Anyone has the ability to thrive on Vine if they know how. Implementing these methods will allow you to build a big audience on Vine fast.

Vine is a social network on the rise with over 40 million users. Vine will continue growing, but in order to take advantage of Vine’s growth, your content needs to spread. Some people have gone viral on Vine while others struggle to get one person to revine their Vine. Getting more revines is super important towards you going viral on Vine and gaining hundreds of followers every day. In order to get more revines on Vine, follow these 8 tips:

Get more followers on Vine. In order to get more revines, people need to know about you. By building your following, you will build an audience of people who will be more likely to revine your videos. I wrote an entire blog post that goes more into detail about how you can get more followers on Vine.
Post content that people would want to revine. Your followers are not going to revine a six second video of a torn up couch. Ask yourself if your friends would revine what you are putting up. If they wouldn’t revine what you posted on Vine, then few people will.
Revine other people’s videos. In order to get more revines for your videos, you need to revine other people’s videos. Some of these people will revine you back while other people will revine you so they get a revine back.
Have a giveaway. If you give away a $25 Amazon Gift Card to one person who revines your video, then most of your followers will come by and revine your video. Who here doesn’t want a $25 Amazon Gift Card?
Use your other social networks to promote your videos on Vine. If you already established a strong presence on one of your social networks, don’t try to reinvent the wheel. Use your strong following on one of your social networks to get some awareness for another social network.
Get some of your friends on Vine. If you are in each other’s videos, then if one friend goes viral, then you all go viral. In addition, you will be able to revine each other and then get more revines from your followers.
Vine every day. If you post one video to Vine every day, your revine rate will go up. Better yet, try posting two videos on Vine every day. It only takes six seconds to create a video (unless you are doing stunts and need retakes).
Don’t give in. You may not a substantial difference in the amount of revines you get within a few days or weeks. However, you will eventually see a big difference in the number of revines you get. By not giving in, you will be able to see the big change happen.

Those are 8 ways to get more revines on Vine. What are your thoughts on the list? Do you have any additional methods you use to get more revines? Please share your thoughts and advice below.

How To Become Vine Famous

March 19, 2014 by Marc Guberti Leave a Comment

I took off from Vine for some time because I did not see the engagement I wanted to see from putting in my hard work. Then, I figured out how to get more engagement on Vine. Now, I am gaining over 600 followers every day on Vine and know exactly how to become the next Vine sensation. In fact, I could end up with 100,000 followers before 2015.

The formula to getting more followers and engagement for your vines is a simple process to follow because there are only two parts. The first part is posting on Vine every day. The most famous people on Vine post at least once every day while some post more than 5 times on other days. That does put imagination and creativity to the test when you have to think of an idea for a Vine every single day. However, the process becomes easier as you start creating vines.

The second part is following other people. Vine’s following rules are not nearly as strong as Twitter’s following rules. I follow much more people than I actually have following me. I also do this on Pinterest. If you want to get the best results from following people on Vine, go to Vine’s search. Then enter in “ifollowback.” On other social networks Team Follow Back has been criticized because you don’t get a target audience. However, doing this on Vine will result in people who are eager to share anything that is cool, shocking, or hilarious. That’s where your vines fit in.

Ever since applying these methods, my Vines went from having 2 likes to having well over 10 likes. In addition, the people who like one of your Vines are also likely to like your other vines as well. If you have 50 people who like one of your vines, chances are your other vines are not far behind. They probably have 20-40 likes as well. That’s why the famous viners have thousands of likes per vine. If a follower likes one of their vines, that follower tends to like more of that person’s vines. The people who are getting over 100,000 likes for their vines also happen to have 1 million followers.

More real followers equates to more likes. I have been using this formula to get over 300 followers on Vine every day. I may even get over 100,000 followers on Vine before 2015 and become the next famous viner. The best part is that being famous on Vine trickles into your other social networks. Famous viners are also gaining over 5,000 followers on Twitter every day while others gain more than that.

Becoming a Vine sensation is not as impossible as it seems. It requires consistent work, but it does not require difficult work.

5 Ways To Get More Followers On Vine

Are you utilizing the newest social network on the web to get more social media followers? Some people have not mastered the ability to record a video in 6 seconds. Others have gained millions of followers on multiple social networks because they have mastered the art of creating a 6-second video on Vine. Whether you know how to create a good 6-second video or not, the amount of followers you gain on Vine will have an impact on how popular you are on Vine.

If you have a big following, people will gravitate towards you and see what you are all about. The more popular you become on Vine, the more people will pay attention to your six-second videos. Before you thrive on Vine, you need to build the credibility and get the big following first. In order to grow your following on Vine, follow these 5 tips:

#1: Scroll down your home page and use Vine’s search to find and like vines. Liking vines is the best way to get more followers without following back. The more vines you like, the more people are going to follow back. However, not everyone will follow you because you like their vines. Be sure to like the vines of viners who are very likely to follow back. Also, don’t like every Vine in existence.

Only like the vines that are relevant to the vines that you either post now or plan on posting in the future. That way, you’ll be growing a targeted audience of people who will appreciate your content instead of a big number of people not interested in what you post.

If you gave me the option of having 10,000 targeted followers or 100,000 non-targeted followers, I’ll choose the 10,000 targeted followers on any day and on any social network.

#2: Find a popular viner in your niche and follow that person’s followers. When you do this, be sure to only follow the followers who are very likely to follow you back. As you get more follow backs, you will get more engagement for your 6-second videos. As you gain an audience and continue posting Vines that people love, your followers will share your Vines more often, thus allowing you to reach a larger audience.

Similarly to before, you must keep your niche in mind. If you follow one of those #FollowBack accounts, you will get a lot of Vine followers. However, these people will care more about the size of their audiences than your Vines.

Building a targeted audience will help you succeed and get more Vine followers because now that you have people who are genuinely interested in your Vines, you’ll get more engagement for each of your Vines. That results in more visibility in Vine’s search engine.

#3: Post vines frequently.

The most popular people on Vine are posting at least one vine every day. By posting frequently, you are more likely to get engagement for your vines. As the engagement for your vines increase, more people will hear about you and decide to follow you. The best part is that if you consistently post vines every day, the people in your audience will know when to check in for a new 6-second video.

The people who take massive action are those who get rewarded. If you are posting inconsistently, you risk being forgotten about.

#4: Post quality vines.

There is a fine difference between a good 6-second video and a bad 6-second video. The vines that tend to get shared the most are funny vines. However, humor is not the only area of society that dominates Vine. You don’t need to have or show your sense of humor to dominate Vine. You can also create a quality Vine by displaying information or creating a list using index cards.

For some of my Vines where I provide social media advice, I’ll write each method on an index card and focus the camera on those index cards.

For other Vines, I talk in front of the camera and say a motivational thought. With just six seconds of my time, I am able to motivate thousands of people.

#5: Use your other social networks to spread the word.

By using the social networks you have already built a strong presence on to spread the word about your vines, you will attract more people from your existing audience to your 6-second vines. Your vines then get put in front of a larger audience that already appreciates what you do. Their added engagement will allow your vines to rank better on Vine’s search engine thus exposing your vine to more people.

Each time you post a new Vine, the social network will give you the option to share your Vine on Twitter. Enabling that option gives you the link which you can promptly share on Facebook, Pinterest, and others.

If you do enough Vines in a given week, you can combine all of the Vines together into one YouTube video. Within that YouTube video, show your Vine username at the bottom of the video so your viewers know where to get more of your Vines.

In Conclusion

Even though Vine’s 6-second videos make it very different from other social networks, the rules of getting more followers are similar. Getting the audience and interacting with that audience will lead to more followers and engagement on Vine.
