Twitter Introduces The New Follow Button

Posted by Lasoi Mukuru on May 31, 2011 in Social Media | View Comments

Twitter has just launched a new follow button that allows readers to connect with you on the network without having to leave your website. The new button only requires a single click for a connection to be made, thus making it easier for readers to follow you. This will definitely play a huge role in boosting your popularity on the network as well as your site’s readership.

Readers will largely benefit from this new function to follow up on their favorite websites as well as many other interesting pages they stumble upon. People who prefer to review Twitter profiles, before following them might not be very welcoming to this new feature. However, Twitter is quick to add that it will also be possible to see the profile and the latest Tweets of your preferred account by clicking the username next to the button.

So far, more than 50 websites have already added the new follow button to their site and I’m sure many others are on their to doing the same. The process is quite simple and won’t take you more than 20 minutes to configure your Twitter follow button. You can configure the new button here.

You can learn more about new follow button on Twitter’s official blog.

Will you be switching to the new button? Let me know in the comments below…
