So, a couple of days ago Harleena Singh of Aha!Now replied me, after I asked her for a follow back, that it was rude to do so. I was stunned and honestly, I hadn't heard that before. Harleena is a social media expert and so I said to myself, if she says so then there has to be truth in it.
I set out to find out why and my search led me here: Twitter Etiquette On Inc.com. The thing I realized is, asking for a follow back from someone who will not follow you back because you do not share anything in common doesn't go down well with a lot of people. Nevertheless, different people are on Twitter for different reasons and it might be okay for someone who's on it just to make friends to ask for a follow back from someone he or she would like to be friends with. However, for people whose businesses and careers are based on Twitter, it probably isn't a good idea to ask for a follow back.
