The value and trusthworthiness of Klout has been the subject of much debate. Sure, you can game the system and increase your score by having no life and engaging 24/7 in the activities recommended below, but the value of Klout is how it “categorizes” you. Are you an expert on marketing? Klout better know it! I am an expert on Waldo, Attorneys and Marketing! See?? Most realize that Klout is heavily dependent upon your Twittering, so Tweet away my friends! Here’s a few suggestions taken from the awesome author, Social Media Amplified:
1) Put all of your focus on Twitter. Despite the fact that they claim to look at other networks, the vast majority of any Klout score is just Twitter. Ignore everything else.
2) Auto-follow everyone. It doesn’t make a difference who they are, just jack your followers up as high as you can.
3) Stop producing original content. Klout doesn’t care where content comes from, only that people retweet you. Time spent writing is time that could be spent tweeting. You don’t get bonus points for being original in Klout.
4) Take part in every Twitter chat you can. There are tons of chats which happen every week on Twitter. Take part in all of them. Lots of retweeting going on with these events.
5) Pump out lots of inspirational quotes. People eat this shit up. These are the Successories posters of Twitter.
6) Troll Reddit or Digg for links. Just find linkbait from other sources and tweet that. Remember, the title matters more than the actual content for getting retweets.
7) Do not go on vacation. Being away from Twitter for even a few days will result in your “influence” going down.
In short, become a Twitterholic and your Klout Score is likely to soar! Then what?
