Hey Chris. I think maybe my words aren't doing me any favors on the topic. So I'm going to try and clarify my points. Following or not following needs to be justified IMO. I'm not saying follow back everyone. I don't follow back everyone. I only follow back those who are relevant to conversation or have interesting points for that account. However, if it's easy to see the similarities between both accounts, then why not follow back? If a potentially meaningful connection only merits a list, then I think we must be using Twitter for different purposes. I absolutely understand the DM issue. I just posted about immediate grounds for removal when an auto DM is sent for a follow. Anyways, glad to hear your opinion.

That's a great idea. Lists are completely underutilized and I'm part of the guilty party on that. Will definitely be working on some lists soon. Thanks!

I'd say 50% of the time your "SEO" rule is probably a good one to follow. However, I've made some great connections who have that title in their profile that aren't just about pushing content to me.

I'm not really into the numbers game. If they have a lot of followers, excellent. If they're following a lot or few, I don't really care. I tend to skip the profile stats (unless it says guru or expert, or something like that) and look at the content they are pushing out.

Hi Ileane. 

I'm not sure how MT impacts scores vs. RT. I feel compelled to mention that Klout is meaningless and faulty and I hope it goes away. That asid, I'll try to figure out the impact of MT on scores.

The ninja term is pretty humorous, kind of pokes fun at the "expert" and "guru" concept. Keep at it. Bring some humor into this digital world we're living in.

That's a great point. It's a huge challenge to have meaningful relationships once you get past a certain point. However, when managing brands, this is the factor that can set you apart as a great social manager. 

Thanks for reading and commenting, I really appreciate it.

Thanks for commenting Connor. It was an easy to decision to have Hootsuite lead this list. 
Take care,
