Take these FB/Twitter posts with the largest friggin grain of salt imaginable.

Companies actually hire people to post favorable reviews on FB and Twitter. In fact, if you visit fiverr dot com, you will see people running countless ads offering favorable FB/Twitter posts for five bucks. Search the web and you will see that lots of people want to purchase favorable posts and "friends."

Combine the data posted on FB/Twitter with stuff you read on the Internet; customer reviews for example, combined with the information the company web site and toss it all the hell out because you likely cannot trust what you read. You do not know who posted the comments or reviews, so they are not to be trusted.

Some Twitter and FB users pay for followers which means you simply cannot trust what you read. Some companies serve us crap and piles of steaming stuff the flys seem to like rather than good products and services, yet millions follow, like and love the company.

Those that hate the companymight be paid by the competetition to be less honest, so you can't necessisarily trust those sorts, either.

Do not automaticaqlly trust any Twitter or FB user because the favorable posts might be bull crap posted by "employees."

I must admit that poting a complaint about a company on Twitter or FB often gets resuls. These social sites are the last place companies want mad customers to post bad things.

Most of that is 100% true for sure. At least that is how I think too about all comments and reviews and I guess I could see that too on any or everything else. That is why word of mouth in person is the best.
 
Funny on twitter people saying to get more followers like 1000 over night do this or that and then you check them out and they only have 500 followers themself, what is that all about?

Could be they are simply finding some silly idea on the web and they post it as though they know, having never tried it before. Sometimes, a person with very few followers will flip services.

What I mean is they start a web site or they spam mailing lists and forums with offers that claim to be able to get you thousands of followers for ten or twenty dollars. Then they go to Fiverr or some other site and purchase a few thousand followers for five bucks and give the provider your information, pocketing the spread.

I know someone that does this with other services. He finds someone that needs something and is willing to pay $50.00-$100.00 or so for the service then my pal goes to sites like Fiverr and does a deal. He often clears more than two grand a month with a few mouse clicks.

I think you should earn followers rather than cheat.

Sounds good to me too. Was just wondering on that, not for me to do but why others are. It is mainly retweets from others.
 
Some of twitter might be chit chat or just plain wasting time but sometimes you can get some meaningfull info. And like some say the funny stuff make you laugh. Alot of great nascar info on there too.
