Building links to a Twitter/social account

[Alex-Harford]

I've seen plenty of articles about using Twitter to build links, but how about building links to a Twitter account?

Does registering on sites and directories like Topsy, Twellow and Klout help? We can link to Twitter accounts on our own websites and other social profiles, and use it as our link on blog comments etc, but is there anywhere else specific?

Thanks - I've seen that - that's one of the articles I meant I have seen; it's more about using Twitter to build links to YOUR OWN sites. I know the above helps, but I wanted to know if there was any specific advice about building links DIRECTLY TO Twitter accounts.

Well each of those sites links to your twitter as well so its a nice two-for-one.

But add you twitter link to author bylines (guest blog posts). Whenever you are mentioned online, ask for a link to your twitter (think interviews).

When you say "link to twitter account... from somewhere specific", I think twitter directories.
