Looking at some gigs on fiverr that offer to retweet 1-3 of your tweets and claim to have 100,000 followers. I don't mind risking the 5 bucks to see if I can get any results, but just wondering if you guys think it's safe to do it? Wasn't sure if there could be any risk to my Twitter account just by someone retweeting my tweet. I also found gigs that offer to promote your site on blogs,email blast, etc. ( would be my squeeze page) and wondering if you guys have tried any of those to what results? The ones I'm looking at have very high ratings on fiverr. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Generally you get what you pay for and most of those accounts with large numbers are loaded with fake followers. With that said, it's only $5 to play around a bit and see what happens. I would be cautious paying for direct traffic on Fiverr because it will be crap, and could hurt your SEO because of the high bounce rate. But I see no problem with paying for a tweet. I know of no way that could hurt your account. Don't quote me on that :-)

My honest feeling is that nothing much will come from it, but I'd also just give it a go and see. You might find some gems.
