This is the way:
Your timeline is your own creation there is no algorithm so you need to
Follow, Spout, Echo, Quote Spout & Follow back. You will find like minded followers this way and your timeline will grow. I have been here since early March have 1800+ followers and a AMAZING timeline.

It works!
The whole idea is about engagement. The more you engage the more diverse your timeline and you will find more follows and followers.
Tips:
1. Add a picture and a banner your choice
2. Create a interesting Bio
3. Spout, Quote Spout, Echo, say something to get our attention

Most of us who have been here for awhile want to get to know you before we follow back.
Personally, I have many new followers over the last few weeks that have:

No Banner, look at mine 1 guess what I am interested in.
So if you want to gain followers tell us about yourself. A few words can say a lot, don’t be shy.
If you find a interesting conversation jump right in and say what’s on your mind. It’s OK!

There has been a lot of talk about engagement lately, or lack of it. Thing is engagement is a two-way street, don’t expect someone you just followed to reach out. If you are brand new spout something first. If you want to lurk you are welcome to do just that we don’t mind. But don’t fall into the

trap of complaining about lack of engagement when you have really made no effort yourself
We are a friendly and welcoming bunch and we want you to participate, we want you to jump into conversations, we actually want to hear what you have to say. Lately to many have spouted about lack of engagement

and said the platform is not for them. When you check their account they have few follows, few followers and very few spouts, echo’s or quote’s, so no engagement on their part. So, we have come full circle back to that two-way street I mentioned, take a leap of faith join a conversation or

better yet start one yourself. There are many subjects floating around, Food, Gardening, Music, Politics, Pride. Use the Explore feature search key words and hash tags you will find subjects that interest you and you will have no problem with engagement.
This is the way!

I see the guitar on your bio. I followed lots of musicians, artists and writers on that other app (that is burning in hell right now). I know Spoutible is new but do you have any suggestions for follows?

Your welcome
I am paying it forward as many things in that spout were learned from those that came before me.
It is a tribute to them helping me find my way here.

Amen to all of what is said here. I’m no one special, no blue ck, but every time I spout something (new pictures or my opinion/added thoughts 2 a spout I find interesting, my followers grow a bit. And if someone spouts a thing which resonates w me I look 2 follow them, but ck bio/ other spouts 1st.

Thank you Susan,
I am trying to be helpful to all our new Spouters in much the same way I was helped. I have grown my following organically. I have been more selective about follow backs as my timeline grows. The problem with like minded people is we sometimes all spout/echo the same thing.
