How to get a MILLION myspace friends [quickly and easily!]

1 million reasons 

What could you do with a million friends?
  1. Be popular. The old favourite. Your old school friends will be there with their piddly 200 - 500 friends. And there's you with A MILLION!!
  2. You know that once you get to such dizzy heights you'll have hundreds of friend requests every single day just because you're appering on so many people's profiles.
  3. You have a Squidoo lens you want to promote and you wish you had a super-popular profile to link to it on so loads of people would visit it.
  4. You have a business or online affiliate programs you want to promote and you need PEOPLE before you can make sales.
  5. Because google pay-per-click ads are too expensive for you to send traffic to your site and you want a free way to get unlimited traffic.
  6. You want to build up a HUGE network of friends and sell your profile on ebay for thousands of dollars. (150,000 friend profile was sold once for about $5000)
  7. You want to sell a LINK on ebay. People would pay to have their link (to their own site) on YOUR popular profile.
  8. You are a musician/actor/singer/author and you want to be able to send out event invitations and bulletins to loads of people.
  9. You "just want" a million friends.

1. The quickest way to 1 million friends 

Add friends, send comments, bulletins, messages, all on autopilot! COOL!

Well, Friend Blaster is the undisputed KING of the myspace friend adders.

  • You can BULK ADD hundreds of targeted friends automatically every single day (by location, age, male/female, sexual orientation, etc etc.)
  • You can SEND COMMENTS TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS automatically.
  • You can AUTO-BULLETIN to your friend list, and set bulletins to post on auto-pilot.
  • You can EXTRACT AND ADD all members of whatever myspace groups you choose.
  • Basically, if you're adding friends one by one and you know you'll NEVER get the number of friends you want, just get to bwcard.co.uk and download the software trial and get started. It really is amazing! I've used the software to promote niche websites to myspace users, and I know many people using it to promote their band, their books, and affiliate products. The video of the adder below lets you see how it works and what it can do. It's worth watching even if you don't intend to buy the software. Because this software is a GENIUS creation!

2. Using myspace buttons 

Do you have a website? Are you a Squidoo lensmaster? Are you a member of any other social networking sites?

Use the myspace buttons to let people find your profile and add you!

You can see the selection by scrolling right to the bottom of any myspace page and clicking Promote!

An example of a myspace button is this:

Find me on myspace You'll see how it links to my myspace profile.

This can increase your number of friends if you put your little myspace button in a few places.

DID YOU KNOW: you can place the button html code into your lensmaster 'About Me' right here on Squidoo? Go for it!

3. Joining Groups on myspace 

Joining groups on myspace is a good way to get found and added by people with similar interests.

Did you know there is a Squidoo group on myspace? It's called Success with Squidoo.

Join a couple of groups on myspace and people you have stuff in common with will see you. It's then your job to make the want to add you.
Success with Squidoo (myspace group)
Here is a link to the Squidoo group on myspace. Join up and start meeting other networking lensmasters.

4. Starting your own groups 

Starting your own group on myspace is a good way to get people passionate about a particular topic to NOTICE YOU on myspace.

As an example, I searched for a Little Shop of Horrors group on myspace so I could join. I joined the group and I also added the person who STARTED the group.

So start your own groups! Get your name and pic out there. Get people noticing you. It's all about networking.

Why are you on myspace? Go and start a group for other people who are on myspace for the same reason as you!

(*HINT* - The friend blaster software we've been talking about allows you to locate any myspace group and extract all the members of that group and Add Them All! Add thousands of targeted people. Send messages too. Perfect!)

5. Using your invite link 

Just like most things, not everyone you know will be a member of myspace. So whilst you're trying to get started by trying to find people to add... why not just annoy your friends until they join too?

This happened to me. I wasn't a member of myspace until recently. All my friends who WERE members would be on at me to join all the time! So I did.

So... get annoying!

And give them your invite link. If they join because of your invite link they're automatically added as your friend.

You can find your invite link by clicking 'Invite' at the top of any myspace page, and click 'Show my invite link' on the left of the page.

6. Friend Trains 

Ever heard of a friend train?

Until I joined MySpace, I hadn't.


The way a friend train works is this: You add yourself to the list, and you get featured at the top. People can add you as a friend, then add themself to the list. It's a really easy way of getting your profile link out there, getting your pic and link featured a few places, and getting more friend requests.

To add yourself to the friend train (to get more friends), go to www.coolprofile.info

Choo Choo! (Sorry. Couldn't resist..)

P.S. you'll need your friend ID for this. This is not the word you chose as your profile link. It's your ID number, like 1499490 or 848944 something.

7. Post comments on popular profiles 

You know you often come across people with tens of thousands of friends? And you look at the total number of friends and you say to yourself "Wow! Their profile must get seen thousands of times every day!"...?

The first thing you should do is add them as a friend. Then when they accept your friend request, post a comment on their profile saying something ALONG THE LINES OF 'Hey hey hey... thanks for adding me! You must think I'm a cool person ;-) Thanks for checking out my profile. Love, peace, frogs, Lewis xx'

And your comment will be seen by some of the thousands of people who view the profile each day.

And some of those people will add you as a friend, because hey - you're a fun looking person :)

There is a piece of software that will seek out popular profiles for you, but the company who has made it and is marketing it are not reliable, don't reply to emails, don't pay affiliates, and have sold products in the past and stopped updating them (so they no longer work). So I wouldn't recommend buying it. Just do it manually. It's easy enough. The company will only take your money and give you very little in return.

8. Find your 'add me' link 

Go to your profile and find the 'Add Me' link that people will click to add you to their friends list.

Right click on the link/button and select 'Copy Shortcut' (or 'Copy Link Location' if you're using firefox) and you will notice absolutely nothing happen.

You will now have a link (similar to the one below) copied to your clipboard.

http://collect.myspace.com/index.cfm?
fuseaction=invite.addfriend_verify&friendID
=124917119&MyToken=80f9783f-7120-4c82-b164-
5debd7ddc242


Now head over to TinyURL.com and paste the link into the box to 'make url tiny' and you will be given a small looking URL as a result.

Copy THAT to your clipboard and paste it into the bottom of your email signature, or in your bio, or your newsletter or to your email list, or anywhere that people will see it.

Mine is: www.tinyurl.com/2krp7y

Go ahead - click it. You're taken to the very page to add me as a friend!

So go ahead - Add me! :)


You can now make it even easier for people to add you as a friend. This will really help you speed up your race to one million myspace friends...

*COOL TIP* Unblock MySpace at Work or in School 

Annoying, isn't it?

If you're trying to make myspace work in your work or at school, the link below will make it work.

Let me explain... you can access myspace using what is called a PROXY. You don't need to know how this works, but just know that it does. Basically, a proxy is just a link that lets you bypass the block on myspace from the school or work computers.

The problem is... as soon as the admin (who blocked myspace there in the first place) finds the proxy being used, that too will be blocked. But then you can just use a new proxy.

The link below will take you to where all the new proxies are listed :-)

Have fun!
Unblock MySpace in School or Work
Find the newest proxies to unblock myspace at work or in school.

I just had a thought! 

If you want more friends on myspace, post your link here!

Just think..... if one million people all visit this page and they all add you... you're sorted :)
     

How to Get a Lot of Friends on MySpace

If you are a MySpace fan, your MySpace profile is one of the most important things in your social networking. You may have worked months to build up a friend list and have tons of comments. But have you ever visited a friend's profile, and saw that they had over 1000 more friends than you? Even more, they have 20 new comments every day? You probably wonder how they became so popular so quickly. Well it's much easier than you think.
Here are some suggestions that will help you make friends faster on myspace:

Steps

  1. Make a befriend me code or a s4s/ w4w this way any body can post your code in a bulletin board, so people on their friends list will add you. It's easy and fun.

    www.Facebook.com
  2. Browse people that lives in or near your cities, or just browse for people all over.
  3. Try adding some MySpace applications that enable you to add lots of people.
  4. Search for people that have similar interests as you... you are more likely to get accepted requests and less "do i know you's".
  5. Join groups and add the people that are in groups with you... you have something to talk about.
  6. Join the forums and make new friends on the forums. Be aware, if you say something offensive, you will be banned.
  7. Check out the many friend adder sites out there such as Adderdemon. You can find lots of other people also looking for more friends
  8. Another option is to use friend adder software such as Mybandpromoter to automate the process, it is not as personal but will boost your friend list very quickly.
