The Online Dating Insider had a good post about something I have heard of happening but hadn't really followed up on it before. Buying and selling of friends and fans on Facebook, and followers on Twitter. One such website which offers this service is uSocial.
For the low price of $87 you can have 1,000 twitter followers in 7 days or less. If that is not enough you can get up to 100,000 followers for only $3,479 in 365 days.
If Twitter is not your thing you can always opt to buy Facebook Fans or Friends. As of writing this story, buying Facebook Friends was temporarily unavailable but 1,000 fans of a Facebook page only cost $197. 10,000 fans comes in at $1167.30
Why does someone need to buy followers or fans? It is for marketing purposes and getting more traffic to your website. The more fans a page has, or followers your tweets get, the more supposed creditability you or your business has and the more people you can promote your products too. You can also buy votes from uSocial as well, to get your articles on the front page of Digg, del.icio.us and Propeller. I am sure Facebook, Twitter and Digg all hate these type of advertising services, as it undermines the value of what they are trying to offer.
Like it or not, the internet revolves around advertising. That said, there is the ethical way to advertise and then there is the other way. I think uSocial went the other way, therefore I would never recommend someone to use a service like this.
