Another great way to gain exposure and followers is to contribute to other boards. Search for popular groups and spend time developing a relationship with the board owner. When you have established a solid relationship, then ask them to invite you to the board.

Make sure to follow others relevant to your niche. I do follow people with the same interest, but only a fraction of them will follow you back. Give it a couple of days and go ahead and unfollow those who did not follow back. Continue to repeat the process.
