Is it wrong to buy followers?

Many do it, but I think that it is much better when you can get followers on your own instead of buying them.

In a way it is wrong but like angie said many do it so I guess it is alright.

It can be viewed multiple different ways. Yes it can seem down right dirty because you are not bringing in real people through your own efforts, but I personally believe it is perfectly OK to do so. It can be very useful simply as a social proof concept. If a user sees a page with some Likes, the user is more likely to feel confident that the page has some value, and more likely to Like it as well. So, on a large basis, for a new site or a new FB page, it can be useful for a jump-start. It really does suck to post on your wall about some update every day and have absolutely no one to see or respond to it.

No it's not wrong.
If you just start a twitter with 0 followers, it will be a pain to grow it.

Reasons why someone should buy followers

Increased followers count, which helps new people follow him back - Won't a guy with 50K+ Followers be more cool than a guy with 10?
Increased Follower/Following ratio. This will help you organic search by following people, if you just started you can't follow a lot of people per day.
There are some twitter lists, and when you get more followers you get up on those lists (For example I am on the top 50 Greek twitter profiles by most followers).

Some people even use it to impersonate/fake some company or something and make the profile look "legit", which is another story so guys you should be careful. I have been scammed once in the past because of a known Professional gaming team which someone impersonated on Twitter with 100K+ Followers.

Oh one more tip, whenever someone advertises "real followers" but he is giving a fixed count , for example "100K" "50K" "10K" "1K" it means that either they use addmefast(Do you even use your REAL profile over there? Because I don't....) or they offer fake followers.

You can get real followers but think about it, if someone advertises your twitter so people will follow you, how would he know before hand how many followers will arrive? Not possible.

EDIT: Just noticed this was a bumped thread from 2013. Anyway hope this was some good information.

No, it's not wrong to buy followers or paid the followers to visit your site and like the page.

Anyone at first can think that, it costs money and not giving actual buyers or potential customers, so there is a less chance to get conversion.

But let me give a chance to explain you why it is worthy?

Suppose you have A facebook Id and you create a page with "Few likes" to promote your business and you determine that you shouldn't pay visitors to like the page. Instead you focus on your products and give free trial offer. Does it actually work?

I think people will visit on those pages which have many followers and likes rather than less likes and less numbers of followers.

Actually, my advice for you if you afford to expense come cost than earn some visitors by paying option and also focus on Marketing strategies.

But in the long run, you don't need to go with this paying option.

Why is it wrong? It helps you get noticed among the thousands of other users. You can grow your Twitter account organically once you got a good following going.

See bought followers as a little boost to your growth.

It is not wrong, however, the conversion rate is really low. You buy a follower, he is not interested in your gaming product, what's the point in having him as a follower. Furthermore, the sellers might also sell you bot followers. Bot followers are computer programs, they are just numbers.
I think you will find this video interesting. This explains why buying followers is not a very good idea.

If there is a good use for having a big number of followers then I guess buying followers is just fine. But if there is no concrete use for that, why buy followers? Those numbers may just be mere numbers that do not move. In other words, followers are people who follow you which means they will be reading your posts and probably react as well. But if they are mere numbers then there’s no use since they wouldn’t even read your posts.
