Good, Jan - but I might take issue with #4 - the number of your followers speak. Maybe - if they're quality followers that are engaged in your tweets. Lots of spammers & weirdos follow those that auto-follow back without checking who it is that's following them. When I see large numbers - and the person isn't famous in their niche - I'm put on immediate alert: it works against them. If they have a significantly lower number of follows than followers, I'm going to assume they're into gaining traffic & links any way they can get 'em - a sure sign something's up. Following a huge number is even more of a red flag to me - I'm wondering what sort of junk I'll find on their twitter home page - if they just auto-everything for links, their own photo may be right above drug & porn tweets. (The last is the important one for my own page - above all I don't want weirdos tweeting their crap on my page for everyone to see.) Lists are good for organizing which tweets you want to check, but others will just see the whole home page - warts & all.
