If you follow 950 peoples a day, There is a chance that 250-300 people will follow you back as a sign of courtesy (or) because they want to be connected with you and we want this from him.
Bypass 2000 follower limit of twitter:

Use tools like socialbro.com or followers.me to unfollow those peoples who does not follow you back.

Therefore regularly unfollowe the non-followers or those which does not show any activity on your profile, by this you will not only keep it clutter free but can also attract new twitter followers to follow you.

Thanks to new followers:
We often noticed that greeting new followers through a welcome can increases the chances of interaction.
Note: With free tools like unfollowers.com and many others you can send an automatic welcome tweet for new followers. But I do not recommend this for your new follower I advise you to post a fresh tweet instead of automated message to your follower, because no ones likes to be greeted by an automated message. But it good than nothing.
Use twitter Analytics:
Regularly visite
twitter analytics for recognizing which type of tweets receives greater interaction by your followers. Therefore you will post more such content so that you can attract new followers.

Hashtags are the keywords, most peoples search for hashtags to get similar tweets. You can also use hashtags to reach more audience. Hashtags allow the tweet to reach audience which is not in your follower list.
Some hash tags are #blogger #paknews #bloggingtips #cokestudio8 #election2013.
