What is unique about this? There are thousands of services online that offer the same. What makes your site any better?

Moreover, this is not at all relevant to the HackerNews community.

If you can share valuable insights as to why this is a good or bad thing for businesses to do, then that might be more useful.

A lot of people on HN are starting companies and trying to establish themselves with social media(twitter, facebook, etc.). This gives them the jumpstart they need to get their pages and handles running.

People don't like to follow a handle or like a page that has very few likes. Getting those first 1000 followers or 500 likes makes a huge difference in the amount of people who actually end up hitting "follow" or "like"

What I don't really like to follow are people or brands with less than 10 posts. I absolutely hate the ones with zero posts :)
