Reputation = value & trust
It grows through published articles, editorial reviews, accepted solutions and useful contributions. Follower count alone does not raise it.

What does not directly raise reputation?
Follower count, likes you give, ratings and shares do not directly add reputation. Reputation is designed to reflect demonstrated value, not the ability to collect quick engagement.
