Unfollowers.Me – A Twitter Tracking App With A Twist
If you don’t have a Twitter account, you can freely skip this, but we believe that this is highly unlikely. So, if you are not in that small percentage of non-tweeters, you may proceed. We all know that followers are important. To know how many you have, and how many you follow is an information easily accessible. But to see who is following you and if you aren’t following them and vice versa, you can use Unfollowers.Me.
Having And Being Unfollower
Unfollowers.Me is a simple app that tracks your unfollowers. After connecting your Twitter account, you will be able to see several statistics for your profile. There are the ususal “who are you following” and “who is following you” options, but things get interesting with Inactive and Fake following/followers. Although it only assumes whichusers might be , it is indicative and useful as it lets you who is inactive and slipped of the Twitter bandwagon.
There are also statistics for mutual following and fans, or in other words, followers that you don’t follow. For me personally, statistics for not following back are in the “duh!” category, because majority of those in my case are celebrities, and I surely don’t expect Nathan Fillion to follow me back. However, for someone who is less starstruck than me, this can be very useful.
Useful Buttons
One of the more interesting options is “Force user to unfollow you” button, and at first it looks a bit redundant. Even if you force someone to unfollow you, how it will stop them from following you again? It won’t, but you still have the “Block” button. However, this is the best way to get rid of unwanted spam-bots and inactive accounts, and bring your number of followers to a more realistic estimate.
Another useful thing is scheduling a tweet. Here you can schedule a tweet and define the time of its posting. If you check the little box for tracking a tweet, it will generate a report of how many followers you gained or lost after you made that particular tweet. If you have a professional account, this could be very useful to assess your audience or clientele.
Even if you don’t connect your Twitter account, you can check who is following who here, who’s not following you back here and who aren’t you following back here. It will automatically refresh your statistics every 24 hours, but if you want it more frequently or if you have more than one Twitter account, you can buy premium membership.
Unfollowers.Me is an interesting app that allows you to build better quality Twitter community. Clear and concise, there is no room for confusion. So, it is the beginning of a new year and soon it will be time for spring cleaning, so why not start early?
