Automatic Twitter Unfollowing: What + How?

I’ve been asked quite a lot through this blog about how best to automatically unfollow people on Twitter.

• Let’s say you went wild in the beginning and followed tons of people for a very dumb reason..
• Or you automatically followed back everyone who followed you
• Or you even followed a bunch of people hoping they would follow you back

There are a few websites that will help you unfollow the “dead weights”, like FriendOrFollow and UnTweeps, and there’s always my favorite option of TweetAdder.

Don’t unfollow over maybe 500 people in one go, otherwise you might raise some red flags at Twitter HQ.

Software like TweetAdder can stagger your unfollowing and also help you get more Twitter followers. I recommend it [I use it myself].

If you’re on a budget though, or you’re not using twitter for marketing purposes, just go with one of the free websites above and don’t worry about the Tweet Adder tool.

TweetAdder is reserved for the Twitter Marketers!
