“Why have my Twitter followers dropped?”

Because you’re boring.

Or offensive.

Or you were being followed by a bunch of spammers.

I would guess it’s most likely that last option.

Every once in a while Twitter will delete thousands of spammer accounts in one big go. These are the people who follow several thousand people in a matter of days, post repetitive messages, and send spam Direct Messages far and wide.

If your Twitter followers dropped noticeably overnight (and you’re pretty sure it’s not down to boring or offensive posts) then you can probably be certain Twitter has deleted tons of spammers.
