Unfollowing the people who don't follow you back? OK from a marketing perspective.

Unfollowing spammers, trouble makers or alike? Fine.

But unfollowing the other active tweeps ... Nope, not good for your marketing. Let's analyze your reasons for unfollowing them and find better solutions.

Adrian,

Thanks for replying to my comment here and there! ;)

I have over >5000 followers, so you are right about the old limit. Thanks for addressing that.

I have "figured out" the 10% more follow by myself! ;) I know that Twitter will never do a formal statement about this. I am still said that they have put this limit in place, for us serious users of their service. I think that Twitter will always be my favorite social media tool / platform, but I wonder why they don't support their true users.

I have tested Crowdfire in the past. I have to give it another try.

Maybe I should apply for your Twitter promotion service for my new blog and site about tea, new media, covering my self-publishing journey? I have to published some more posts first... ;)

Have a great day!

All the Best,

Martin

Adrian,

Adrian:

Thanks for your response. I have an issue with Twitter follow limit rule, set at 2000 and then you have to have at least 10% more followers than you follow. I have to start unfollow some of the inactive followers and then see what to do next.

Do you have a favorite Twitter tool for this action?

P.S. I saw your message on LinkedIn. I will answer to it during the day! ;)

Hi Martin. I replied on my blog. Here's a recap of my reply:

1) 2000 is actually 5000

2) 10% isn't a formal percentage provided by Twitter

3) Crowdfire

Have a great day!

Take your time :) I replied. The PS was added later and that's why it wasn't sent by email - so it's better to read the final version from the blog. In the first instance I assumed that you know the info from the PS but then I realized that I may be wrong and I added the tip from PS :)

Adrian: I don't unfollow my followers on Twitter. I, @Lyceum want to follow more tweeps, but I have reached the Twitter follow limit again. Do you have any advise regarding this issue?
