Clean And Grow Your Twitter Account

TwitterHow is your Twitter account doing? Did you know that twitter is like a bed of flowers? You need to get rid of the weed and keep your followers and your followings tidy. And there is a benefit as well, but you need a tool that can do the dirty work for you.

How can you grow your followers by getting rid of your followings?
I have been following a lot of interesting people at @frodeheimen and @hostbeetle. I was following twice as many as I had followers. I decided to stop listening to you today unless you are listening to me so I removed all the people I am following, who aren’t following me back. And to be a good friend I followed all those who follow me.

When you remove weed, sprouts grow up
I had 777 followers before my cleansing, I was following 1750 people. As I was removing those that don’t follow me back, I noticed that a lot of them probably have a warning when people unfollow you on twitter, because I had 814 followers when I was finished. I got 37 new followers just by cleaning them out and they keep coming back as I am writing this. Those that now are deciding to follow you are the sprouts you should cherish.

But how can you do this in Twitter you ask?
You can’t, you need to use a tool and I want to recommend http://www.buzzom.com/ a great tool to administer you followers and those that you follow. You can unfollow those that don’t follow you back if you like. I would recommend it. You can “lock” those you follow that you want to keep following.

BuzzcomI have tested different tools and some remove people you actually are following Buzzom.com is doing the job good and it did not mess up. Two thumbs up.

@frodeheimen got 37 new followers
@hostbeetle got about 50 new followers

And I am now following everybody that follows me, and there’s the key to good communication, both need to listen to each other.

Good luck tweeting.
