Try to make your followers happy, hopefully they will also make you smile. You can also follow bad twitter profiles (spammer, repetitively boring tweets, auto DM, rants, etc) as well just to proof your prejudices & rank/classify them as a personal research subject for future action. If people do not follow or DM or read my tweets it was truly their loss because they could solve many personal, life & business problems they face immediately by reading a ALL my profile, tweets, RT & starred tweets.

Why have 500,000 followers if you have to follow 500,000 twitterers. I mean if you aren't really following 500,000 followers (watching what they say) why the heck would you think that they are?? And does that not defeat the very point?? At some point isn't it just a way to make you feel good about your fake popularity? Just a thought.

Try it, it is safe. Great info indeed but I happen to know for sure that you are allowed to bulk unfollow 100 people each 24 hour period. Try it, it is safe.

You don't want to be bulk unfollowing as it is putting up a white flag saying I am a spammer please ban me. There must be a more efficient way to un follow those who just don't want to follow you back. Though it is frustrating, it is true.

Learned the hard way twice before i even knew my mistakes. Even without all that automated stuff and 2 suspensions of all my accounts; i built up over 16000+ total followers on 3 accounts in 4 months or less. Tweetlater has been my only automation of twitter, and i change my messages regularly; about every 3 to 5 days. I can concur with the good advice about follow/ unfollow.

That is what makes this application on the internet lose it's novelty. I URGE all human beings who are REALLY tweeting on Twitter, to stand out and express, represent and influence others to be a real person behind those tweets, and IF it's so necessary to MARKET yourself, then NETWORK with sincere presence. Twitter has the potential to positively infect a global generation with UNITY. I believe this may be a reason they would ban an account in the first place. I am not speaking for them but this is my impression after two plus years being on Twitter. It's more than a FACEBOOK platform which can become cluttered and overwhelming, but TWITTER is NOW, and if someone doesn't follow you outright doesn't mean they aren't watching. I am watching those that follow me, but maybe there is something I am waiting for them to say or do to warrant, the response back that attracted them to me. It's not always about following. There are so many other things one can do when someone tweets a really great tweet. Like placing a favorite STAR on that tweet, even tho you don't want to follow that Twitterer. I am ECSTATIC that there is no BULK unfollow to count the MAD uber-follow Twitter options out there. If you need to unfollow do it quietly and with any fanfare like when chose to follow. It is more about seeing what IS going on right now, and it can be about being in contact with people that you might never meet in every day life cause you don't like in L.A. or N.Y.C. It's an amazing little thing that has put my very thoughts and expression out there to the exact people I want to talk to or say things to, whether they be Celebrities, Family, Sexual Interests, Political Influences and complete strangers with similarities.

You could however configure your program to periodically unfollow a few people who don't follow back. Users could set limits (how many each time/day), percentages, and days to wait before unfollowing, etc. If you guys provided this, I would switch to your pro version in a heartbeat.

The only way to follow more people is to increase your account followers. But, what can you do in order to increase your followers if you are stuck at one of the Twitter thresholds without dumping a lot of people who aren't following you? Why don't you write up a follow on article with that as the focus? I would love to know your thoughts... The whole issue appears to be artificial.

I must admit that I too was looking for a tool like this, but will manually manage account now. Thanks for the advice!
