Twitter- Do You Just Unfollow

Just a brush up on twitter following. You know it's nice to follow & be followed. Lot of the time people want someone to follow but, don't do the common courtesy of following back.

I guess there is many reasons for not following back. That doesn't mean you have to take up your valuable following ratio to let that person hold you back. Just Unfollow is a magical little twitter masterpiece.

Drop the folks that hold you back from gaining real followers, so you can grow on twitter. You should certainly give new people you follow a chance to follow you back, but after a couple of weeks and they don't want to play nice, say good bye.

While your unfollowing and need someone to follow you back, stop by late tonight or on Tuesday to the twitter hop and link up with @Nightowlmama@lifesandcastle we will follow you.

UPDATE:

Tricia pointed out:

IF your not following back because your concerned about not being able to see your twitter friends simply start a list of your favorite tweeters and when you want to see what they are up to click on the list and all their tweets will be in one stream for you to read.

having more followers increases your reach to the public . IF your a blogger the more twitter friends you have the more klout you'll gain in your community.

Absolutly and starting lists is a great way to keep all your twitter friends in one spot too.

Those that follow to just unfollow is so sad.

I hate when spammers follow me....I always follow someone back that is a real live person who has the same interests in me, but I have noticed that way too many times I magically have 5 new followers and they're obviously spammers.

Love having a HUGE stream, but I know tonnes of tweets get lost in my busy feed.
