Scraping Twitter followers !! How?

[NeVeREire]

I need to scrape followers of different accounts.

Is Twitter Attacks Pro the only tool out there ?

Are there any free options ?

Are there any other paid options apart from Twitter Attacks pro ?

What are you trying to do? Just scrape followers of accounts on a one off? Regularly?

For what do you want to do this for?

I suggest to use Twitter API (patiently )

It might be needed for 10 accounts, not all the time.. maybe once a month. but not sure why it matters ?

various options exist for all price ranges. If you want to run a scrape once a month, then not do anything else, you don't need a solution that allows you to run unlimited accounts 24x7 performing all twitter functions. The more simpler your usecase the more likely you might be able to find something free (which you mentioned so assumed was preferred) although you may have to do some basic coding to pipe together the libraries that might exist

unlikely to be an option any more, now that you have to request permission from twitter with a detailed report or why you want access what you intended to do and they review it manually.

Anyone know if it's possible to scrape content based on certain keywords in tweets? how can i customize it to just scrape a list of keywords for people i follow?

Thanks!

If you mean only scrape tweet text bodies if the tweet contains a keyword, then just use a filter with your scrape tweet text scraper
