I will say this. On Sept 26 I lost 26,000 total followers (around 1k per account). Suddenly they just disappeared. I am sure the followers I lost were fake, and not real people. After checking bhf and seeing nobody else report this error, I assumed it was not official twitter cleaning my accounts, but instead a purge of fake accounts (each of my accounts had 2k+ fake followers each).
So maybe we are experiencing the same thing...It is important to keep daily count of your total followers.

Can you explain why it's so important? I mean of course, it's a good idea to check 1-2 accounts statistics from time to time. So you know you are gaining and your scraped lists are not full of bots and inactive people. But why it's important to track the number of all your followers every single day? How it's helping you earn more money? To be honest, I don't even know how many followers I have. Really. As long as my earnings are ok, I don't care at all. Well, after this post, because of pure curiosity, I will go to check what I have at the moment

I have a script that daily counts the total number of followers I have, so it is an easy task for me. Why to do it? So you can quickly spot if twitter purges your account of followers (as was very useful for me). Also to calculate the daily rate of growth (I know the percentage rate of increase I receive daily).
If I suddenly start losing followers it is important to know so I can tweak some settings, change some accounts to scrape from, etc...
It's just how it works for you, I like to be in control of every aspect of my campaign and use data/analytics for stronger growth.

i can't reply in private
i take a look in your accounts and i think
YOU should add more fake followers for every account more followers more engagement
tweet with motivational quotes with picture
and change the account who you scrape their followers and try different account some time you find inactive followers in big accounts

Hey JohnThe,
I lost 7K on 1 acct and 3K on 2 other accts; just instantly on Fri night around midnight-ish Sep 25/26. I have lots of other accts that were unaffected by this, and these 3 accts were seeded with purchased followers from back in Jun 2015. I contacted the seller (who is kinda known) and directly asked him if he had a bunch of accounts banned - which is what I think happened and he did not deny or confirm that, but he said something like this happens 1-2 times per year when twitter does an update - I am not sure I totally buy that.. I think he lost accts.
I assume that folks who sell TW followers own/control like 50-100K accts and can promptly follow any clients that pay in relatively large amounts. Anyone else have better insight into how these guys operate who sell followers?
Best,
Shawn

I am not sure what niche you are in, but don't you want to try new ways to monetize those accounts? I mean, $14.50 seems rather low when I think you can be pulling in $50+, but yeah it all depends on your niche I guess. Anyways, thanks for good read and good luck

Update
Total gained followers for today: n/a
Total followers: 469 800
AdSense earnings for yesterday: 12.10
Website Unique Visitors for yesterday:2500
This few days the earning are terrible, I don't know if my niche is influenced by seasons ( like beginning of school, etc. ) but I am not gonna sit there and do noting about it.
I have few logical theories/reasons why my earnings are slowly drooping:
1. I don't have enough fresh followers to have a bigger visitor count.
2. The old returning visitors already know my ads placement are use to them and don't even notice them any more.
The first reason explains my drop in visitors count and the second one explains why I have slowly drooping earnings. The solution for bout of my problem is to figure out how to get a bigger follow back ratio and experimenting with ad placement and size.
I already started experimenting from yesterday with following users that are not directly connected to my niche but are close and I have more strict following filters. Its early to day, but so far it looks promising. For the ad placement and size I will experiment when I'll be back from Germany.

hey wiz! not sure if you have answered these questions already but I have 4:
1. how many accounts are your 470k followers spread out among?
2. What's the average follower count per account?
3. did you start each one from zero or did you buy accounts with followers already attached?
4. what tools are you using to automate this process?
thanks! great journey thread

Hi man great journey!
Two questions:
1. Are you writing your own content or do you use duplicated? I want to use adsense but since most of my articles are duplicated I am scared of getting banned..
2. Are you redirecting all of your accounts to one website? If so, are all of your accounts in the same niche?
Cheers.

Hi wizard04
I have a question about follow like.
You said that you have 2 instances of FL working at the same time.
The first with following,unfollowing and engagement tweets.
The second with money tweets.
Right?
If Im not wrong, you use the same accounts, so did you created 2 different projects using the same accounts right?
I tested loading the same project in 2 different instances but at the end the data is shared and If I put both them to tweet, the second overwrite the first.
So I created 2 projects with the same accounts loaded and opened in different instances and it seems to work fine.
Is it the way you are using FL?
Just want to be sure.
Thanks
Damian

My CTR is 0.5% or less. It use to be near 1% but its slowly drooping becouse of the same visitors.
Everything is answered in the journey.
1. 43 acc
2. Very low, I don't want to count anymore.
3. from 0 but i added fake followers to remove the limit.
4. FL
1. I am not writing my own contend but I do change it a little bit. My adsense is still fine.
2. All of my accounts are in the same niche and one website.
The first is only for following and unfollowing and second one is for engagements and money tweets.
Nope my are fine, I am trying to get them back. I successfully unbanned one, now I am going for the second one.

Update
Total gained followers for today: n/a
Total followers: n/a
AdSense earnings for yesterday: 10.30
Website Unique Visitors for yesterday:2450
I have a problem with my VPS, the not is constantly abused and my site often needs lot of time to load. This is happening a lot lately ( this two weeks ) and I think is one of the reasons for my bad month.
Still I am hoping when I implement few things I will see a change, I am really hoping my earnings will stabilize by the end of the month.

1. True, but I am not sure if twitter follow the redirects. Also this is one of the reasons why I don't want to have more then 100 acc on this one niche, this is why I am expanding.
2. There is no automation tool that can replace what I do. I don't just scrape contend, I pick the good ones and edit it little bit, also finding photos that are relevant for the same article and also editing them, etc.
3. I don't change anything, but I am planning to change the email pass and twitter pass on the next ones.
4. I am an network engineer and yes I am still learning more stuff to take exams for more certificates to have under my belt. But I don't think this will be my lifetime carrier, I see my self doing bigger things, but I need starting capital to do so.
