Remove Inactive Twitter Accounts In 3 Easy Steps
One effective way to grow your Twitter followers is to follow others.
However, to get significant engagements, you should follow active users on Twitter. Otherwise, they will be just a ‘number’ on your profile.
According to the Wall Street Journal reports, approximately 44% of people on Twitter have never sent a tweet.
Inactive accounts do not engage on Twitter anymore, and even they do not retweet your tweets.
Because of that, following an inactive user on Twitter, expands your Twitter following/followers ratio for no reason.
Circleboom Twitter is a Twitter Management Tool to clean up your Twitter account by finding those accounts which are not following back, spammer, fake, talkative, and inactive.
If someone is not tweeting for more than 30 days, Circleboom marks them as inactive accounts so you may take consider unfollowing them.
Why Can’t I Remove Followers on Twitter?
There can be several reasons why you may not be able to remove followers on Twitter:
- You don’t have permission to remove followers: If you are not the owner of the Twitter account, you may not have the permission to remove followers. Only the owner of the account or someone with administrative access can remove followers.
- Technical issues: Sometimes, Twitter may experience technical issues that can prevent you from removing followers. If you encounter an error message while trying to remove followers, it’s possible that the issue is temporary and may be resolved by trying again later.
- The follower has protected their account: If a follower has protected their Twitter account, you won’t be able to remove them from your follower list unless they decide to stop following you.
- You have reached the follow limit: Twitter has limits on the number of accounts you can follow, and if you have reached this limit, you won’t be able to remove followers until you unfollow some accounts.
If you are still unable to remove followers on Twitter and none of the above reasons apply, you may want to contact Twitter support for assistance.

What are the advantages of removing inactive Twitter accounts?
Removing inactive Twitter followers can have several advantages, including:
- Improved engagement rate: When you have a lot of inactive followers, your engagement rate can be negatively affected. By removing inactive followers, you can improve your engagement rate by ensuring that your followers are genuinely interested in your content and more likely to engage with it.
- Improved Twitter analytics: Inactive followers can skew your Twitter analytics by artificially inflating your follower count. By removing inactive followers, you can get a more accurate picture of your audience and track your Twitter performance more effectively.
