How to know who is not following me on social media
Does the following situation sound familiar? You upload a new publication on your social networks, you check that a few users are interested in your content and they like it. They follow you and you feel indebted to them so you also follow them on their social media accounts.
However, after a few days you realize that these users have stopped following you without an explanation. What happened? Calm down, because we are going to see it in great detail below. Why some don’t follow me on social media.
⚡️ LET’S DISCOVER!
Why do they follow me and then stop suddenly?
There are those that practice following and immediately unfollowing as a mean of accumulating followers.
But, why are there others that just stop following in general? In addition to the following/unfollowing scenario, there are other reasons why users might stop following you:
- They are no longer interested in your account: they may have been attracted to your accounts at first, with your Twitter, Instagram or Facebook, because of something you shared or that appealed to them. But as often happens in the vast majority of cases, they soon discover that your account doesn’t interest them as much as they thought.
- They stop following you if you don’t return the follow: yes, you heard correctly. Many users follow you on the premise that you will also follow them, therefore, if you have not done so, they will stop following you. Welcome to ego 2.0!
- They are simply practicing Follow-Unfollow: as I mentioned before, strange as it may seem, these types of users only want to “inflate” their number of fans. So as soon as they see that you have followed them, they will stop following you. It’s cold, isn’t it? For this reason, this type of practice is not a prefered method.
