Today I want to see with you how we can know who is following you and who is not following you on Instagram and Twitter. We are also going to see what it is for and what strategies we can apply when we know who they are. Through various tools, we can have a lot of information from these 3 social networks that they do not simply give you.

Why is it important to know who is following me or not?

There are many reasons why you would like to know who is not following you on  Instagram or Twitter or any other social network. One of them may be to do a study of your community.

It is interesting to know what type of profiles follow you or unfollow you to review your actions on these social networks and study if you are reaching the public that interests you.

Another reason may be to know what type of content works best. Some contents or publications work better than others, and knowing this will allow you to optimize your strategy based on the response that users have after your publications.

It may also be that you are carrying out a general growth strategy in social networks. To see if your goals are met, you will be interested in knowing who is following you and taking action.

If you have held an event, you will be able to measure the impact by observing how many people have started following you as a result of said event. For other types of strategies and monitoring, you can also consider unfollowing some accounts that do not follow you back.

Why am I being unfollowed on Instagram or Twitter?

There can be two main reasons why they stop following you on Instagram or Twitter or other social networks like Google +.

• The first one is because they are not interested in your content, or they have stopped liking your posts. See how to make cool posts with these examples.
• The second reason why they can stop following you is that they are carrying out Follow-Unfollow actions.

A technique widely used in social networks to “inflate” the number of followers of an account is to do Follows – Unfollows. This consists of users following you and then unfollowing you if you don’t follow them back, or worse yet when they see that you’ve already followed them.

Can I know who does not follow me on other social networks?

There are social networks like Facebook where it is impossible to know who does not follow you. Many tools on the internet may seem to work, but today there are no tools for this social network.

There was an online tool for Facebook called Lagsoft.biz that provided a lot of data. It allowed you to see who had stopped following you or even know what photos each person had seen within your profile. Today, and after Facebook updates, it is not available. The same goes for Social.

When entering these tools, at least today, a warning pops up saying that Facebook is changing and that they must adapt to that change; and for this reason, it is no longer operational.

Online solutions to know who does not follow me on Instagram

Until recently, there were many tools to find out who does not follow me on Instagram. However, since the end of 2016, Instagram made a major change to its API that made these third-party services stop working. Now many of these services are mobile applications. However, there are still a couple of tools for it.

– Nomesigue.com

It is one of the few websites that allows you to identify those people who have unfollowed you on Instagram without having to resort to a mobile application.

The interface is very intuitive, as it organizes all the information in a side menu:

• Accounts you follow but haven’t been followed back
• Followers of your Instagram profile that you do not follow
• Mutual follow-ups
• Users who used to follow you but no longer do
• New Instagram accounts to follow
• A list of accounts that follow you
• The profiles you follow
• white list of allowed
• Blacklist 

These last two features are very useful when it comes to optimizing your time since they will allow you to archive Instagram accounts and thus avoid accidental follows and unfollows. In the white list of allowed we will add people that we do not want to unfollow on Instagram, usually celebrities, referents, and close friends. In this way, we will avoid unfollowing them for any reason.

The blacklist is usually used to include those accounts that we have stopped following for some reason and we do not want to accidentally follow them again in the future. In this way, the tool marks those users when you go to look for new profiles to follow.

– Fastunfollow

This tool is completely automatic and, although it does not allow me to see who does not follow me on Instagram, after connecting with my account I can start removing those profiles that have unfollowed me on Instagram simply by clicking on “Start”. To do this, it is necessary to activate the “Mutual” box, since otherwise, it would stop following indiscriminately. The tool has a limit of 200 profiles per day.

You can add profiles to a white list and thus you will never stop following them 

Mobile applications to know who does not follow me on Instagram

In the mobile field, the offer of applications is much broader, having several options for each operating system. The good thing about using apps to see who doesn’t follow you on Instagram is that you can check all the information from your smartphone at any time.

SocialBro is now called Audiense. This tool will allow you to manage several accounts, have segmented audiences or target audiences and detect people with influence in your sector to get to know their community and connect with them.

If you try to “hook” them back, you must apply community management strategies  and strive to provide them with some added value, so that they finally decide to follow your publication’s following strategies

You can, for example, interact with them, like their content, comment on their posts, or even follow them if you haven’t previously.
