Many people on the platform can follow random accounts for personal reasons. Similarly, many users want more followers for different reasons. However, it doesn\u2019t mean every Twitter follower vs following is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should remove followers if their posts are irrelevant or annoying. You should also remove them to declutter your timeline if they post too frequently. In addition, you can delete unwanted accounts to make it easier to manage your account. These could be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/inactive-twitter-followers-finding-and-removing-inert-users\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inactive accounts<\/a> that have no benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inactive accounts don\u2019t interact with posts or publish any posts. They only affect your account\u2019s credibility and weaken your follower ratio. Another reason to remove X accounts is to remove fake followers. Fake accounts only increase your follower count; they are not beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These users could be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/spam-on-twitter-everything-about-x-platform-manipulation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">spammy X accounts<\/a>, silent users, and X bots. They mostly stalk other users, publish confusing or duplicate posts, and use stock profile images. You also need to delete offensive or abusive X accounts. Everyone has different reasons for joining the X, aka Twitter platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, every user has different perspectives, ideas, and opinions. So, don\u2019t let coming across an offensive or abusive post surprise you. Everyone can post whatever content moves their audience. However, you can avoid such posts by deleting the post owner\u2019s account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"571\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/noe-baeten-vFgcY9ZSGbo-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"A red padlock with a heart icon on it.\" class=\"wp-image-4089\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_You_Delete_a_Follower_on_Twitter\"><\/span><strong>How Do You Delete a Follower on Twitter?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can delete an X follower by removing or blocking them. You must have identified a reason for deleting an unwanted X account following you. However, the main concern is the methods used to achieve it. Let\u2019s explore the three main methods so you can pick your preferred option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_The_Removal_Method\"><\/span><strong>1. The Removal Method<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a default remove button on Twitter, aka X, to eliminate accounts from your<strong> <\/strong>list of followers. This feature allows you to <a href=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/how-to-remove-followers-on-twitter-improve-follower-ratio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">remove your X followers<\/a> without blocking them from accessing your profile. This means they can follow you whenever they want after removing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the remove feature is only available on the X website. You\u2019ll have to log into your account using a web browser to perform this action. The result will be visible on your follower list irrespective of your device. This means it will reflect on both the X mobile app and website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_The_Soft_Block_Method\"><\/span><strong>2. The Soft Block Method<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the remove feature, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/soft-block-twitters-lenient-restriction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">soft block method<\/a> existed. This method involves <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-block-how-to-curate-your-social-media-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">blocking unwanted Twitter accounts<\/a> and quickly unblocking them. It deletes the users from your<strong> <\/strong>list of followers without banning them from your profile. They can still view your posts and profile if they run a search query.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, your posts won\u2019t naturally appear on their X feed. The soft block will only make it look like they mistakenly stopped following you. This means the users may follow you again when they notice this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_The_Hard_Block_Method\"><\/span><strong>3. The Hard Block Method<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike the other two methods, hard blocking is a more extreme solution to deleting your followers. This method permanently removes the users from your account and restricts them from seeing your activities. They can see your posts, reply, send you a DM, or follow you again. This option is great for completely avoiding people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of these methods will help you get rid of unwanted followers. But, the method you use depends on your preference and desired results. Now, let\u2019s explain the steps to achieving each method.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/user-2935523_640.png\" alt=\"A vector illustration of a person and cancel icon.\" class=\"wp-image-4090\" style=\"width:480px;height:480px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Delete_Twitter_Followers\"><\/span><strong>How To Delete Twitter Followers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-follower-count-get-in-touch-with-the-numbers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter follower count<\/a> may seem high, but keeping the wrong accounts won&#8217;t improve your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-engagement-rate-the-key-to-a-strong-presence-on-x\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">engagement rate<\/a>. Deleting these users and keeping only the right audience would help your social media growth. This section will cover the detailed steps to remove your X followers using different methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Remove_X_Followers_Natively\"><\/span><strong>How To Remove X Followers Natively<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For this method, you\u2019ll have to access the profile of the users you want to delete. You can search for their profile on the platform or locate them on your follower list. However, the first step to completing this process is to log into your account on the X website. Then, you can proceed with achieving your aim in five simple steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click the <strong>Search<\/strong> tab at the top-right corner to enter the unwanted account\u2019s username, then run a query. Alternatively, click <strong>Profile<\/strong> on the left sidebar, then select<strong> Followers<\/strong> on your profile page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the username of the target account on the search result or followers list to access their profile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the<strong> three-dot icon<\/strong> at the top of the profile to see a drop-down menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>Remove This Follower<\/strong> option. A pop-up message asking you to confirm your choice will appear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the red <strong>Remove<\/strong> option to complete the process.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will delete the user from your account. You must repeat this process for each unwanted account to delete multiple followers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Soft_Block_X_Followers\"><\/span><strong>How To Soft Block X Followers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Soft blocking works similarly to the remove feature. The good part is that it works on the X website and mobile app. Therefore, you can use this method to remove a follower on the X mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works in five steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Navigate to the profile of the account you want to delete.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>three-dot icon<\/strong> at the upper-right corner to open a drop-down menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>Block<\/strong> option. You will see a pop-up message asking you to confirm your choice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Block<\/strong>. You will get a notification that you\u2019ve blocked the account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the <strong>three-dot icon<\/strong> again and select <strong>Unblock<\/strong> to reverse your action.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s it! You\u2019ve successfully deleted the user from your list of followers. You can repeat this action for other unwanted accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Hard_Block_X_Followers\"><\/span><strong>How To Hard Block X Followers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The hard block method will not only delete unwanted accounts, it will ban them forever. You can also use this method on any device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how in four steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Navigate to the unwanted account\u2019s profile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the<strong> three-dot icon<\/strong> in the upper-right corner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the<strong> Block<\/strong> option from the drop-down menu.

This process is stressful and time-consuming if you have many users to delete. Fortunately, there are third-party tools to delete X<strong> <\/strong>followers in bulk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of those tools is Circleboom Twitter, an amazing management tool. This tool helps to remove followers in bulk. It also has filter options to identify fake, inactive, bots, and overactive followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works in four steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Log into the Circleboom Twitter management tool website and authenticate your X account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click<strong> Followers<\/strong> on the left sidebar, then select <strong>All My Followers<\/strong> to view a list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select unwanted followers on the list, then click <strong>Remove Selected Followers<\/strong> to delete them. You\u2019ll see a pop-up message asking you to confirm your choice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the green <strong>Remove Follower<\/strong> option to bulk delete users successfully.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/mediamodifier-6AA9MDixOYM-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"An illustration of a digital tablet with hashtags and X reaction icons.\" class=\"wp-image-4094\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Identify_Ghost_Followers_on_X\"><\/span><strong>How To Identify Ghost Followers on X<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You must wonder how to identify ghost followers for removal from your follower list. There\u2019s no formula for spotting such accounts, but some indicators can help you. Knowing these indicators will help you delete Twitter followers effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the indicators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Profile characteristics:<\/strong> Ghost followers often have no <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-profile-picture-ideas-making-a-great-impression\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X profile picture<\/a> or header photo. Although they may have real usernames, these accounts may not have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/twitter-bio-ideas-guide-to-writing-the-perfect-introduction\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter bio<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Posts history:<\/strong> Accounts rarely posting on X are most likely ghost users. You should check their post frequency and the date of their last post. Unsurprisingly, you may not find any posts on their timeline.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>High following-to-follower ratio:<\/strong> Ghost followers mostly have few posts to attract followers, but they tend to follow more accounts for feeds. Sometimes, they follow other accounts due to obligation. This results in more following than followers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Low engagement:<\/strong> Pay attention to followers who never retweet, like, or reply to your posts. Ghost followers don\u2019t have a genuine interest in your content. So, they don\u2019t contribute to your engagement and growth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_People_See_Who_I_Follow_on_Twitter\"><\/span><strong>Can People See Who I Follow on Twitter?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, if your account is public, people can see who you follow on Twitter, aka X. Public accounts are visible to everyone on the platform. They can see information about the account, including the followers and following list, posts, and reposts. However, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/how-to-set-privacy-on-twitter-protecting-your-twitter-space\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">make your account private<\/a> to hide the list from your non-followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how in four steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click <strong>More<\/strong> on the left-side menu on the X website. Tap the <strong>Profile Picture<\/strong> at the top-left side of the X mobile app and select <strong>Settings and Support<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Settings and Privacy<\/strong>, then<strong> Privacy and Safety<\/strong> on the settings menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, select <strong>Audience, Media, and Tagging<\/strong> on the X activity page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the box next to <strong>Protect Your Posts<\/strong>, then select <strong>Protect <\/strong>from the pop-up message.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have successfully hidden the accounts you follow and your posts from the public. Only your followers have access to view them. Now, you may ask, \u201cHow do you delete Twitter followers?\u201d to protect your posts from accounts with access. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But you don\u2019t have to lose all your followers to have privacy. Instead, use the TweetEraser\u2019s web application to delete posts from your timeline. TweetEraser\u2019s tool filters and deletes bulk posts from your X archive in easy steps.
