Everyone has a different reason to manage the followers they have gained on Twitter. Knowing this, I set out to find a range of Twitter Follower Trackers, Follower Managers, and overall Twitter Statistics Tools that would not only help with my own needs, but yours as well.

What I found was 10 of the best and free Twitter Tools (some have feature upgrades) that help you maintain or manage your Twitter Following, some way or another. From finding and getting notified of lost followers, to management tools that help group & maintain your those you follow you and you follow as well, and even statistics with graphs that break down every aspect of your Twitter account.

Bonus Tool – Tweet Adder

TweetAdder isn’t exactly a follower management tool, it’s more of a follower getter that helps maintain your following for you. The tool acts like a human doing the Twitter work over the Web. From logging into twitter, following and unfollowing users, and tweeting for you… The feature list is rather extensive, and the key factor is, it’s all done from the Web.

While I only recently started using TweetAdder, I use it on all of my Accounts. So far, it appears to add roughly 600-1000 new followers a month, and I’m using conservative settings. If you’re worried about the quality of users, you can load them yourself, use the search, or follow another users followers or lists. And you can apply filters to remove some users.

I’ve used several paid twitter tools, this is the only one I’ve ever needed, I just wish it was around a few years back. Mix it with a few of the totally free tools above, and you’ve got the best twitter weapon combo you can get!
