We all love twitter but for different reasons, some are here to follow their favorite movie/music/game etc celebrity others for news/politics. Some other are interested in their favorite topic live conversation and few more are to follow humor/comedy accounts. This 140 character service has evolved a lot after it launched in 10 years back. But this good twitter also has some restrictions, here we gonna discus few of them. Here we go…
- Number Of Users You Can Follow – Every new account can follow up to 2000 in one go, after that to reach 2001 mark your number of followers should be 1820 or more. Twitter allow you to follow 10% more when you cross this 1820 mark! A person having 5000 followers can follow 5500 accounts.
- Number Of Followings Per Day – One can follow 1000 twitter users per day. This is a technical limit set by twitter but if you do bulk follow than it is considered as spam and your account my get blocked/suspended by twitter. I won’t suggest you bulk followings.
- Number of Unfollowings Per Day – There is no specific limit set for unfollowing per day. But here again bulk unfollowing is considered Spam! And you might face a blog/suspension of account.
- Number Of Tweets Per Day – Twitter has set a upper limit for number of tweets per day as 1000. And you hardly touch this limit unless you are a spammer!
- Number Of Direct Messages Per Day – 250! Yes any twitter account can send 250 direct messages to their followers. Many twitter accounts use this service as a big tool for twitter marketing.
- Number Of Character In One Tweet – One can post a tweet of 140 characters. Many people use abbreviation or other services which make a long tweet short one.
- Number Or Character In Twitter Bio – One can write a bio of 160 characters. So be choosy when you write bio as it has got a big impression on twitter users. Many will decide from your bio whether to follow you or not.
These are few twitter limits I wrote above. Hope this will help you, especially for newbies.
Happy Tweeting!!
