Twitter tools to the rescue! Twitter is a powerful marketing tool, but it can be daunting to keep up on the constant updates and changes to the social network. Luckily, many tools exist to help manage Twitter presence and engagement. Here are a few of our favorites:

Twitter Tools to Manage a Twitter audience

Answering the question, “Where did my Twitter followers go?” may be difficult since Twitter does not notify admins when an account loses a follower.

To better understand audience retention, try Crowdfire. Crowdfire tracks follower trends.

• Who is active or inactive?
• How does Twitter following relate to posted content?

Crowdfire also helps easily identify and unfollow inactive followers thus increasing an account’s engagement potential.

ManageFlitter is another great Twitter tool that enables followers to be sorted by various criterion and creates convenient lists from these sorts.

ManageFlitter tracks when followers are active and therefore determines the best time to schedule Tweets.
