Fake Social Media Followers and Accounts – How to Spot Them

Posted on March 30, 2023 by schatzi

Fake social media followers are really common these days,

For some reason, there seems to be a trend where numbers matter more to businesses than actual sales. When you’re looking at it like that, it doesn’t make sense does it?

That is the problem that I’m facing as a social media manager for businesses. This especially applies in the music industry where I tend to interact with artists, bands and record labels that have huge numbers of twitter followers – sometimes over 500,000 where 80-90% are fake.

Having fake social media followers doesn’t make sense from a business perspective, because you look at higher numbers of people that don’t actually go on the social network at all. So it’s just an e-mail address that no-one uses that is registered to an account that no-one uses that is following your account.

I personally believe that an actual social network of 100,000 is worth a lot of money, as it can be used to promote and grow revenue to make up 70-80% of business income.

You can have a look at my twitter profile to understand what I mean, this has 110,000+ followers when this article was written.

This is a network I built over the last year and something, from scratch using some proper social media management techniques that I base most of my work on.

If you have a look at the account you will say – this is probably fake – but there is a really simple way to check this particular account that does not involve anything extra.

Unless there is a known brand or personality or it’s an account publicised on a massive-traffic website, they will not have a large number of followers and not be following a lot of people.

For example, my account has 110,000 followers but I’m following 90,000+ people back. This is because I follow back people that follow me, thus increasing the bond and relationship between us as people, and encourage them to promote my account, even sometimes using the #followback hashtag.

If you are following people back – Twitter’s limitations do not allow you to follow more than 1000 people per day – so this means that during the lifetime of the account I had to have 1000 real people follow me and follow them back on a daily basis for at least 90 days. Because you never get 1000 per day unless heavy advertising is involved – most likely this number is around 200 per day – so it took around 450 days for me to grow to this number – this is actually a bit less than my account age – this is displayed on my Twitter main page, that I joined in July 2010. This proves that I cannot have fake followers as twitter would disable my account if I was following 90,000 accounts that are inactive – therefore fake.

What about the other 20,000 going to 110,000?

If you calculate – number of people that are actually interacting with you from 90,000 follow-backs you will get at least 50% of people advertising you or mentioning you to say thanks and 20% of their network people following you from that – hence the 20,000 extra followers I have on top of my 90,000.

There are more tips and tricks on checking and verifying social media accounts in this article: Fake Social Media Followers.

Major Aspects to Remember Before Starting Mobile Application Development

Posted on March 29, 2023 by schatzi

The demand for smart-phones has greatly increased in the past few years and the mobile industry has justified this demand by providing new and better smart-phones on a regular basis. Organizations have realized that the market for their products and services is now shifting towards mobile phones as more and more potential customers are aligning towards it. Mobile application development has also seen an impressive growth as individuals and organizations want to be available to their clients through mobile phones also. Usually, organizations take help of a mobile application development company to procure highly flexible and business centric mobile apps. The major aspects to be considered before jumping into mobile apps development are:

Feasibility of the project: The most important thing to consider before starting the development of any application is its feasibility. You must make sure that the project is worth risking money. If an app similar to yours already exists then think what extra you can offer to lure in the customers. Also make sure that the app is practically feasible and can actually be conceived. An app with great features but not having a large user base is not worth spending too much money.

The User: To make any app a success, it is most important to recognize its user and their requirements. If the user is not impressed by the application then it is likely that the whole process of mobile apps development goes in vain. Also, it must be considered whether the app will cater to local users or will it have a worldwide presence.

The Technology: Different phones use different mobile technologies. Some of the most popular platforms used in smart-phones are Android, i OS and Blackberry platform. If an application is developed for a specific platform then most probably it will not work for other platforms. It is essential to decide the development platform as the users of that platform smart-phone will only be able to access your app.

Project Duration: It is highly essential to decide a final project completion date. This time duration should be justifiable according to the complexity of the project. Apps created in a hurry are usually ineffective and end up being a waste of time, money and energy. Whereas, if unnecessary time is consumed on the project then the total development cost of the project will rise. Moreover, your competitors can find out what you are up to and may launch a similar application before you could. This will definitely hurt your business revenue.

Application Price: The price of your application over the online application store is going to be very essential for you. While some users may not care much about the price but most of the users will definitely keep the price of the app in their priority list. This may initially require the client to offer discounts or schemes on their apps so that they can at least penetrate the market. Once the app has gained some popularity you can always increase the prices.

Clients and organizations should research and find a capable mobile application development company that can help them in achieving desired solutions.
