Followerwonk

[RichardUK]

Just saw the email that Followerwonk is part of the family so thought I'd give it a try.

However once I get over to the site and authorize my Twitter account with it I can't seem to use the functionality of it.

I can start a report based on keywords in a bio it gives me a long list of people but I am unable to follow any of them I just get the text "click to learn how to enable in app follow and unfollow" it then takes me back to the homepage

If you can see the screen I'm signed in Twitter, the top line "Link your SEOMoz account" did have my username in until I authorised the app

Hello  Marc,

It shows that my Followerwonk account is linked to my Moz account and I still cannot download the spreadsheets. At the top right it says HotelPlusPortal and then it shows the GuestSmile logo that we are signed into Twitter. What should I do?

[KeriMorgret]

Hi Shaun,

Since Followerwonk is now part of Moz, the best thing to do is email help@moz.com. Thanks, and sorry for your troubles.

Hi, Shaun,

Make sure your Followerwonk account is linked to your Moz account. I don't see one linked to this account. You'll find a link near the top right of https://followerwonk.com:

Hey Guys,

I signed up with for a free trial on followerwonk and then decided to analyze our account and our followers. When I went to download a CSV/Excel it did not allow me to and it said I had to subscribe. I linked our Moz account and I signed in with Twitter, but it still did not allow me to download the spreadsheet. Can anyone help me with this? I have also emailed followerwonk, but have not been successful.

Hi Marc,

Thanks, it worked.

Hi, Tim. Give this a try and let me know if it resolves the problem for you:

1. Sign out of Twitter.
2. Logout of Followerwonk.
3. Sign in to Followerwonk using one of the Twitter accounts associated with "mb07".
4. Select "add new twitter account".
5. Authorize @TweeTim88 with Twitter.

That should add @TweeTim88 to your list of Twitter accounts. If it doesn't, I'll check the application log files and see what might be causing us grief.

Thanks for your patience, Tim!

Hi, I am having the same issue. I log into my Moz account and when I attempt to sign into Twitter and authorise the app (with the account I wish to add) I get the following message.

You are attempting to link the Moz account "mb07" to the Twitter account @TweeTim88. However, "mb07" has already been linked to the Twitter accounts- etc etc. Attempting to use the "add new twitter account" yields "Please sign up with PRO membership to add more Twitter accounts." because my Moz account becomes un-linked.

Any help would be appreciated

Hi, Fabio! We don't currently impose a limit on the number of Twitter accounts for Pro users. As long as that isn't abused we hope to keep it unlimited. Basic accounts can add one Twitter account.

How many Twitter acounts can add to Follower Wonk?

Hi guys,

I'm just joining on the Pro Trial and were trying Followerwonk with my Twitter account @mahadewa.  After I authorized the app on Twitter and was taken back to FW, I still couldn't use it as a proper subscriber.  It's like as if my Pro membership turned into a free one.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks a lot

Hello, Alan, thanks for the feedback!  We do offer the "Analyze followers" feature, which will break down a user's followers (or followees) by various categories, one of which is time since last tweet.  You should check this out if you haven't already.  And we'll definitely consider your suggestion!

Mine didn't work yesterday, but it works now.

Then I clicked on a "follow" button and it worked, but I went to that account and discovered it had been inactive since February.

And their linked website was parked.

Maybe google killed them with panda and penguin and they gave up.

It was a news related, so I'm not surprised. Google is killing them off like there's no tomorrow.

So here is a suggestion for the app - have a column that shows the last activity from that account.

• or don't list accounts that haven't tweeted in more than a couple of months.

[GalenHuntington]

Yes, you can add more Twitter accounts to your Followerwonk account at any time with the "Add new Twitter account" button.  When you land on Twitter's authorization page, you may or may not already be logged in; that depends on what you've been doing on Twitter!  If you are logged in as the wrong account, select "sign out" from the pulldown menu at the upper right of the authorization page, log in as the Twitter account you want, and click on "Authorize app".  That will add you.  Let me know if you need any further assistance!

[RichardUK]

Hi Galen

Many thanks that worked fine, now if I want to add another twitter account I just hit "add new twitter account"? Assume that I should be signed out of the one I originally went in as?

[GalenHuntington]

Hello Richard,

To add a new Twitter account to Followerwonk, use the "Add new Twitter account" button in the pulldown in the upper right of any Followerwonk page.  This will take you to the authorization page on Twitter where you can authorize the Twitter account you wish to use.

No, revoking access will not break the link; it will only disable certain Followerwonk features.  However, I have disconnected the Twitter account @Rich94 for you, so you can try again connecting the Twitter account (and only the Twitter account) you want.  Let me know if this works for you!

[GalenHuntington]

Hi Simon, thanks for providing details.

When you are sent to Twitter, you will see an authorize page.  There, you can log in as whatever Twitter account you wish to link and click "Authorize app".  If you are already logged in as the desired Twitter account, you can just select "Authorize app".  If you are logged in as a different Twitter account from what you want, you have to sign out of one and then log in as the desired one.  There is a pulldown in the upper right of the screen on the authorize page under your Twitter name that says "sign out".

We realize this process may seem convoluted, but this is how Twitter does authorizations.  Followerwonk is a Twitter app, and so we have to follow Twitter's rules!

I hope this helps!

[RichardUK]

I've looked on my SeoMoz profile and can't see where the account link is? I've revoked access on the @Rich94 account thinking that would break the link?

[simon_realbuzz]

Hi Galen, thanks for the swift response. I'm trying to add the account @realbuzzcom but when I choose the 'Add new twitter account option' I am taken to the 'Authorize Followerwonk to use your account' page. At no point is there an option to specify which account i wish to add. Selecting the 'Authorize app' button just take you back to where you started and still logged to the original twitter account (in this case simon_realbuzz). Essentially there is no place to specify i wish to add @realbuzzcom. Thanks

[GalenHuntington]

Hello, Simon, I see your SEOmoz account is linked to @simon_realbuzz.  Can you tell me what Twitter account you wish to add, and what difficulty you encounter when trying to do it?  Thanks!

[simon_realbuzz]

I'm having the same difficulty and have tried adding other Twitter accounts to the followerwonk account but when clicking add new 'Twitter account' this function does not work.

Hi Galen,

Thanks for your response. That worked perfectly!

Hello, everyone!

We're sorry about the confusion.  This is a recently released product, and we are still working on making it as user-friendly as possible.

What we believe is happening here is that someone has already linked your SEOmoz account to a Twitter account on Followerwonk.  You can only be linked to one Followerwonk account, and it won't let you link another.  We realize it isn't made clear that that is the problem, and we are working to redress that.

Richard, your SEOmoz account is already linked to @Rich94.   Confetti, you are already linked to @NewsletterEx.  Oleg, you are already linked to @MichaelMelen.

You are allowed to have multiple Twitter accounts under the same Followerwonk account, but you must go through a step to specifically authorize this.  In the upper right of the Followerwonk page, there is a pulldown menu in which you can select "Add new Twitter account".  Using this button, you can "merge" your Twitter accounts into the same Followerwonk account.  If that account is linked to your SEOmoz account, then all the Twitter accounts will be.

Let me know if this makes sense and helps you!

Hi guys, thanks for these reports... we're looking into this and will report back shortly!  Peter

I'm seeing something similar. I link my SEOmoz account but when I sign in with Twitter, my SEOmoz account becomes unlinked.

I am having the same issue, must be a coding error
