Twitter Follower Tool to help find local tweeps

by Dan Keller on 04. Mar, 2010 in Social Networking

I was looking through my analytics and it seems like there are three key phrases that continue to drive Google search traffic to my blog.

  • Twitter Follower and Twitter Followers
  • Twitter Follower Tool and Twitter Follower Tools
  • Twitter Follower Management

I was a bit surprised that Google views Tycoon Blogger as an authority when it comes to Twitter Follower Tools, but instead of question it, I have decided to embrace it and will continue to write posts about Twitter Tools that help Manage your Followers.

With that being said, I wanted to share with you a new Twitter Tool that I discovered called Locafollow .  Locafollow is an easy to use Twitter app that makes it easy for you to locate Twitter users by searching on their profile and location fields.

The thing that is cool about this app is the fact that they use Google to search on text that appears in close proximity to the bio and location fields.  This is a major advantage over Twitters current search capabilities.

Locafollow competes in a competitive and ever growing niche of twitter follower apps, which includes Twellow and Tweepsearch, but has some unique advantages that will allow them to carve out their own following.

For one, Locafollow use Oauth so you do not need to give up your password.  Additionally, the user interface is simpler and shows more detail than the other sites.  Also, you have to love the bulk follow option.

If you are looking to grow your Twitter network and looking to go local, Locafollow is worth checking out.

    Thanks Dan, I runa couple of Australian based websites that have Twitter accounts, so I think this will help me find more targetted Twitter followers!

    I wasn’t quick to start tweeting, but I am hearing from a lot of people that I really should.
