Step 4: How to Properly Unfollow in Bulk

To keep your account safe and healthy, do the following:

• If you are planning on unfollowing accounts, be sure to take breaks and not do them all at once. Break it up with a couple of follow/unfollow sessions.
• Do not Sharp Drop: Large amounts of un-follows all at once can send up red flags. Aim your unfollowing over the course of a few days.
• Consistent Maintenance: rather than going on mass unfollow sprees once in a while, do consistent maintenance to keep your following list at bay.
• Interact with Accounts: Once you have unfollowed, interacting in some way (likes/comments/etc) will give more credibility to your activity.
