Use Cases of Twitter Followers Progress Bar
When one sets a target and declares it to the public, you automatically create accountability. That in turn helps motivate one to chase the target more rigorously. On the other hand, if you have a YouTube channel, website, or any service to provide, you can conduct a giveaway with this tool. For example, one can giveaway X if he/she reaches Y number of followers. Announcing the giveaway with your Twitter followers along with the target may help gain new followers quickly. Instead of just using this tool as followers counter for Twitter, you also have the option to use it to track life goals. For example, you can start 100 days of coding, gym, or reading challenge and use this tool to showcase progress publicly. As everyone can view your progress, it will motivate you to complete tasks.
How to Add Follower Progress Bar on Twitter
- First, open the Black Magic Twitter tool page and click on Sign in with Twitter to connect your Twitter account with the tool.
- Now, log in to your Twitter account if you haven’t already and click on Authorize app.
- Once authorized, you will be redirected to the Black Magic website where you can configure the progress bar.
- Here you can select your Twitter follower target like 100, 1000, and even 10,000 followers from the drop-down menu. Select the Exact followers count option to specify the exact number of followers you want to target.
- Additionally, you can also select Read from bio to add the target to bio.
- In the Bio, you just need to type in the format of “(xxx/yyy)” and BlackMagic automatically picks the X option as your completed progress and the Y option as total progress.
- For example, I am setting a target for 100 days of coding, so I will change my bio to I am taking the challenge of 100 days of coding (14/100)”.
- This will show the progress bar on your profile pic. I have completed 14 percent.
- But you will have to change the progress manually to 15,16, percent in the bio to update the progress in the profile pic.
- You can also change the progress bar’s and background’s color. No need to save any changes. Any changes you make here will sync with your account in 120 seconds.
