How to Stop Twitter from Sending New Follower Messages

Twitter sends you an e-mail message every time a kind soul decides to follow you. Personally, I love getting these messages because it’s great to know that my tweets have a growing audience, and it also gives me a chance to check out lots of other profiles. You never know who you might come across and decide to follow yourself.
 

On the other hand, if your profile becomes quite popular, getting tons of messages from Twitter may not appeal to you. Similarly, you might be following as many people as you can handle, so you’re not interested in also following any of your new followers.
 

If that’s the case, then you should follow these steps to tell Twitter to stop sending you an e-mail message each time someone follows you:

1. Sign in to your Twitter account.
2. Click Settings. The Settings page appears.
3. Click the Web Notifications tab.

4. Deselect the "I'm followed by someone new " check box.

 

5. Click Save. Twitter updates your profile with the new setting.
