Is it just bots he is looking for or fake accounts? Back 10 years ago or so, I was pumping websites using as many twitter accounts for backlinks as I could. I probably have more than 10 accounts that haven’t been used in 10 years and I was an amateur in the SEO business.
If they include fake accounts, not just robotic accounts(or accounts that reply robotically), then they might uncover some crazy stuff. Like 25+% of all accounts might be fake or “duplicate” for marketing and pumping other websites up.
Just checked, I have 5 personally, but I probably created dozens using SENuke back in the day. Maybe hundreds. Why not they were free right?
Advertising basically charges for reaching potential customers. More potential customers view an ad, the higher rate charged for an ad. Since bots and inactive accounts do not purchase anything, then including them in an ad reach is basically fraudulent. That is an issue!
