What is a mutual on Twitter?

To put it simply, Twitter mutuals are people you follow, and they follow you back—creating a "mutual" connection between your accounts. This two-way relationship signifies that there’s likely a shared interest or affinity between the two accounts.

In other words, the followers you don't follow back, or those you follow but are not following back aren't your mutuals.

Unlike random followers, mutuals are typically more engaged with your content. The connection often leads to more interaction, which means Twitter mutuals are crucial for building a vibrant and engaged community.


Why are Twitter mutuals so important?

👥
Increased engagement: Mutuals are more likely to interact with your tweets because the connection is two-sided and they'd know that you'd interact with them also.

👥
Social proof: When someone sees that you have a follow ratio close to 1:1, they may become more likely to follow you, knowing that you'll also possibly follow back to become mutuals on Twitter.

👥
Networking opportunities: Twitter mutuals can introduce you to new followers or opportunities within your niche through what are usually known as the "follow trains".


How to check mutual followers on Twitter

Now that you know the value of Twitter mutuals, how do you check who your mutuals on Twitter are?

Well, let me tell you this: X (Twitter) itself doesn’t have a built-in “mutuals checker”. So you have to manually check them if you do not use a third-party Twitter follow back checker tool.

To check manually, you can;

  1. Either visit your "Followers" tab and check the accounts that you're also following back,
  2. Or visit your "Following" tab and check who follows you back, which is indicated with a small badge that says "Follows you".

NOTICE: Some people are unable to view all their followers or followings natively through X (Twitter). If you're also having such issues, you may want to check our article below.
