Twalue - value of your twitter account and is it real??

[Miss_Lollipop]

I used an app to figure out the 'value' of my twitter account ages and ages ago it came up with like $1000 or something. Cool.

So I re-did it today now that its maybe 1-2 yrs later, I have 27,000 followers and do pretty good on twitter.

It came back with a number close to $27,000

And i'm sitting here going "duhhhwhaa??"

Is that even a realistic #?
Can you really sell a twitter account, considering the nature of what mine is?
I can't see it going well for a buyer because lets say another camgirl buys my account, most of my followers would be a bit annoyed that suddenly she's tweeting her boobs not my boobs...


I'm just very confused about this whole "twitter value" thing and what it actually means. Can anyone give me some info?

The site I used was called www.twalue.com

On a financial statement, it's the kind thing you would see under "Goodwill". A brand name like "Apple" has a lot of value, to Apple. If some other company bought the rights to the name, its value wouldn't be nearly the same. You should think of Twalue the same way.

It has something to do with your value to advertisers if you did paid tweets I think, not selling your entire account. I am not sure though.

Made up, just for fun. If you transferred it to someone else it would go to zero again. And no one is buying them, so no way to sell them. It's just for bragging rights.

Mine is worth $1,760 and some change. Neat.


They also have different apps that I've now successfully spent the last 10 20 minutes playing with.

http://www.mytworiginal.com/ that shows you the first 10 people you followed.

http://www.twuration.com/ that shows you how long you've been on Twitter.

http://www.tworiginal.com/ that shows you your first 10 followers.

and http://www.twocation.com/ that shows where your followers are from.

:lol: Mine is worth $46.37 or eleven Big Macs. Wahoo! lol

I assume they assign a value based on how many followers you have and how many people you follow and a few other factors...that they used dollars is meaningless, just an arbitrary symbol. They could have used stars or penguins.

 

[JerryBoBerry]

Mine is $28.71.

But I tend to disagree with their calculation methods. It doesn't take into account the value of those following you. I'd have to say if a dozen people with 30,000 followers follow you or if they put out good quality conversation, that should be worth more than 10,000 followers who only tweet dick pics.

But i've still got Nathan for some reason so I don't care. :lol:

Just theoretical values arbitrarily assigned by someone who has made an algorithm on what they think would make your twitter account valuable. Since there is currently no market to sell twitter accounts the actual value would be $0 at this time.

 

[takuy]

$16.35.
Pretty accurate, I'd say.

 

[curvyredhead]

$8,212.99

nice.

Parody account game is where the real money be at.

 

[LacieLaPlante]

Your Twitter account is valued at...
$37,076.20


I'm sure this means nothing, but i sure wish I had that much moola
