Tumblr Unfollower: The Ultimate Guide
Install the Tumblr Unfollower with Ease and Step by Step directions.
When I first heard of the Unfollower plugin for tumblr It was through my dashboard. One of the people I followed reblogged another user’s promo post in order to get this “Secret” somewhat “Exclusive” plugin.
This Mystery Plugin showed you the names of people who unfollow you; A useful tool for those who promise a Follow for Follow or participate in the “Follow Back” trains.
Knowing the nature of tumblr I knew the Exclusivity was just a scheme for this guy to gain a few more followers in exchange for a link to the plugin. So I went out and discovered how simple the solution was.
