  I had exactly the same problem on both my blogs. Yesterday I had a total of 46 on artipeeps.wordpress.com and 42 on creokardia.wordpress.com today they’ve gone down to 5 and 3! . All my Twitter followers seem to have disappeared.

  I’d be grateful for any information regarding this matter.
  Thanks very much.

  There is something going between WordPress and social medias. I was facing this too but all sorted on reconnecting.
  Reconnect to social media.
  Settings > Sharing Settings

  Ok, I have my FB, twitter ect followers back. I have 581 in total. But yesterday I had 735. So what happened to the other subscribers? Those who don’t have a FB account (or twitter or LinkedIn)?? I’m still missing those!
  Thanks for the help.

  Hello, I also have the same problem. I had more than 600 followers last week and now I only have 230. What do you think could have happened? Is it to do with WordPress?

  Best Juliet

  Please try the reconnection processes found here:
  Reconnecting Facebook – http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-facebook
  Reconnecting Twitter – http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-twitter
  Reconnecting Linkedin – http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-linkedin

  Then go to your Stats page and under Totals, Followers & Shares, do the numbers of your WordPress.com Followers + Twitter + Facebook add up to the number that appears in the Follow Blog widget in your sidebar?
