How Do Tailored Tweets Happen On Your X Twitter Account?
They show up under FOR YOU on your mobile device when you hit the X Twitter app button. Next to FOR YOU is FOLLOWING. These are the tweets from people you follow on the social network.
The FOR YOU section is what Twitter thinks you will want to see from past actions on your account.
It is on the Home button on the desktop version of your Twitter account.
The 4 Ways Tailored Tweets Are Useful To You
1. See Important Tweets
First, see what tweets are important to you. You can see your most interesting stuff from your favorite peeps. I always did this via my Twitter lists. If you haven’t started a list I do suggest you do.
2. View Your Follower’s Tweets
Next, see your follower’s tweets. This can be used to find more like-minded peeps on Twitter. It’s a great way to see who your friends or competitors are following on Twitter.
3. Look At Competitor Tweets
Then check out your competition. You can learn a lot when you look around and see what others are doing on the Twitter platform.
4. Listen To Conversations
Last but not least read what others are talking about. I love this one. Learn what others on your Twitter friends are talking about. See what is relevant to them and others. This will help you tailor your own tweets better on the Twitter newsfeed.
Again you can use Twitter lists to do all these above points.
Why Are Twitter Tailoring Tweets For You?
Twitter is trying to make it easy for those using Twitter to navigate it more quickly and be able to catch up in a moment.
It’s like Facebook and Instagram – as a result, they now show you more from people you interact with on those social networks.
They like to show you things that are relevant to your behaviors on the network. It’s all about the algorithms today on these social networks.
Why? That’s how they gather data and are better able to target people via ads.
Changing Your Settings
You can also change your settings on Twitter so you will see more of the content you want to see. They give you a lot of different topics you can pick and choose from for tailored tweets.
If you haven’t done it in a while, I suggest you check the topics out as they have updated them over time.
How Else Can You Monitor Your Twitter Activity?
Don’t forget to check your Twitter analytics too. Between the tailored tweets and Twitter analytics, you can really learn a lot about how this network is working for you or not.
You will be able to see data that will help you make your Twitterness better.
Of course, if you subscribe to a social listening tool you will hear what others say about you on any social media channel or blog.
