How to create a private twitter account

Matty Erickson 3 min read

If you’re looking to create a private twitter account, there are a few things you’ll need to do. First, you’ll need to create a new twitter account using a different email address than the one you used for your public account. Once you’ve done that, you’ll need to go into the settings for your new account and change the account type to “private.” This will ensure that only people who you approve can follow you and see your tweets.

Once you’ve made your account private, you may want to consider creating a list of people who you want to be able to follow you. This way, you can control who has access to your tweets and what information they can see. You can also add people to this list who you don’t want to be able to follow you, such as ex-friends or family members.

How to go private on twitter

  1. go to your settings
  2. click on the account tab
  3. under “Account security,” check the box next to “Protect my tweets.”
  4. click the “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page. Your tweets are now protected and only your approved followers will be able to see them.
  5. If you ever want to go back to a public account, simply uncheck the “Protect my tweets” box and click “Save changes” again. Your tweets will be public once more.

How to keep your tweets from showing up in Twitter search results

  2. click on the account tab
  3. under “Privacy and safety,” check the box next to “Do not allow my tweets to be retweeted.”
  4. click the “Save changes” button at the bottom of the page. Your tweets will now be protected from being retweeted by anyone, even if they are following you.
  5. If you ever want to allow your tweets to be retweeted again, simply uncheck the “Do not allow my tweets to be retweeted” box and click “Save changes” once more. Your tweets can now be retweeted by anyone who sees them.

How to make sure only the people you want can see your profile and tweets

  1. go to your settings
  2. click on the account tab
  3. under “Privacy and safety,” check the box next to “Protect my tweets.”
  4. click on the “Edit” button next to “Who can see your future tweets?”
  5. in the pop-up window, select “Only people you approve can follow you.”
  6. click the “Save” button. Your tweets are now protected and only people you have approved will be able to see them.

How to make an existing Twitter account private

If you already have a Twitter account but want to switch it to being private, there are a few steps you’ll need to follow. First, go to your settings and click on the “Security and privacy” tab. Next, scroll down to the “Privacy and safety” section and check the box next to “Protect my tweets.” Once you’ve done that, click on the “Edit” button next to “Who can see your future tweets?” In the pop-up window, select “Only people you approve can follow you.” then click the “Save” button. Your tweets are now private and can only be seen by people you’ve approved.

You can always change this setting back by selecting “Everyone” in the “Who can see your future tweets?” section and clicking the “Save” button. This will make your tweets visible to everyone again.Keep in mind that if you make your account private, people who were following you prior to changing your settings will need to re-request to follow you again. This is because they will be considered “not Approved” once you go private.
