So, your profile in the browser address bar is: twitter.com\/ + username.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2705 It is used to <strong>sign-in on the device<\/strong> on which you want to use Twitter. This is one of the options, along with your email address or phone number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2705 Users <strong>can search for your profile<\/strong> using your username. This appears both in the search suggestions and in the results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you know a little more about what your username means for your account, which might be useful when it comes to picking your Twitter handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Your username is different and unrelated to your profile name on Twitter.

Add elements to your username to set them apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if you have one account in English and another in Spanish, you could add an \u201cES\u201d for the Spanish one and an \u201cEN\u201d to the English one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ranking in the search results<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If it doesn&#8217;t look awkward and you have space, adding a keyword for your sector to your username might make it easier to find on the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing and social media are words that could be crucial to set you apart if you want to reach users through search engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these tips, you can start thinking about what Twitter username you want for your profile. Remember, when you&#8217;ve thought of one, click save to finalize your changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-499968f5 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button boton-rosa\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/metricool.com\/twitter-marketing\/\" style=\"border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to Use Twitter for Marketing Your Business<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any questions, we\u2019ll be waiting in the comments section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Change your Twitter username if you want to give your content an extra twist, if you have left a business, or you want to launch as a personal brand.
