Twitter search can be a boon or a curse depending on how you use it. If you use it the right way, it can help you find thousand of relevant Twitter accounts and connect with the right people on Twitter. If you use it wrongly, you might end up wasting too much time and end up finding irrelevant accounts.
You can use Twitter search to look for new accounts or find old or trending tweets. Other than accounts or tweets, the Twitter search is also used to follow hashtags or check out tweets in a particular hashtag.
Let’s look at some of the common Twitter search mistakes that you should avoid while searching on Twitter:
Not using the Twitter search filters:
Once you type your keyword in the search box, Twitter takes you to the results page where you can use the search filters. The two common filters provided by Twitter are people and location. If you want to limit searches to the people you follow, you can select “people you follow.” To filter search results near you, you can select “near you” from the Twitter filter.
