How to see Tweet Analytics 📈 (No Need for Twitter Premium)
I'll keep this short and to the point: There are several different ways to view tweet analytics.
I'll try to cover them all in this article, starting from the very basic manual method of checking each tweet one by one all the way to viewing tweet analytics of any public account through a third-party tool, namely Circleboom Twitter ⬇️
Before we delve deeper, it's important to first understand what people mean when they refer to "Tweet analytics." This term generally encompasses the data and insights derived from Twitter posts, including metrics such as impressions, engagement rates, likes, retweets, and other performance indicators that help users measure the impact of their tweets.
What is Tweet Analytics?
Tweet analytics: It is the process of reviewing the performance of your tweets based on metrics like impressions and Twitter engagement metrics such as likes, retweets, etc.
These insights help you:
- Understand your audience’s preferences,
- Determine the best time to post on Twitter, and
- Optimize your content strategy in line with these.
How to see tweet analytics: All methods
There are 5 things that can be done to see tweet analytics. Here are all of them.
Method 1: View Tweet Analytics manually
You can simply go to a tweet to check the impressions and engagement it got. This method works for your own tweets as well as the tweets of your following or other public accounts.
It's not the most effective way, though, as it requires going through all the tweets that you'd like to see the analytics of one by one.
Method 2: Utilize Twitter's native analytics to view your Tweet Analytics
Twitter analytics is a useful platform where you get to see how your content performs.
You can see tweet analytics of your own by simply clicking on the "Content" tab while you're on the main dashboard.
It has a few downsides, though:
- You can only see your own tweet analytics.
- You still have to go manually through all the metrics.
- It's only for verified users (X Premium subscribers).
Method 3: Use Circleboom Twitter to see your Tweet Analytics
This is also an alternative to Twitter analytics for your own account if you don't want to become an X Premium subscriber and get a Twitter checkmark.
Here's a step-by-step walkthrough:
Step #1: Log in to Circleboom Twitter and connect your Twitter account.
Then hover over the left menu and find "Post Analytics".
Step #2: The first option here, "Post Analytics Overview & Graphs" gives you an aggregate lookout of your performance.
Here, you can see many different details regarding the engagement levels of your posts. You can also play with the metrics from the top left and change the date range from the top right.
Step #3: If you go for "Post Engagement Analytics", you can see the same metrics, but this time for each tweet individually.
On this screen, you can also filter tweets by many variables such as impressions, like count, click counts, profile visits, date, etc.
Step #4: Last but not least comes the "Video Analytics". This part is specifically designed for your tweets that have a video, as they require more specific metrics to be tracked.
You can see an aggregate performance graph at the beginning, followed by individual tweets. Filters work here also.
All this info is provided by an official enterprise partner of X, so it's safe to use it.
But again, like many other methods, this works for accounts that you have access to.
Method 4: View your tweet analytics through your Twitter archive
You can request and download your Twitter archive at any time to view your tweets and, hence, your tweet analytics. You should locate the file named as either one of the "tweet", "tweet.js", "tweets", or "tweets.js".
Again, this method only works for your own tweets, and it will take even more time to go through each tweet one by one. The only good thing about it is that it's completely free.
Method 5: Download tweets of any public account with Circleboom to see Tweet Analytics
Ah... At last... A comprehensive solution to view tweet analytics that can be used by anyone and for anyone: The ability to download tweets with Circleboom.
You simply need to type in the handle you'd like to download the tweets of along with the email address you'd like the exported tweets to be sent to.
You should then receive a file with all the relevant details, such as tweet ID, username, tweet text, engagement metrics (likes, retweets, replies), language, and timestamps.
It just becomes easier than ever to review and analyze the tweets.
It's the best alternative among these 4 if you ask me, because;
- It's easy.
- It's secure.
- It can be used for your own tweets as well as the tweets of any other public profile.
- It lets you export tweets into a spreadsheet, allowing you to work on all the details to view the tweet analytics with fancy methods.
