Different social media has different uses, strengths, and advantages. Twitter could be called a ‘real time social networking’ site, a place for sharing information as it happens and for connecting with others in real time, often making lasting friendships and contacts. But to use Twitter, you will need an account. Here is how to create one!
Step One
Go to Twitter's homepage at http://www.twitter.com/. You should see options to either log in or sign up in the upper right of the screen.If you are on a tablet or smartphone, you could be redirected to the mobile website of Twitter.
Step Two
Click on Sign Up. This will start the process of creating a new Twitter account. After clicking signup, you will be redirected to the first step of the sign-up process.Go to this link if you want to skip directly to this step: https://twitter.com/signup
Step Three
Enter a valid e-mail address. Any e-mails or news from Twitter will be sent to this e-mail address. Don't worry, if you do not want to be spammed by Twitter, you can always block the address. Read our article about how to block an e-mail address.This will be used for recovering your account if you ever forget your information.You can also use your mobile phone number if you want that option for account recovery.
Step Four
Enter in a username. In addition to your real name, this will be shown on your profile and will be another way people can find you. If you have ever seen an @ symbol, followed by a name, it is likely a Twitter username.Twitter will also automatically suggest some names for you based off of your real name. The username isn't too important, so any one of these options would be fine.
Step Five
Enter a strong password. Be sure that your password is not too easy to guess, but no so hard that you can't remember it. Read out article about how to create a password for some advice. Note down the password somewhere so you don't forget it.
Step Six
Enter your phone number. If you used an e-mail account in one of the previous steps, you will be prompted to enter a valid phone number. After registering your number, you will receive a text with a confirmation code. If you do not receive this text, you likely entered in the wrong number.Enter in the code after clicking "Next." Now, if you forget your login credentials, Twitter can send them to this number.
