How to keep Twitter account private

September 3, 2009

“I want to keep my Twitter account private so only people I know can read my tweets. How do I block everyone else from reading my posts besides my friends?”

Not everyone wants the world to see what they’re up to so keeping your Twitter account private and blocked from the public is a must for more personal tweets only for your inner circle.

Here’s how to keep your Twitter private:

Log into your Twitter account.

Click on Settings.

Click on Settings in Twitter

Scroll down to near the bottom of the page and put a check on “Protect my tweets”.

Protect the Tweety

Don’t forget to “Save” your new settings.

When you go back to your Twitter home page you will get a notice saying your Twitter profile is now protected. Now only people you approve can follow your tweets.

Twitter is now private
