WEB MARKETING TOOLS

results and connect with users proactively searching for specific keywords and hashtags. This type of targeting is particularly effective during live events or moments when a brand wants to own key brand or competitive terms
like, say, a product launch.Keywords in timeline
While interest targeting focuses on “who,” keyword targeting gets brands closer to “when” so brands can enter into relevant conversations at the right moment. Keyword targeting delivers
messages to users based on what they’ve recently tweeted or if they’ve engaged with
Tweets including specific keywords.
Connect with Twitter users based on their passions.
There are 25 broad interest categories that drill down into more than 350 sub-
topics. To reach more niche audiences, you can also
utilize @username targeting to find users with interests similar to the followers of
that account.
