What are the best free tools for analyzing a Twitter profile? During a social media audit I like to run a company’s Twitter profiles through some basic analysis tools to set benchmarks and compare them to competitors. I got good response to my post on Facebook analytics tools so I thought I’d do something similar for Twitter. But this time I’m going to highlight free tools that anyone can use. I’m focusing specifically on profile analysis as opposed to Twitter tools for other purposes.
With hundreds of add-on tools, Twitter certainly has plenty of ways you can analyze its data. I set out to find the best tools that I would recommend for you to track and compare your own Tweets, as well as examine the growth of followers and when you actually send out your 140-character missives. My two faves are TweetStats and Twittercounter. As you are resting from your Thanksgiving feast, you might want to try them out, along with several others that I will show you. There are other tools that involve "sentiment analysis," being able to examine what people are Tweeting about or the attitude they are expressing in their tweets.
A short study of this web site reveals that a hugely important factor for success in startup companies is finding ways to acquire customers at a low cost. In the Business Models section, we looked at the perfect business model: Viral customer acquisition with good monetization . However viral growth turns out to be an elusive goal, and only a very small number of companies actually achieve true viral growth. In 2005, I invested in a company called Tabblo (acquired by HP in 2007), and had the good fortune to work with an outstanding entrepreneur, Antonio Rodriguez. Tabblo did manage to achieve good viral growth, but around the same time YouTube was launched and managed to achieve explosive viral growth. In the process of looking at these two companies, we learnt several important things about virality.

An important marketing concept known as "The Long Tail" is used to describe the hundreds to thousands of keywords and key phrases that a website is found for, yet rarely noticed or exploited by owners of the website. The principle of the Long Tail is the opposite of focusing on the top 10-20 keywords for marketing your website. The "top keyword" concept is reinforced by agencies that contract to gain rankings for 10-20 terms, maybe 30.
In an online world where social media reigns supreme, it can be hard to cut through the constant bombardment of content and chatter, to find the real meaning in it all. I know when I first started out on Twitter I got totally overwhelmed at this stream of tweets that never ended, from people I didn’t know, and most of it seemed irrelevant. Nowadays I know exactly where to look and what to do to cut to the heart of the matter – be it business or personal. Once Facebook optimized the home feed, I used to find there was way too much to information to scan through. Frankly the feed left me feeling I was missing out on my friends’ lives and all the important events or brand updates. Now I filter the right information and use the new features to see what I want when I want (within reason).
