Audiense Insights allows you to choose from 9 different criteria filters. It isn't necessary to fill them all in, but depending on the audience you are trying to define, you can add as many as you wish to create your perfect audience!
Note: The Advanced Audience Manager is only available for users with an Audience Insights plan. Users with a Free plan or Twitter Marketing plan will not be able to select this option, instead we provide the Basic Audience Manager.
See the different filters below:
Age: If you'd only like to understand certain age ranges, check these boxes.
Biography: Segment by how people describe themselves. Type in free text and separate by a comma, or press enter. Eg: runner or belieber or basketball lover or sports fanatic etc.
No need to use quotations, as the tool does this for you - as long as you hit enter or separate the keywords with a comma in between, you should see this saved as a block.
Entity Type: If you'd only like to understand people or brands check one of these boxes.
Followers of: Choose the Followers filter if you want to find people who are interested in a certain brand or person. Simply type in their twitter handle to create an audience of people who follow X.
