Twitter scrapers for marketers and influencers

Scraping a list of Twitter profiles helps marketers find either prospects, or their audience. Analyzing the keywords used in bio, size of followings, locations, liked content, blue check, etc. gives you macro perspective on a Twitter audience and help you address it better

Here are a few ways of using Twitter profile scraper:

  • Learn about someone’s audience. Scrape all the followers of some other brand or influencers and learn about their audience.
  • Assess match with audience for your ads. Will some influencer’s target match your ideal persona? Make sure of it by analyzing their audience yourself.
  • Extract websites to prospects later. Extract the URLs out of a bunch of profile, when building a prospection list, for instance.
  • Extract emails from bio. In some cases, emails are displayed. Rather than visiting 1,000s of profile manually, let our Twitter bot scrape these emails automatically.
