How do I make my twitter/tweets private? - unknown - 03-09-2014 05:42 AM

I have a twitter I made just to follow my favorite celebrities and not people in real life. Is there anyway I can make it so that random people who I'm not following can't see my tweets, but the people I am following still can and also can reply/retweet if I tag them?

Thanks!

To make your Twitter account updates private, go to to http://www.twitter.com and sign in. Click on Settings in the top right menu and then click on Account in the top left menu. Next click on Protect My Updates toward the bottom of the page. Then Click Save.

Once you have made your Twitter Updates private, you must approve your followers that you want to allow to read your tweets. You will receive an e-mail notification when someone wants to follow you and you will need to approve them so they can join your "following" list. (:

you'll be able to hide your tweets from people who don't follow you, but still have your tweets show up in people's mentions
