Overview
The Discover New X Users tool allows you to search across a database of more than 315 million active X users to identify people who match specific interests, locations, or other criteria.
This feature is ideal for discovering potential customers, influencers, partners, or communities that align with your goals. Once you've found relevant users, you can further analyze them, organize them into audiences, and engage with them using Audiense Connect's community management tools.
Search for New Users: Open Discover New X Users
From the top navigation bar, select Audiences, then choose Discover New X Users.
Enter Your Search Criteria
Enter one or more search terms using the available search fields.
For example, you might search for:
- Keyword: Graphic Designer
- Location: London
You can also use Advanced Search Syntax to combine multiple keywords, operators, and criteria for more precise searches.
Run the Search
Select Search to retrieve matching users.
Audiense searches its user database and displays matching results on the Community Wall.
Refine Your Results
If your search returns too many users, use the Search and Filter Sidebar to narrow the results.
You can continue refining your audience by applying additional filters until you've identified the users most relevant to your search.
Explore Search Results
Matching users are displayed on the Community Wall, where you can browse profiles and perform a variety of community management actions.
From the Community Wall, you can:
- Search and filter users further.
- Follow or unfollow users.
- Organize users with Tags and Lists.
- Add users to an Audience.
- Generate a Best Time to Post (BTTT) report.
- View Community Insights.
- Perform additional engagement and management actions.
Search Accuracy
To keep searches fast and scalable across hundreds of millions of X users, Audiense uses profile data that is refreshed periodically.
Note
Profile information used by the Discover New X Users tool is refreshed at least every 15 days.
As a result, you may occasionally notice small differences between search results and other areas of Audiense Connect, such as:
- Audience sizes
- Time since a user's last post
- Other profile metrics
These minor differences are expected and result from the different data refresh schedules used throughout the platform.
