If you've
seen that white check-mark in a blue cloud on somebody's Twitter profile, that
means they hold a "verified account. They concentrate on "highly
sought users in music, acting, fashion, government, politics, religion,
journalism, media, advertising, business, and other key interest areas.
1.Determine
if you qualify for a verified Twitter account
Twitter verifies as few
accounts as possible and only for legitimate reasons. Reasons for asking
Twitter include being a highly recognizable public figure (athletes, artists,
public officials, public or government agencies, etc.). This is for avoiding multiple
Twitter accounts, leading to identity confusion. Twitter will not consider you
for verification based on your number of followers.
*Twitter recommends embedding a
Twitter "Follow" button on your official website as the best
alternative to verification. You can learn how to do this here.
This allows you to obtain followers directly from your official site, which is
very helpful if there are multiple Twitter accounts that use your name.
*
Twitter
also recommends including a link to an official website as an alternative to
verification.
2.Read the Verified Account terms
These
terms explain what a verified account is, what it means to be verified, who has
the verified badge, identifying a verified account, etc. They can be found here.
3.Find out how to apply for a
verified account
Send a direct message to this address. Be sure to have the
following information ready.
o

4.Wait until Twitter to respond
If
you don't get a reply shortly, you can contact
Twitter by snail mail or through Twitter. Keep in mind that Twitter deals
with a high volume of verification requests, and that it focuses first on the
most "highly sought users."
5.Follow Twitter's instructions
for verifying your account
If
Twitter decides that you qualify for a verified account, they will reach out to
you via direct message. Click the link in the direct message to be taken to
finish the process.
6. Do not change your account information
Once you have received a verification badge, it is important to keep your
account information the same. Changing information, such as your profile image,
can cause Twitter to remove the badge, forcing you to contact them again.
