Get Your Twitter Handle

The first step in creating a Twitter account is to choose your
Twitter handle or in other words your username.

Your Twitter handle will look like this in the URL
http://twitter.com/YourUsername.

Many of the prime domain names, especially those that end in
.com have been desirable for a long time and are hard to find and
can be extremely expensive.

If you do not reserve your domain name for the web your
personal brand or business is at risk and once it is lost reclaiming
it can be difficult. The popularity of Twitter has made account
caused the same scarcity problem with account names, so get
yours now!

If you do not claim your Twitter handle you can risk having
imposters tweeting using your brand, which could become a
major issue for your brand.

It is important to get the Twitter handle for your full name as
soon as possible. You will also want to claim handles for any
company or products that you currently own or that you have
plans to create. You will not be able to truly own your personal
brand if you cannot access your own Twitter handle.
