Ten Commandments of Twitter Handles
Instructions on how to make the best Twitter @handle
I've always had an obsession with Twitter handles, so it's time to compile rules on how to make the optimal one!
- 1.Do not make your handle all CAPITAL - it makes your username hard to read, and more AGGRESSIVE.
- 2.Capitalization may only be used for: i. Names with acronyms (ex:
U.S.A
->@USA
). ii. Two words where the letters in the beginning and ends match (ex:Not Thomas
->@NotThomas
) iii. Words that come after numbers (ex:30 Days
->@30Days
) iiii. In a handle that contains acronyms (ex:exampleNFT
->ExampleNFT
) - 3.Avoid using underscores (
_
) to space words out, it is better to just write it out (ex:@real_man_sam
->@realmansam
) - 4.It is permissible to add an underscore (
_
) after a Twitter handle you desire but is already take (ex:@takenhandle
->@takenhandle_
) . - 5.i) Never add an underscore (
_
) in the beginning of your handle. - 6.ii) Never add two underscores (
__
) in a row in your handle. - 7.If you have an acronym in your handle it must either be all lowercase or all capital (ex:
@ExampleDao
->@ExampleDAO
or@exampledao
) - 8.If you would like to incorporate domain names into your handle it can be done with an underscore (
_
), or without, if you would like to incorporate the.io
domain it may be in capital if it is with an underscore (_
) before. - 9.Avoid random numbers in your handle at ALL costs.
- 10.Use your own judgement, if your eyes see something off with your handle, just change it, won't hurt anyone
