What are some good Twitter analysis programs?
I hope I am posting in the right place. I am a student working on a project where I would like to do some analysis on a few twitter accounts within a specific time frame. Basically, I was wondering if there are any programs that you guys may know of that allow me to take a certain number of tweets within a certain time frame which then would let me know some basic summary statistics. For example how many tweets, words used most often, follower growth, reach of tweets, likes, etc.
The goal of my project is to identify if being prevalent and active on twitter leads to successful control of image and narrative for business or political elites.
Any help is appreciated! Again, I hope I am in the right place.

The specific timeframe makes me think it might be a little harder to find, but you are in the right sub for this 🙂

There are a few online services that do stuff similar to this, I’m not sure if I’m allowed to mention names here though.
Edit: Wanted to add that in most cases those are kinda expensive, especially if you’re a student. Unless you are doing this for a lab, and the lab has a budget for it.

There are market research tools that are used by agency or enterprises. I think it would hard to get access to one of these services as a student. I have used audiense, keyhole (limited free access) brandwatch and crimson hexagon for Twitter analysis similar to what you’re describing.
You can also try twitter’s advance search using Boolean. Pretty sure there is a date filter. But I don’t know if it’s possible to extract it directly from Twitter.

Off the top of my head: Brandwatch/Crimson Hexagon (I think the merger is complete?), Affinio, Netbase/Quid.

To be honest, I have not seen a better social media analytics tool than Inosocial, it provides the mos in-depth and detailed information. You can know more about twitter analytics in this useful blog I found on reddit:
