How to Start a Brand on X
Create a separate account, choose a clear handle, complete the profile and publish your first video post.
Introduction
An account on X needs only a few public details, but it is worth deciding the name, handle and profile description before you begin posting.
Step 1: Create a Separate Account
Use a dedicated email address if you want to keep Brand notifications and security details separate from your personal account.
- Open X.com or the X app.
- Select Create account.
- Enter the requested account details and complete the security check.
- Enter the code sent to your email and create a strong password.
Step 2: Choose Your Handle
A good handle is short, easy to type and recognisable as part of the Brand.
- Choose a username during setup, or open Edit profile later.
- Use the same handle as your other social profiles when it is available.
- If it is taken, add one short relevant word instead of a long row of numbers.
Step 3: Complete Your Profile
Use the limited profile space to explain what the account publishes.
- Add a square profile image or logo.
- Add a wide header image that relates to the Brand.
- Write a short bio that describes the subject and intended audience.
- Add the website, shop or landing page address if you use one.
Step 4: Check Privacy and Security Settings
Review the account settings before connecting another publishing service.
- Open Settings and privacy from the account menu.
- Review Privacy and safety, including Audience and tagging.
- Leave posts public if the account is intended for a public audience.
- Turn on two factor authentication and review connected apps.
Step 5: Publish Your First Video Post
With the account details in place, you can publish the first video.
- Select Post, then choose the media option.
- Select the video file from your device.
- Write a short introduction and add one or two relevant topic tags if useful.
- Review the post and select Post.
