How to Complete Your Twitter Profile
At this point, you can go to the Twitter home page to access your account, or you can continue the setup process. Before you start following and tweeting, it’s a good idea to finish setting up your profile so that it looks compelling enough for people to follow you back. You know, upload a profile image, or change your Twitter background to grab some attention. You can create your account using an email/phone number or a Google account. Mac and iPhone users can also use their Apple ID.
Add a Header Image to Your Profile
Twitter also allows you to add a background header image. The header image is larger than the profile photo, and it displays behind the profile photo. Twitter interests to choose from:

How To Make Your Twitter Profile Private
Unlike other social media websites, such as Facebook, Twitter accounts are made public by default. That means that anyone on the internet can see your profile details (such as location) and tweets. If you want to make your Twitter profile private so that only users you approve can see your information, go to the left menu pane and select More. Then choose Settings and privacy. On the Settings page, select Privacy and safety and then choose Audience and tagging > Protect your Tweets.
