5 Reasons to Backup Twitter
Employee error, server outages, bugs in third-party programs, legal compliance regulations, and public demands all pose risks to Twitter data and can result in lost or deleted tweets. Backing up Twitter data ensures that tweets will be preserved and can be restored in the event of data loss from any of these potential causes. Regular backups protect Twitter accounts from accidental deletions, insecure passwords, data exposure, server failures, and issues with third-party Twitter access programs that may wipe account data. Backups also allow complete documentation of tweets that could be relevant in legal cases or compliance investigations.
