Show HN: Graph search for Twitter

Hey- I'm one of the co-founders of SocialRank.com.

We built graph search for Twitter --> allowing you to search your followers by location, interests, verification, bio keywords and more. It is really powerful.

It is great for brands looking for people but also really good for recruiting (search "engineer" or "developer" in bio keyword) and business travel (filter by a city when traveling there to see followers ) if you have a decent existing follower-base.

We will be rolling out more networks and more filters in the near future. But, I'd love the HN-community feedback!

You can also email me at Alex@SocialRank.com.

Calling this a "true graph search" is misleading. This product seems to only be a one-user-to-many-followers match, as opposed to one-user-to-many-followers-to-very-many-users.

(also, please don't have sockpuppet accounts comment on this submission)

Hey Max - if you request Market Intel you can do what you say.

Also- "sockpuppet"accounts are not me. The seq23 account is a friend that actually likes the product. Just told her I submitted it to HN and she did that on her own. She is a real person that runs partnerships at @BlackGirlsCode (her Twitter handle matches her HN handle- https://twitter.com/seq23)

Dig it. The "Export to twitter list" functionality in particular. Being able to not only sift through everything, but curate for the future is exactly what I want. Good stuff.

Woot. Thanks. Yea- we see a lot of people use us to "find people" on Twitter and then export to CSV or Twitter List or save the search to SocialRank so they can pull it up anytime.

Thanks!

It's fairly recently that my Twitter following has grown to the point of being too unwieldy to manage on my own but so far, SocialRank has helped a lot.

Thanks man. Any specific ways you've used it?

I like it! Something like this didn't exist already?

Thanks! Not really. I mean you can sort of do some of this stuff with expensive tools like Sprinklr or Sysmos - but my co-founder and I couldn't find a really simple, log in right away and sort + filter your followers.

For us, we see a bigger idea around helping brands and people manage their followers from all social media networks in one central location. Sort of like a Hootsuite for Followers (Hootsuite is a central/location dashboard helping you post to multiple networks, whereas we are the central location to help you pull in your followers from multiple locations).

There are a ton of tools out there to help you figure out what time of day to tweet and what content to push out. Then there are apps that help you do one or two things but we haven't found this out there. Even if Twitter builds it themselves, it will just make it easier for us to do a lot of this (we had to build a lot of it from scratch)and add more networks (Instagram is next).

Thanks for commenting!

I think this is one of the most brilliant products I've seen in a long time.

thankssss

Nice
