The most underrated social media in the world, Twitter is considering offering a paid subscription service to its power users, according to sources. The premium service will feature new tools on the TweetDeck — the dashboard application for brands, journalists, news organizations and professionals. Twitter users have been posting screenshots of surveys and a mock-up of the advanced Twitter service, which shows advanced analytics tools, alerts for breaking news and additional insight on trends and activity of an account’s followers. “We regularly conduct user research to gather feedback about people’s Twitter experience and to better inform our product investment decisions,” says a Twitter representative.
Sources report that the company has yet to begin building the service and that it will be at least a few months until the official launch. The survey is implemented to help plan the blueprints and priorities of the enhanced service. The potential move could help strengthen revenue streams for the social media service, which has been facing declining advertising revenue and a slumping IPO. The core service of Twitter will remain free.
