How to Find Free and Custom Twitter Backgrounds

February 5, 2010 by David Olsen

Want to make your Twitter profile stand out from the crowd? Instead of using one of the default backgrounds that Twitter offers for you to use as the background for your Twitter profile, you can get a free, personalized or custom Twitter background from a variety of Web sites and designers.

A free Twitter background typically includes a design or image that can be used by anyone, but since it’s not included in the options offered through the Settings option of a Twitter user’s account, it takes a few more minutes to find and upload a free Twitter background from another site.

Personalized Twitter backgrounds can be free or require a fee. You can find Twitter backgrounds that you can simply insert your name and other personal information into, or you can find some Web sites that allow you to upload your own image and then insert your name and other information into.

A custom Twitter background is best for businesses and people who are trying to create a branded online presence. Custom backgrounds are designed for your specific needs and can only be used by you. Therefore, they have the highest price tag (but not unreasonable).

You can follow the links to check out my list of sites for free and custom Twitter backgrounds as well as my list of sites to find free Twitter buttons to promote your Twitter profile (and increase followers) on your blog.
