Configuring Keyword Trackers

Keywords are any set of one or more words that you can track on social media networks.

Setting keyword trackers allows you to monitor:

1. The number of mentions per day of each keyword
2. Demographics of users who’ve mentioned the keyword
3. Noticeable influencers who’ve mentioned the keyword recently
4. The most popular content around the keyword.

1. Add a New Keyword Monitor

From the Klear homepage, go to the Monitors box and choose Keywords:

Click the Plus sign to open the Keyword monitor configuration.

2. Name Your Keyword Tracker

Give your new Keyword Tracker a name.

The Tracker Name can be any combination of characters.

It’s best to name your Keyword Tracker with a relevant and easy to remember nickname.

3. Define the Keywords You Want to Track

Klear will track all mentions of the keywords you define.

Monitoring keywords will help you with understanding who is talking about these keywords, their demographics, what the top content around the subject is, and much more.
