### What Account Monitor Does

Account Monitor tracks the latest posts from any X or Threads account you add. It surfaces top-performing content from the last 14 days, sorted by views or date, and sends you a daily email digest.

### Adding Accounts to Monitor

Follow these steps to start monitoring an account:

Steps:

1. Go to Tools → Account Monitor.
2. Select the platform: Twitter/X or Threads.
3. Type the account handle in the search box (e.g., elonmusk) and click Search.
4. Click the account card in the results to add it to your monitored list.
5. Repeat for up to the account limit on your plan.

### Viewing Monitored Content

The main panel shows tweets from the last 14 days for all monitored accounts. Sort by Views to find viral content, or by Date to see the latest posts.

Tip: Use Account Monitor to study what content formats and topics perform best for accounts in your niche. Feed those insights back into your Ghost Writer themes.
